Now that summer is coming to a close we are ready to celebrate Labor Day! Labor Day is celebrated in honor of hard working Americans. Whether it’s hot or cold during the season these simple tips and tricks for natural glam makeup looks, and natural makeup tips, will help you look your best!
NATURAL GLAM MAKEUP LOOK ONE: Natural Eyes; Glam Lips.
First you’ll need a good face primer. I recommend Au Natural’s Semi-Matt Powder Foundation. This will lock the moisture in if you have dry skin and lock in/control face oils if you have oily skin.
Apply white or silver eyeshadow on your eyelid only. Use BH Cosmetics Aurora Lights Palette. Apply Mac Retro Lipstick Ruby Woo. Lastly, Apply Au Natural’s Vegan Mascara.
This look gives you natural eyes with a splash of red for the glam on your lips!

NATURAL GLAM MAKEUP LOOK TWO: Sun-kissed Metallics for Glam Eyes; Blushy Berry for a Natural Lip
Apply Au Natural’s Semi-Matt Powder Foundation. Use BH Cosmetics Golden Twilight Palette for eyes. Apply a shimmering eyeshadow shade of bronze or gold. Lastly apply Au Natural’s Vegan Mascara along with a natural berry shade of lipstick or gloss. Try Au Natural’s High Luster Lip Gloss in Magnolia.
NATURAL MAKEUP TIP 1: Rub an Ice Cube on Your Face
Rub an ice cube all over your face before you apply makeup. It helps to close the pores to reduce redness. It also makes your makeup look last longer. This hack also acts as a toner.
NATURAL MAKEUP TIP 2: De-Clumping Mascara
If your mascara is dried out and clumpy, drop a few drops of eye saline solution into the bottle. Shaking and swirling it will help restore the life of your mascara.

MAKEUP REMOVAL TIP 1: Witch Hazel and Olive Oil
Mix 2 oz of witch hazel and 2 oz of extra virgin olive oil to help break up makeup for removal. Makeup removal should always be gentle on your skin and not cause any type of irritation or dehydration. This mixture of the witch hazel and EVOO will give you cleansing and moisturizing.
This will help create a perfect palate for your natural glam makeup looks!
MAKEUP REMOVAL TIP 2: Steam Before You Clean
Use steam to loosen up your makeup before cleansing it off your face. Run hot water in your sink or a regular bowl and let the steam rise to your face. Steam will open up your pores and loosen any makeup you have on so you can begin to remove it.
Remember, you can’t have a glam makeup look the next day if you don’t cleanse well the night before.
ALL NATURAL MAKEUP AFTERCARE: MOISTURIZE!
After gentle and carefully removing your makeup use a moisturizer or serum you’d like to use to keep your skin firm becoming dried out. Watch for next month’s article where I talk about some easy, DIY natural moisturizing techniques for your skin AND HAIR!
