There is a time and place for extensive cosmetic use, and often times, a lazy day at home isn’t it. Just because you take a day off from makeup though, doesn’t mean you can’t still look and feel naturally beautiful.

 

 

Many of us are living less busy days now. But let’s be real, even when social distancing, we still have tasks and obligations that we must complete. Some of these tasks may look different (or perhaps even feel more difficult or stressful) than they used to, but obtaining an income, running a household, and monitoring and managing your finances, health, and other life-logistics are still necessities that we have to prioritize for our well-being.

 

 

These 3 simple skincare tips are for the days when you have a lot to tackle (or are taking a rest day) and you just gotta skip the makeup and go au naturelle in order to get your sh*t done, but also want to look and feel good. Taking 5 minutes or less to do these 3 steps will leave you feeling naturally beautiful everyday and bring life and health to your face no matter what condition your skin is in, how badly you need to get your brows done, or how tired your under eye area looks

Apply moisturizer + hydration

This will give your skin healthy looking color, texture, and luminosity. Have super problem prone or sensitive skin? Be sure to choose an unscented moisturizer that you know your skin reacts well to to decrease any chances of extra redness or irritation. To add extra hydration to the skin, apply a facial mist or toner before applying moisturizer.

Brush your brow hairs up

This will frame your face and keep your brow hairs from accidentally pointing downward and weighing down your eyes and face. If you’re not a fan of the brow lamination look, soften the look of the tops of your brow hairs by gently running the tip of the spoolie through only the very upper part of your brow hairs.

Apply lip balm

Not only will this keep you lips hydrated, applying lip balm will add moisture, luminosity, and bring out your natural lip color. Once your lip color is brought out, the color in your lips will bring out your eye color and a natural flush in your cheeks

What about fast and easy hairstyling?

Lean in to the natural texture of your hair. If you want an easy hair day, don’t fight your hair. Take time to identify which products, techniques, and styles you can get maximum impact from with minimum effort.

 

 

Looking good and and feeling good without makeup is about being comfortable, and embracing and working with ALL of your skin’s natural features, even the ones that you often cover with makeup.
