The monochromatic makeup it is beginner proof and it takes very few products to achieve it. If you like simple and beautiful makeup that takes little time, then this trend is for you.
What is monochrome makeup about? It is a style in which the same tone predominates in different parts of the face.† For example, choose the same color and apply it to the eyelids, cheeks and lips. It doesn’t have to be an exact shade, it can be a color range. For example the color pink, applied in different intensities. You can also combine product textures that keep the same black and white; that is, you can apply a texture of powder shadows on the eyes, but on the lips you can choose a glossy effect with a gloss.
My favorite part about creating monochrome makeup is that it is so recursive.† I can use a single product for different purposes, for example with a single blush I can do both the lids to create a smoky eye, the cheeks to add color and tan, and finally I can even apply that same blush on the lips, if it is a creamy texture. Simpler and more practical impossible!
Start by choosing the tone you want to emphasize in your makeup, my favorites to create a monochromatic look are orange, pink, peach and brown tones.† Prepare your skin with the usual steps you do for makeup, I recommend a good routine from skin care and also use a primer or pre-base so that the makeup looks fresh and lasts longer.
You can apply foundation, or if you prefer a simpler and less busy style, you can apply a bb cream, or even just your sunscreen with a little color will be enough to even out the skin tone. This makeup trend tries to make skin look juicy and natural. Once you’ve prepared your face, the imperfections you want to cover will be neutralized. It’s time to apply your chosen color to the different points of the face.
My favorite way to do this kind of monochromatic makeup is to use a compact or cream blush, orange or pink.† These colors are very versatile and look beautiful combined in different areas of the face.
Prep your lids with concealer so that the blush blends better, as if it were an eyeshadow. Apply the blush to the crease and the mobile eyelid and create a smoky effect. You can do this with your fingers or with an eyeshadow brush.
When your eyes are the intensity of the color you want, you can apply the blush to the conventional point, which is the cheeks. Apply to the apples of the cheek for a more youthful effect, or if you prefer a lifting technique, you can apply the blush from the center of the cheek towards the temple, to make the face look more styled and lifted. to show off.
To finish the monochromatic make-up, apply a little bit of blush to your lips and then a layer of gloss or liquid shine, so that the color of the blush pigment integrates better with the lips. You can also use a gloss or lipstick, which is the same tone you wear on the rest of your face. This makeup style is simple, easy and very flattering! Which color are you going to try?
