The best makeup looks always seem to make you look effortless and photo-ready. Whether you’re a pro or beginner, the perfect makeup look is essential to stand out. Having an idea of what look you want to pull off is vital. The possibilities are endless, from winged liners and crisp cut creases. There is always an inspiration to draw from: runways, Instagram models, sassy chic fashionistas, you name it! Here are 10 makeup looks for the perfect glow that will make you glamorous!
The perfect minimalist look is a go-to for everyday wear. It is simple, dewy, and youthful. You can never go wrong with this makeup look. It gives laid back but also “I woke up like this.” Although it’s a bit of work to achieve this look, less is more and requires minimal eye makeup. You only add slight blush for a natural glow; keep it simple with a touch of mascara to make your eyes pop. Also, you could add a tinted or clear lip gloss to boost this look.
The perfect glow can take a while, and having that option of a pretty natural beat with a pop of color is a must for those times when you don’t want to do too much but want to look beautiful. This makeup look requires little to no effort, and it is a straightforward application. Add a little foundation here and there, and you’re almost through. Contour if you’d like and make a statement with your eyepiece, and it is always nice to have a nice soft shade lip to top the look off.
Are you a fan of exquisite, fierce makeup looks? Then this look is definitely for you because it just screams icon. This is a beautiful look to get you noticed from the diamonds’ placements and the bold but straightforward color contrast that gives off a celebrity vibe to it. You want to go with those soft chics yet elegantly bold colors and create a cut crease for this look. Your eyebrows don’t have to be too dark for this look but still carve them to your perfection. Contour and add your blush to really carve out your facial features. Don’t forget the lips, and you’re done.
I love an excellent sunkissed look! It gives a nice glowy goddess appearance. And the fluffy brows totally add to it. A sun-kissed makeup style does wonders for the summer because the reflection from some natural light creates the perfect glow. It’s also worth trying out different colors with this type of look. For this, you want to go with a lovely shade of pink with gold undertones, but the choice is yours. You can still achieve this look with any color as long as it’s not too bold because we’re going for a more neutral-toned effortless style combo.
This look is bold, sassy, and colorful and is for those who want to spice things up. If you’re all about the drama, this is usually the makeup you would go for. Bright colors would work best to achieve a look similar or exactly like this to get the most outstanding results. Also, work with an eyeshadow base to get the most out of the pigments. Nice fully shaded eyebrows and your favorite blush would work for this.
A cat-eye look really draws attention to the eyes, and if you like a sharp carved-out eye, this is it. The makeup is simple, and that’s for a reason, and like they say, the eyes are the windows to the soul. In this case, the perfect glow for that runway model vs. sexy seductress appeal. The look is edgy and easy to achieve all you need is your favorite liquid liner. Make up your face with foundation, blush, and contour like you usually would. If you find it hard to create the winged shape, use a piece of tape in the corner of your eye; I find that this works. Also, follow the natural curvature of your eye shape for the inner corners.
Everyone has to try a confident, bold red lip. It’s a power statement, and it looks great on almost anyone. You just have to make sure you line those lips for the best contrast and color combo. If you want to go bolder, use a darker lip pencil shade and vice versa to achieve the look you like the most. And it is up to you how heavy you want your foundation.
Nude makeup looks are absolutely stunning! They are not too bold and not too simple, and they can be worn for literally any occasion or outfit style. To get this look, all you need is those neutral colors that work with your skin tone, and make sure you don’t choose colors too light, so you don’t wash yourself out completely. Go for colors that compliment your skin and transform your natural beauty. Remember to have fun and experiment!
Go bold or go home! A throwback look is always a good choice. And the ’70s was all about glitter. Who doesn’t love glitter? This look has the perfect amount of shine, and it’s a great example of the perfect retro style. The natural brows compliment this makeup look. If you want a similar look to this, you want to start off with a medium to full coverage foundation and add that translucent powder under the eyes for the highlight effect.
Glitz, glam, gold absolutely radiant! I feel like everyone should have a makeup look like this to show off a bit. This look is versatile, and the metallic eye and warm browns really enliven the features. You don’t have to have the exact colors to complete this look. Any metallic color scheme works and could make anyone drop-dead gorgeous! Just add a nude or clear lip gloss for a nice sultry feel.
