How to achieve a natural-looking complexion

Reveal your natural beauty with barely-there makeup. Clarins helps you discover the right products for your skin type and how to apply them correctly to create a flawless finish.

Using makeup to enhance your natural beauty
The first step to achieving a natural complexion is choosing products that are perfectly matched to your skin. When selecting your foundation, try using a sheer, light formula. The best way to get a natural, dewy effect is to pick the shade closest to your natural skin tone. BB creams or Skin Illusion Natural Radiance Foundation SPF 10 offer a luminous, radiant finish which keeps skin hydrated all day long.

How to apply natural-looking makeup
To create a natural look using makeup, follow the step-by-step Clarins makeup tutorials. Start by gently smoothing a liquid or powder foundation onto the chin and up to the forehead. Next, place blush close to the temple and work down the cheekbone towards the apples of your cheeks to give your complexion subtle colour. Blend carefully to keep it looking natural.

Open up your eye area by applying an eyeshadow in a light shade to your eyelids and finish by blending a darker shade into the contour of the eye. Apply mascara and outline the lips from the middle outwards with a nude lip shade using a lip brush.

Skin appears flawless, and free of imperfections.
