Healthy Make Up Tips For a
Great Look



If you want to look great, healthy make up is the way to go.

Women in general tend to over wear makeup but overdoing it can make your face look gaudy.

Make up shouldn't clog pores and make you break out. It should protect your skin, enhance your skin tone, and not be apparent. It should create harmony (peace, love) in the way you look.

Healthy makeup and healthy skin go together like peas and carrots. Any make up that cakes or looks heavy on your face! So not cool! Healthy make up is a basic step for a healthy look but a clear complexion needs to start from the inside out.

For your skin to look natural, be sure to get the essential vitamin supplements your skin requires, eat nutritious foods, and drink lots of clean, pure water to help flush toxins out of your body.

If you take the right vitamins, eat the right foods, and plenty of drink water, your skin will look hydrated, healthy, and more radiant too. The makeup you wear should compliment your face, not overwhelm it.

Healthy Make Up Foundations

Sometimes, chemicals in makeup can irritate your skin and cause skin disruption's (like zits or pimples) but most women never have problems with them. After all, they are especially formulated for skin application. If you have problems with your makeup or develop sensitivities, you can opt for makeup products that are organic or chemical free. Whatever type of makeup you choose to use, remember that sometimes less is better. Just the basics will do most of the time.

Makeup foundation is one thing you should never leave home without wearing. It keeps your skin protected from the environment and you just never know who you might run into! As an added bonus, if you are wearing healthy make up foundation, your skin will always look finished and blended! If you want your skin to look totally natural, opt for sheer foundations, tinted moisturizers, or mineral foundations.

The foundations you choose can make or break your look. If you don't have the right foundation, the rest of your make up won't look right! It need not be visible. Yet rather it should realistically be invisible to the rest of the world. It should make your skin look normal and natural, not fake and weird.

Any foundation make up you use should blend into your natural skin tone and be virtually impossible to detect.

Healthy Make Up Steps for a Healthy Glow



  • Clean your face first. Your face needs to be clean and fresh before any makeup application. Wash your face, then use an astringent or skin toner to remove dead skin cells and to reduce large pores.

  • Always apply a good facial lotion for daily skin care. Use them as your base, allow them to dry, (about 10 minutes), then apply a skin serum over it. Serum's really make foundation application a lot easier, whether you use creams, liquids, or minerals! Olay Regenerist is a good comparable serum to use at a lower cost than other brands. It really helps your makeup just glide right on.

    For those of you who can afford more expensive serum's, Estee Lauder Idealist is heavenly! and works extremely well. Its got a great lemony fresh smell! (There is just something about it.) However, it's also got a fairly high price tag for initial purchase, but it does last a long time if you can afford to pay it forward. If you can't afford it, you can still get great results with Olay Regenerist Serum. It feels just as smooth and clean and you'll love how it works!

  • Apply the foundation of your choice. Then apply a blush or bronzer to your cheek bones. Add a bit of lipgloss or an beige or earth-toned lipstick and you will have a healthy glow! You just don't need a lot of makeup to look natural and fresh!

    Healthy Makeup Tips

  • If you really want to go 100% natural, try organic beauty products. Organics are the latest trend for people who want to go green, and be more environmentally friendly. Organic makeup is really the cream of the crop in healthy make up!

  • For a natural look, use eyeshadow colors that blend well with your complexion! If you don't wear shadows, you ought to try them! Of course, different colors look different on everyone, so you should know what colors look best for your skin tone. If you want to try different colored shadows but you don't want to invest a lot of money to try them, makeup kits. These are a great way to s-t-r-e-t-c-h your dollars!

  • If you use mascara, use colors that blend well with your eye color. Neutral mascara colors are clear, black, and brown, but if you like more color shades, try colored mascaras like Covergirl Eyelights. These give a natural pop to your eyes. Any makeup that looks natural is healthy make up that always makes a hit!

  • Blush is a must have if you like natural, healthy make up. Even in the dead of winter, it can give your complexion a natural glow. Use pink, peach, or bronzers for sun kissed, vibrant looking skin. Then blend, blend, blend with a good natural makeup brush!

  • Don't forget your luscious lips. For a clean natural look, use glosses or lip plumpers in neutral colors. Pinks, peaches, and nude colors look totally natural and are a must-have! To get the best bang for your bucks, buy lip gloss sets.

  • Remember that all mineral makeup is made from natural ingredients (zinc oxide) that are good for your skin and won't clog pores, but ultimately the choice is up to you. If you have a favorite brand, stick with it and you'll be disappointed less often and save your money. No woman likes to throw money away on makeup that sucks. Mineral make up works well and saves a ton of time when you get ready for your day.

    Some makeup products are more expensive to buy initially, but are exceptional. As a general rule, you get what you pay for and quality is sometimes much more important than quantity. This is especially true if you have sensitive skin and want a brand name you can trust. Most quality products also last a good long time!

    You just don't have to wear a lot of makeup to look totally fantastic, if you take good care of your skin, get enough rest, exercise, and eat nutritious foods regularly!

    You will be doing yourself a big favor by using healthy make up for a more natural look. You’ll look great and so will your skin!
