Sure, celebrities have that&nbsp;special gene that allows them to look amazing without an ounce of makeup on, but most of us aren&#39;t as fortunate when it comes to the &quot;I woke up like this&quot; look. Fortunately, there is a&nbsp;solution for&nbsp;that. No, not plastic surgery, but the &quot;no makeup&quot; makeup look,&nbsp;which elevates&nbsp;your natural beauty without going over the top, so you too can glow like a newborn cherub. Makeup artist Julija Biveiniene tells us how:&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Prepare your face

Because &quot;no makeup&quot; makeup uses a bare minimum of cosmetics, it is very important&nbsp;to have a complexion that is smooth and bright. Regular cleansing&nbsp;and moisturising is essential to that end, as is exfoliating every week to remove the layers of dead cells. Wait at least a few minutes after moisturising before applying any makeup.

&nbsp;

Use a light foundation

For the&nbsp;natural look, opt for a lighter foundation, preferably using water-based remedies, because&nbsp;they cover over imperfections without creating the dreaded mask effect.&nbsp;

If your complexion is already smooth (lucky you!), you can choose a BB or CC cream instead, and use concealer to hide dark circles and acne spots.

Try to avoid using bronzer, but if you can&#39;t go without, be sure to choose the right shade so you look naturally tanned rather than discoloured.&nbsp;

Blush will give your face a youthful touch&nbsp;&mdash; spread lightly over your cheekbones, the tip of your nose, your chin, and the cupid&#39;s bow over your lips.&nbsp;

Don&#39;t overdo the eyebrows

Your eyebrows are key, because they give your face expressiveness. Don&#39;t over do it, but comb your eyebrows and apply a colourless gel to achieve the right look. If your eyebrows are too light, then you can use a coloured gel, but choose a tone just a few shades darker than your natural one.&nbsp;

Go minimal on the eyes

Eye makeup isn&#39;t absolutely necessary here, but you can apply&nbsp;some mascara to your lashes to bring out the colour in your eyes, and a light&nbsp;shadow to your lids for even more radiance.&nbsp;

Highlight the outer corners of your eyes with a darker beige eyeshadow, and then apply a light-coloured, shimmery eyeshadow to the inner corner to make your eyes appear bigger.&nbsp;

Apply lip balm

To create the most natural look, do not paint your lips in bright colours. Instead, go for a lip balm with some shine so your pout looks plump.&nbsp;
