Au Natural

Hello blog world,
Ever since I started the cosmetic program at Seneca, I realized that I probably had to be at school without makeup at one point or another, just to make it easier for my peers to practice on a clean face.
So with that said, I needed to get used to the fact that I probably wouldn't be using makeup, might as well try it out when I go out, however I cheated and still used something when I went out in public.
No eye makeup at all! I tried it once yesterday and again today, it ain't that bad. Since I didn't have any eye makeup on, I decided to add a bit more blush than usual.
On a side note, I am so proud of myself for using the JS blush (fresh apricot) so quickly.

For the natural look, I just filled in my brows, did some light concealing under my eyes (with Sana yellow concealer, not pictured) and gave my lips a little bit of pink color.

I mixed the #1 colors together and applied it on the lower part of my cheek, and did the same with #2 but higher for a glow because the colors were lighter. It's supposed to imitate the pink cheeks you get after going inside from the cold.
I took the photos using my iphone which explains the washed out colors.

@Clover: Thankq~! I need to get used to less makeup XD

@Mary in Wonder: I was kinda weirded out without makeup, but it's easier if you try on a day where you don't see anyone you know

@Penelope: Thankq =) I thought it'd take forever too

@Kalai: Definitely, but it cuts out on getting ready time. I applied to work at Biotherm too, fingers crossed!

@Cinnabunnie: aww thankq

@cuttibebe: I think I need to switch to the "light" shade soon, I'm getting too pale in the winter @_@ but it's decent in terms of coverage, mainly tones down any redness, with a bit of slightly tinted powder it looks pretty smooth and not greasy at all.
