THE CLEAN GIRL LOOK

The

The clean-girl makeup look is all over TikTok and Instagram. If you haven’t seen it, the “clean girl” aesthetic is in essence, minimalist makeup. The look is focused on that barely-there appearance, so the less product, the better. It’s simple but the results are impactful! Here are the steps.

PRE-MAKEUP: SKINCARE

Using quality ingredients and being consistent with your skincare routine will not only leave your skin fresh-faced and set up a good base, but it’ll also reduce the amount of makeup you’ll need! Concealing blemishes, acne scars, or dark undereye circles is so much easier when you take care of your skin! (And don’t forget to wear SPF!).

1. PRIMER

Do NOT skip the primer! Primer creates a smoothing effect that enhances makeup coverage and helps your makeup stay on longer, both essential to the clean girl look. Rare Beauty’s Pore Diffusing Primer for the face and Urban Decay’s Eyeshadow Primer Potion for the eyes are good to start with!

2. FACE - Tinted Moisturizer

If you suffer from an oily face, you probably don’t like wearing heavy liquids on your face. That’s where tinted moisturizer comes in! It’s a sheer, lightweight alternative to foundation that can cover up and hydrate the skin. Bonus points if it has SPF!

Concealer

If you skipped tinted moisturizer, wear concealer instead. The NARS Soft Matte Complete Concealer is perfect for covering up any redness or blemishes!

Blush

Liquid blushes are perfect for natural and highquality blending- two things essential to the clean girl look!

4. EYES

Mascara is just one of those things that fits everyone differently, but completes the whoel look! A any mascara that is volumizing and longlasting is great for this look.

5. LIPS

Lip Oil

One of the most essential products to achieve this look is lip oil. They are the most hydrating things to put on our lips that are lightweight but still give the appearance of looking put-together and classy. Dior’s Lip Glow Oil is the most popular to achieve this!
