The first step to bare-faced beauty is perfect skin, so don't skip the moisturizer. If you don't have perfect skin, don't sweat it. That's what concealer is for. Hit the undereye and any blemishes, but skip the heavy foundation. If you'd like a little blur for the whole face, a primer is a good option. Lastly, spritz some rosewater on for a dewy look and voila! Bare-faced beautiful face.

Blush and bronzer are a bare-faced beauty's best friend. Save the sparkle for your personality and keep the blush matte. You know how you look right after a workout and shower? Or after an afternoon walk on the beach? You're going for that look. So rub some blush on the apples of your cheeks, then add just a little liquid or cream highlighter to the tops of the cheekbones and forehead for that "inner" glow.

The key to a bare-faced lip is to keep it in the same color family as your real lip. You basically want it to look like you just bit your lips. Your best bets will be tinted balm or a stain just a shade or two darker than your own. Apply with your finger to get an organic look.

This is where it gets interesting. Models walked down the spring runway with an element, usually the eye, that stood out. The looks were all over the place, from natural taupe (work) to glitter (dinner) to bold-colored cat eye (club). How about adding a dot of white shimmer in the inner hollow or middle of your eyelid? Provocative. So, while it's not technically bare-faced beauty, it complements a bare face in the most gorgeous way.
