Hi everyone! In today's video I'm going to show you the power of no makeup makeup look on brown skin
0:04
I'll be sharing a lot of makeup tricks and tips in today's video. I'll show you how I've been using a minimum of products to hide my under eye dark circles
0:13
This is an updated version of my no makeup makeup look that I've been doing lately for summers
0:18
So without further ado, let's begin! Today's video title is completely inspired by NikkieTutorials' The Power of Makeup
0:25
but I'm giving my own brown skin girl twist to it. Before I show you the makeup, I'll do some skin prep
0:30
Whenever I've talked about makeup, I've always talked about skin prep. When you do your skin prep properly, your skin looks healthy
0:38
Also, if you're doing makeup after doing skin prep and skincare, makeup sits well, it looks good
0:44
Do a proper skin prep and skincare routine according to your skin type and skin concern
0:48
And honestly, before starting this video, I was a bit emotional about my skin
0:52
Not because my skin is behaving bad or I'm looking bad, whatever
0:56
I was happy the way my skin was looking today. I was just like, wow, I only have one acne on my face
1:03
Because for the past three weeks almost, my skin was not behaving well
1:07
I was getting acne every single day. There was a point when I had like a lot of acne right here
1:12
you can see the acne marks right here. But now those acnes are gone
1:16
There are multiple reasons for acne, seriously. And one of the major reasons I get acne is because I have PCOD, so I do get hormonal acne
1:25
And you guys will say, control your PCOD, Shalini, you'll get less acne
1:29
I know that. I'm trying guys, I'm trying to not stress about it
1:33
I'm trying to have a healthy lifestyle, a healthy diet, trying to work out
1:37
But even after doing so many things, sometimes, something or the other remains missing
1:41
And then I get acne. I've always shown the reality of my skin, how my skin is behaving, how I feel
1:48
And I think because of this, you always find this kind of content very relatable
1:52
And that is what I want. I want this channel to be informative also and relatable also
1:56
So that you guys know, you know you're not alone. I'm with you. I also have bad days, good days
2:02
I'm sorry, I got a little off topic. So this is how my skin has been looking
2:05
I have nothing on my face. I haven't even washed my face. Let's start the skin prep by washing the face
2:11
To wash my face, I'll use Derma Wipes Hydra Cleanser. It's a very good gentle cleanser
2:16
I've already washed my face and now I'll take a little cleanser
2:19
This much is enough. And then I will start massaging it into my face in circular motion
2:24
It's an oatmeal based cleanser. It is good for all skin types. And it will also suit sensitive and acne prone skin
2:30
Which is mine. I have extremely sensitive and acne prone skin. This cleanser is also very gentle on acne
2:35
It actually helps to prevent breakout. It's a very good everyday gentle cleanser
2:39
You know, this cleanser is very good for daytime. Let me go wash my face
2:42
I'll be right back. I am back. Now let's pad the skin properly
2:46
Okay, next up I'm moisturizing my lips. And now I'll be using 10% Niacinamide Serum
2:51
This will acne marks and acne scars. My toner ran out a week ago
2:55
And my skin is okay with not using toner lately. And for moisturizer, I'll be using Neutritem Moisturizing Lotion with Vitamin E
3:02
This will moisturize the skin and at the same time, it acts as a primer
3:05
The makeup sits on the skin so well after using this moisturizer. And this much is enough
3:10
The amount I showed you. And this entire tube can last you for about 3-4 months
3:14
Trust me, it contains so much product. And also, no matter what skin type you have, you have to use moisturizer
3:20
The active moisturizer I used before this was 10% Niacinamide Serum. This moisturizer will help lock the benefits of that
3:27
The skin has absorbed the moisturizer well. There is no oiliness or greasiness on my face
3:32
Talking about the moisturizer, I also want to mention Dermawives Moisturizing Lotion
3:36
This is basically a body lotion which is made to treat extreme dryness
3:40
If you look at my elbows, you can see how dry my elbows can be
3:46
This is an all-season problem. That's one of the most neglected areas of my body
3:50
And this moisturizer has been doing wonders for that area. I apply this on the area where I take a shower
3:55
And throughout the day, that area remains hydrated. I don't have to regularly reapply my moisturizer
4:01
That's the best part about this. Because this is meant for extreme dry, itchy and sensitive skin which I have
4:06
If you regularly use a razor in your body, definitely give this a try
4:10
Because it will save you from extreme inflammation and itchiness. So if you're interested in Dermawives and Neutroderm's product
4:15
I'm going to provide links for them in the description box below. You can check them out. Okay, last but not the least, let's just apply sunscreen
4:21
I've removed my sunscreen using the 3-finger method. And then I'm going to apply on my face, on my forehead, nose and neck
4:29
Do not forget the neck area. I also want to ask you guys if you want to see my top 7 or 8 sunscreens
4:35
Because I think I have that much amount of sunscreen. That's my easy peasy skin prep
4:39
I'm going to wait for 10 minutes so that my skincare gets absorbed and sink in
4:42
After that, I can start my makeup. It's been 10 minutes. Now I can start with the makeup routine
4:47
I'm not going to use any foundation on my face. But I'm going to use concealer. I'm going to use less concealer than I used to
4:55
And I'm going to hide my under eye dark circles. The pigmentation that's around my lips
4:59
I'm going to show you concealer tricks. So I'm going to use Maybelline HD1 Concealer in the shade Caramel
5:04
When I tell you this is one of my favourite concealers of all the time. You have to believe me
5:08
Because you guys can see that this is a 3MT Maybelline concealer
5:12
And this is the new one that I opened recently. So this is one way I like to use this concealer
5:16
I apply it directly to my under eye. And then I will blend it. And another way, I will use some concealer in the back of my hand
5:24
And I will use an orange colour corrector. With the help of a flat eye shadow brush, I'm going to blend these two
5:32
I'm making a peach colour corrector basically. And then I'm going to apply it wherever I need to cancel the darkness under my eyes
5:39
Especially this area. This area. And I'm applying it around my lips as well
5:44
I like to use an orange colour corrector as well. It also works really well
5:48
That helps to cancel out the darkness. But you have to blend the orange colour corrector really well
5:54
And now I'm going to blend this. After applying the concealer, I'm going to show you how much difference it makes
5:58
And how less product you have to use. I get a lot of questions like this
6:03
Who has time to do colour correction in an everyday makeup look? You're doing an everyday makeup look
6:07
You don't want to look ashy. You don't want to look as if your foundation is not matching your skin
6:12
That's why I do colour correction even for my everyday makeup looks. I've blended it so easily with the help of a ring finger
6:18
Can you see? You can already see a huge difference. The darkness under my eyes is lessening
6:22
So after using the colour corrector, I have to wait for a minute. So that it settles properly
6:26
After that, I can use my concealer. While it's settling, I'll show you the concealer I'm going to use
6:31
This is the Pack Takeover concealer in the shade Birthday Suit. There is a slight colour difference between the caramel and the birthday suit
6:38
I feel like when I use the caramel, just as it is. It kind of looks darker on my skin tone
6:43
Especially on this area of my face. It's good for under eyes. But when I use the birthday suit on this area of my face, it looks good
6:52
So basically, I'm telling you that there is no one colour of my skin. My forehead is darker than the rest of my face
6:57
My cheeks are lighter than my under eye area. And I don't want to use foundation or concealer all over my face
7:02
I'll be only using on the centre of my face. That's why I'm using this colour
7:06
I don't want to use much product. Just here. Here. And on this area
7:12
Because I have under eye bags here. So I'm hiding them. And around the nose
7:16
And where I see acne marks, I'll apply it on top of that. Okay
7:21
And around the lips. Also my T-zone area. Just to balance everything out
7:26
And then with the help of my concealer brush, I'll start blending it
7:30
So tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap. And I'll drag it upwards
7:34
And just lightly on top of the eyelid. If you want to see less pigmentation on your eyelid
7:40
If you have pigmentation around the eyelid. Then you can apply peach colour corrector on top of the eyelid
7:44
And now look at the difference. Where is the under eye dark circles? I used such a small amount of product
7:50
And the under eye dark circles are 70% less. It's not visible to a large extent
7:54
Let me do this side of my face off camera. I'll be right back. Okay, I'm back
7:58
I did the other side. I didn't hide the acne marks here
8:02
I don't want to hide everything. I can see the acne marks. Let it be. Before setting the face, I'll use a blush
8:07
For that I'll use Cuffs and Lashes It's Dewy Blush. This is in the shade 2022
8:12
This is a beautiful coral peach colour. It looks beautiful in summers
8:16
So what I'm going to do. I'm going to apply two dots here. And one here
8:20
And with the help of a damp beauty sponge. I will start blending this. You can use a brush if you want
8:25
This much blush is enough. Trust me, this is so pigmented. So tap, tap, tap, tap, tap
8:29
I'm blending it. And then on the cheeks. With the help of the dome side
8:33
I'm bringing the blush. Whatever is left. I'll take it to the hairline
8:38
So I'm making a C here. Same thing on the other side. One dot here
8:42
One dot here. On the nose. And on the chin. And let's blend
8:47
Trust me, less is more. You can build it later. So always start with less products
8:52
And you must be thinking. Why didn't I apply a concealer on my forehead
8:56
Because my forehead is darker than the rest of my face. So I already get a natural contour
9:01
So I don't need any foundation or concealer. I've blended the chin area
9:05
Now when I will set my face. This is going to get lighter. So one way I like to set my face
9:09
Is mixing two different tinted compact powders. This is Fit Me's Medium 25 and Medium Deep 30
9:14
If you mix both of them. It becomes a very good everyday tinted loose powder
9:18
For my skin tone. So I've already mixed both the tinted powders. In this empty loose powder box
9:23
Now before setting the face. I'm going to use my concealer brush. Look up. And do tap, tap, tap, tap
9:27
To avoid any creasing. I'm doing this method. After that I'll set
9:32
If I didn't do this. And directly use compact powder. Or loose powder
9:36
The crease line would have been set. And it wouldn't have looked good. And with a small powder brush
9:41
I'll pick my tinted loose powder. Tap off the excess. And look up
9:47
And set. Look up and set. Look down and set the eyelid area as well
9:54
I'm setting the area around the nose. Because I tend to get super, super oily right here
9:59
And around the lips. This is the main area. Now I'm setting the blush as well
10:03
With the help of this. You can see my blush has become lighter. And whatever product is left
10:07
I've set the chin. I've applied it on the neck as well. I've dusted it on the forehead
10:12
Now whether I want to apply eyeshadow or not. Depends upon my mood. But if I define the crease line
10:16
Then it looks more put together. The entire no makeup makeup look. So for this I'll use
10:21
A color of such eyeshadow. That is very close to my own skin tone. Like this color
10:25
You can see. It's a matte light brown color. And on the circular motion
10:29
I'm applying it on the crease line. Again this is the optional step
10:33
You can definitely skip this step. But next step is something. That I definitely like to do
10:38
And I would highly recommend you to do that as well. If you have slightly hooded eyes
10:41
That is taking a dark matte brown color. I'm mixing a little bit of black also
10:46
And using that as an eyeliner. Applying that very close to my lash line
10:50
I'm doing this because. I want that eyeliner. Or smokey eyeliner effect
10:54
I have a very oily eyelid. So I can't wear eyeliner for a long time
10:58
Okay let's do mascara now. Before that I'll curl my eyelashes. So in eyelash color
11:02
I'm taking the entire eyelashes. I'll lift the eyelash color a little bit. I'll just press couple of times
11:08
And look how nicely my eyelashes are lifted. Let's do this side as well
11:12
For mascara I'm using. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara. This gives a very nice lengthening effect
11:17
And gives a voluminous effect to the eyelashes. I'll go on the stroke like this
11:22
And here up. And here in this direction. So this side. Upwards
11:27
And in this direction. I'm using another mascara for my lower lashes. This is a waterproof mascara
11:32
My lower eyelashes are long. So if I apply a non-waterproof mascara
11:36
It sticks to the lashes. It does not look good. In summers waterproof mascara is a must
11:41
I know removing it is a hectic. I'm okay to face that struggle of removing the mascara
11:46
Then having a panda eyes. I'm applying the same waterproof mascara on top. Doubling up my mascara
11:50
Because the mascara I applied earlier. That was not waterproof. Now I'm using a matte peach colour blush
11:54
I'm going to layer up my blush. I'm also applying a liquid blush. I'm applying a powder blush
11:58
Because when the powder blush is removed. Then I'll have a liquid blush within
12:02
And it will give me a within glue. It's just an optional step. If you feel like you've already applied too much blush
12:08
You can just skip this step. And now I'm going to do my eyebrows
12:11
They are my prominent features. I look forward to do my eyebrows
12:15
So first I'm combing. Using the brush side of the eyebrow pencil. Okay
12:19
I've combed the upper stroke. And here and here. Where there is a sparse area
12:23
I've started filling it in with a light stroke. Creating a straight line
12:28
I'm giving a stroke that is just like an eyebrow. Then I've combed downwards
12:32
And filled it here. Where there is no eyebrow hair at all. Then I've combed upwards
12:38
And voila! Eyebrow filling is done. Can you see the difference on my eyebrows? So I'll come back after doing this side off camera. Okay
12:44
I'm back. Now I'm going to set my eyebrows. Using eyebrow mascara
12:48
So I've given an upper stroke here and here. And here and here in an angle
12:52
And the routine that I'm showing you. I can create it in 10 minutes. Because I'm used to this routine
12:56
I've created this more than like 200-300 times. And my hands work automatically
13:01
Look how beautiful my eyebrows are looking. Now I'm going to set my entire face. Using a matte setting spray
13:06
This is a very important step. If I skip this step. Then the makeup will last for at least an hour on my face
13:11
So I closed my eyes. Put my hand on top of my eyes. Because I don't want to mess up my mascara and my eye look
13:16
And then. And quickly fan, fan, fan, fan, fan, fan. After that I'll take my beauty sponge
13:21
From where I applied the blush. I'll leave that side and from the other side. I'll just press it into my skin
13:26
Like that. What will happen with that. The shininess will go away from my face. Which I used the setting spray
13:30
So whatever was visible after that. Also the setting spray will be pressed nicely into my skin
13:34
Now it's time for lipstick. I'm showing you one of my favorite go-to nude lipstick combo
13:38
So I'm going to take a chocolate brown lip liner. I'm going to outline my lips
13:42
Then I'm filling my lips with it as well. Especially the outer corner
13:47
Then I'm going to use this Mauve Nude Pink color lipstick. This is by Eba Cosmetics
13:51
Even though this is a liquid lipstick. It has a very comfortable formula. I'm going to apply this on the center
13:55
After applying it on the center. I'm going to purse my lips once. After that, wherever I applied the lip liner
14:00
I'll apply this lipstick on top of that. It's going to take like a couple of seconds to dry
14:03
Purse my lips again. Like that. It's completely matte. It is also very comfortable to wear
14:09
And with that I completed this look. I think the best part about this look. Was the amount of concealer I used
14:13
I used so less concealer on my face. And it looks like I put a lot of effort
14:18
But it is all about using different techniques. To create the look. And knowing the technique
14:21
And mastering the technique. Over the years. I've been trying to reduce the step
14:25
And reduce the amount of makeup. I use on everyday basis. And not trying to cake up my face
14:30
Or hide my acne marks and acne scars. And it's time to actually show. The power of no makeup makeup look
14:34
By removing half of the makeup from my face. Makeup remover in a cotton pad
14:39
Let's do this. And this is the power of no makeup makeup look
14:43
Being comfortable in my own skin. Trying to enhance my best features
14:47
Keeping the makeup very minimal and wearable. This is my with makeup side
14:51
I love this side. And this is my without makeup side. I love this side
14:56
So whether you want to wear makeup or not. How much product you want to apply. It's a personal choice
15:00
But I like wearing makeup. And sometimes I don't like wearing makeup. So you do you
15:04
You be you. Let me know in the comment section. How did you like today's video. I'm going to see you guys pretty soon
15:08
With a brand new content. Bye everyone. Take care
