3 Ways to Soften a Makeup Look

Sometimes, with a harsh smokey eye, a bold lip, or a dramatic cat eye it can overpower your face and that is the last thing you want from your makeup! These are the top 3 ways to soften your makeup look!




3. Blush 
Blush can sometimes overtake your face, make you look sickly, or work against your makeup look. While this picture is an exaggeration, the sad truth is it happens. To soften this look is simple. Remember that pesky foundation that stays on your brush after application don't wipe it off just yet. After applying blush pat the foundation over your existing blush. The blush is still visible, however it looks like a layer of skin between you and the blush making it a more natural look.



2. Bronzer
If you don't already use bronzer it is a great option. Sometimes foundation can be overbearing and foundation can bring the sun kissed glow back, if you apply it correctly that is. Above the brown areas are where you apply. It is basically used for the frame of your face. Think of it as adding some dark to the areas that sun naturally would hit you.







3.Eyeliner 
This can soften your look immensely. When you use blackest black eyeliner, a thick line, or a dramatic cat eye you may need a softer touch. Using a black eye shadow and a defining brush to set your eyeliner for a softer feel. Another way is to Take a white eye shadow or eyeliner and place it at the bottom outer corner of your eye to brighten and again add a softer look.

I hope you enjoy this. I thought this was necessary as many people are beginning to get back into fall makeup these are ways to soften your looks and ease into fall.
