Effortless Spring Makeup In Just A Few Steps
If your desired spring makeup aesthetic is simple, radiant and effortless, we’ve found your ultimate inspiration.
Spotted on model and actress Emily Ratajowski, this makeup look combines flawless, glowing skin with subtle definition and neutral tones.
Here’s what you’ll need to recreate the look, plus some tips for nailing the natural finish.
1 Pick the right base
Ditch your heavy coverage, mattifying foundation. A light, glowing spring base calls for a formulation that will give medium coverage (let those freckles shine through!) and a dewy finish.
Try: Shiseido Synchro Glow Cushion
2 Conceal as needed
If you need to cover any redness, dark circles or pigmentation, spot-conceal instead of layering your foundation on thick all over. Lightly dab a concealer that matches your skin tone to cover those imperfections, and blend until you can’t see any lines.
Try: Bobbi Brown Instant Full Cover Concealer
3 Use a neutral shadow
A subtle wash of eyeshadow can elevate your beauty look, and picking a neutral tone will maintain the natural feel you’re after. Start by sweeping a soft taupe or brown across your entire lid, and for an extra hit of shimmer, use a glistening beige to highlight the inner corners of your eyes.

Highlight your way to radiance
Skip the matte bronzer and use just a highlighter to enhance your angles. Lightly dust a bronze-toned highlighting powder on your cheekbones, temples and down the bridge of your nose.
Try: Bobbi Brown Highlighting Powder in Bronze Glow
5 Define your lashes and brows
Use a lash-lengthening and defining mascara to finish off your eye makeup look, and shape and groom your brows with a powder that will give a natural finish.
Try: Dior Diorshow Plump ‘N’ Volume Mascara and Benefit Foolproof Brow Powder
6 Finish with some shine
Complete your dewy springtime look with a soft colour that leaves a natural shine on your lips.
