Hello, black queens! Are you constantly searching for new makeup looks to try? With being beautiful as you already are, a natural makeup look is a perfect choice! At times, we can get tired of bold and bright makeup looks. So, if you are endlessly searching for a makeup style that enhances your beauty, a natural makeup routine will suit you best. 

Do you desperately need that no-makeup look? Keep reading to find out ways you can look completely natural and sexy at the same time! 

Apply The Blackest Black Mascara

Mascara has been a go-to makeup product for me since middle school. What I love about black mascara is the natural look it'll give to your eyelashes. So, if you are looking to add extra length and volume to your natural lashes, mascara is a great option! Depending on the brand of mascara, it's usually affordable and can last for many hours! Searching for a mascara that won't wash off immediately? Purchase a waterproof mascara (it's tricky to wash off). 

Popular mascara brands include Maybelline, L'Oreal, and Covergirl. With so many mascara brands to choose from, use mascaras that are convenient for you. 

Speaking of mascara brands, when you apply the mascara to your eyelashes, make sure to use light and gentle strokes. When you apply the mascara harshly, it can leave a mess on your eyelids and eyelashes. Therefore, take the time to stroke each eyelash. Since you are going for a natural look, use 1 or 2 coats. If you want a more dramatic look, you can use more coats (I prefer the dramatic look).

Apply Some Shimmery LipGloss

I've been in love with wearing lipgloss since my high school years. Applying lipgloss can give you a glamourous and natural look for your lips. If you want to enhance your lips to give them a shiny and bare look, apply a thin layer of clear lipgloss. If you want a shinier and fuller look, apply thicker layers of lipgloss (I love lipgloss!) Choose a brand of lipgloss that works best for you and stick to it. 

There are also many benefits to wearing lipgloss. Besides giving you a sexy and natural makeup look, it can prevent chapped lips; especially during bone-chilling weather. Therefore, if you aren't carrying lip balm with you, you'll always have your lipgloss! It's easy to apply and will give you a beautiful look. 

To add, you can use a calm shade of pink lipgloss if you want a natural look.

Wear A Nude Color Lipstick

Lipsticks are easy and fun to apply. If you are looking for a bare and glamourous look for your lips, wear nude-colored lipsticks. I prefer blue and purple lipsticks, but this is more of a bold and vibrant makeup look. So, to keep your lips looking natural, you should avoid bright and bold colors like orange and yellow. Instead, choose lipstick colors like beige, browns, and light pinks. 

Just like lipgloss, there are many benefits to wearing lipsticks as well. Lipsticks can add definition to your lips if applied with lip liner. It can also protect your lips from harmful sun rays and provide hydration to your lips. 

Choosing the right nude shade of lipstick can give you that no-makeup look you've been dying for!

Fill In Your Eyebrows & Create The Perfect Arch 

I'm not really a fan of filling in my eyebrows; it's always been a difficult task. Although it may have been difficult for me, it won't be for you. When filling in your eyebrows, use a creamy and natural-colored eyebrow pencil such as dark brown. Depending on your skin tone, you should stay away from black eyebrow pencils. Black eyebrow pencils won't give you a natural look (unless you want your eyebrows to like a permanent marker). 

You want to start with clean and freshly waxed eyebrows. This way, it will make it easier for you to fill in your brows. As you are filling in your eyebrows, use gentle and light strokes. If you apply the eyebrow pencil too heavily, your eyebrows will look very thick and unnatural. Make sure to blend the pencil and your natural hair with an eyebrow brush. Once you are finished, you can clean up any fill-in errors with a concealer of your choice.

It can also reduce blemishes and brighten your skin. Also, according to Skinkraft, skin serums target skin concerns such as uneven skin tone, redness, and sensitivity. 

Have I convinced you enough to purchase a face serum for your skin? If you are looking to keep your skin natural and tight, without having to use foundation, use a face serum.
