Happy Friday, everyone!
I’m here with a blast from the past… why? I have got a wedding to go to this weekend and I needed a refresher course in getting that dewey, fresh-faced look that I LOVE. Sydney to the rescue! This look is amazing on anyone, and I plan to WORK IT, SISTA~! – Bobbi
I’ve gotten requests in the past for demonstrating my daily make-up routine. Heaven knows why, ’cause most of the time I try and go for the “I’m not wearing any” look. Guess I fooled, oh … NO ONE. But that’s OK. Cause today I’m spilling my guts and showing you my 6 step daily routine for natural looking beautification. Great on its own … or as a base for more dramatic looks.
Step 1. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. This is key for getting that dewy glow. Personally, I don’t have a favorite facial lotion … sometimes I even use body lotion {eek! BAD SYDNEY}, but the point is to just moisturize. Then, I like to use a little foundation primer {I use bareMinerals Prime Time} which LITERALLY goes on like silk and doesn’t leave you looking oily or overly shiny. Just evenly toned and dewy. And then I like to smother my lips in the super moisturizing {but with a pretty pink color} Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine. Or sometimes just good ol’ Vaseline. So anything goes.






Cheers natural beauties!

Deana says
You look beautiful, but I would make a couple of suggestions. First of all, never use Vaseline on your face. Vaseline is a petroleum product and can be very toxic to your body. Second, I would not suggest body lotion for your face; but definitely moisturize!
Heidi says
I love how your makeup looks! I looked up the eye shadow you used as a highlighter and it looks like they discontinued it. Is there something else you would recommend? Thanks!
Elizabeth says
I have used this a couple times & it looks fantastic. Thanks so much 🙂

Did you really say you put lipgloss on your eyebrows? The clear kind? I’ve used clear mascara before, but this is a new one to me….

Which brow pencil do you use?
Thanks for the peek into your make-up routine. As someone who is hopeless in that department, I love seeing how other people get “put together.” You look beautiful!
Jessica Bland says
I love this and will definitely give it a try! I’m the total opposite! I don’t wear makeup, but want to just enough to brighten up my skin and eyes a little! And I love that you’re very flexible and affordable when it comes to the products! This sounds like a perfect regimen for me!

I once had a roommate make fun of me by saying “I’ve never known anyone to take so long just to look like you haven’t done anything” when I was putting on makeup 🙂 always love the natural but not natural look…but you’ve given me a few new tips to try. thanks.
Whitney says

Love this post Sydney. I need to get me some gel blush. Love your ‘natural’ look. 🙂
Tiffany says
Love this! Thanks for the tutorial!
Heidi says
Awesome! I’m going to try the primer. If you buy it from Amazon, it’s five dollars cheaper than the Sephora site, plus shipping is free w/ prime and if you don’t like it, you can return it in 60 days for a full refund.

GREAT post, Sydney! You’ve inspired me to start trying a little harder with my own makeup (and to buy some new eyeshadow, woohoo!) : )
olivia says
i need to master this for the workplace. and only pop on more intense makeup for special occasions.
Chelsea says
LOVE! =) I’ve been wanting to try a new foundation… I guess I’m going to have to try maybelline fit.
Luce says
You look gorgeous, though I think your little one is giving you that extra omph to your “natural” glow. 🙂

kelsey says
You look amazing. I love this look!
Victoria says
This is super similar to my daily steps (except for the eyebrows–I might have to try that today!) but somehow it never comes out looking this good..
MyPeaceOfFood says
You look so pretty! I hope I have your glow when I’m pregnant. 🙂
Jo(ke) says
You look beautiful. I use a very similar routine. I never leave the house without make up but at the same time I’m all about natural looking minimalistic make up.
