Natural, Flawless, Effortless: Mastering the 'No Makeup' Makeup Look

As the weather heats up, the "no makeup" makeup look is becoming a go-to for many beauty enthusiasts. This natural, effortless look has taken over runways and social media feeds alike, and it's not hard to see why. Achieving this look can be easy with the right products and techniques. In this post, we'll show you how to get the "no makeup" makeup look using Colorlab's custom blend system, as well as introduce you to our own version of a product that's been called the secret to achieving this coveted look. Whether you're a beauty professional or just looking to perfect your summer makeup routine, read on for tips on how to achieve the "no makeup" makeup look this season.




What is the "no makeup" makeup look?

The "no makeup" makeup look is all about enhancing your natural features while creating a flawless and effortless appearance. It's a fresh-faced, low-maintenance look that can be achieved with minimal product and effort. This look is characterized by radiant, glowing skin, natural-looking eyebrows, and a subtle wash of color on the lips and cheeks. The goal is to make it look like you're not wearing any makeup, even though you are.


One of the biggest draws of this trend is how versatile it is. It can be worn to any occasion, from a casual brunch with friends to a formal event. Plus, it's perfect for summer, when the heat and humidity can make wearing heavy makeup uncomfortable.


Some of the key features of the "no makeup" makeup look include:

  • Even, radiant skin: Achieving a flawless base is key to this look. That means using products that smooth out imperfections, even out skin tone, and add a healthy glow.

  • Natural-looking eyebrows: Your eyebrows frame your face and can make a big difference in how polished and put-together you look. For the "no makeup" makeup look, you'll want to fill in any sparse areas with a brow pencil or powder and brush them up for a more natural look.

  • Soft, subtle lips and cheeks: The focus of this look is on enhancing your natural features, not covering them up. A subtle wash of color on the lips and cheeks can help bring your whole look together.

Create the Perfect "No Makeup" Makeup Base

Achieving the perfect "no makeup" makeup look requires a base that's both flawless and natural-looking. While the Jones Road Miracle Balm has been praised as the secret to achieving this look, Colorlab Cosmetics also offers a customizable alternative that beauty professionals can use to achieve the same effect.


With Colorlab's patented custom blend system, users can create their own custom blend formula that's tailored to their skin tone and type. This system allows users to easily create a dupe of the Jones Road Miracle Balm, as well as customize the formula to suit their specific needs.


One of the dupe shades available in Colorlab's Ready-to-Wear collection is Nightlight. This shade is perfect for achieving the "no makeup" makeup look, as it provides a soft-focus finish that enhances the natural beauty of your skin.




Alternatively, users can create their own custom blend formula using the following ingredients:

  • Crème Base

  • 1 tiny Bronze Frost

  • 1 tiny Champagne Frost

  • 1 drop Wineberry

  • 2 ml Moisture Additive

  • 4 pumps Ultra Lipid Moisture Complex aka Beauty Oil

  • Simply mix and melt the base and frost, then add the oils from the disposal cup. Pour the mixture into a 5-gram powder jar, and you'll have your very own "no makeup" makeup base that's customized to your skin tone and type.

Tips for Perfecting the "No Makeup" Makeup Look

Once you have your perfect "no makeup" makeup base, there are a few tips and tricks you can use to complete the look and achieve a flawless, natural finish:


  • Use a light hand: The key to the "no makeup" makeup look is to keep things subtle and natural. Use a light hand when applying products like blush, highlighter, and lip color to create a soft, barely-there effect.

  • Focus on your skin: Achieving a glowing, radiant complexion is key to the "no makeup" makeup look. Use products like a hydrating primer, lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer, and a subtle highlighter to create a dewy, natural finish.

  • Don't forget about your brows: As mentioned earlier, natural-looking brows are a key component of the "no makeup" makeup look. Use a brow pencil or powder to fill in any sparse areas and brush them up for a more natural effect.

  • Keep it simple: The "no makeup" makeup look is all about simplicity and minimalism. Stick to a few key products that enhance your natural beauty, rather than covering it up with heavy layers of makeup.

  • Play up your natural features: The goal of the "no makeup" makeup look is to enhance your natural beauty, so focus on playing up your best features. Use a subtle highlighter to bring out your cheekbones, or a tinted lip balm to accentuate your lips.

  • Finish with a setting spray: To keep your "no makeup" makeup look in place all day, finish with a setting spray. This will help your makeup last longer and keep it looking fresh and natural.


By following these tips and using Colorlab's custom blend system or our ready-to-wear creme illuminator in Nightlight, you'll be able to achieve a perfect "no makeup" makeup look that's effortless and natural.
