You might unknowingly be doing trendy make-up – Does the clean girl trend appeal?

Where from clean girl -is it about trendy make-up? This minimalist make-up has a very natural result.

– As the name suggests, this is a natural and, so to speak, makeup-free makeup trend, which emphasizes one’s own features as discreetly as possible, says the makeup artist Terhi Tiainen.

Tiainen believes that the clean girl trend appeals specifically to Finnish make-up artists.

– It is really suitable for us Finns, who often prefer quick and fresh everyday makeup, she comments.

How is clean girl makeup done?

The main part has well-cared-for skin, a light makeup base and smooth skin.

– A beautiful foundation always starts with well-moisturized and protected skin. Before applying foundation, you should consider a moisturizer with sun protection, which provides moisture and protects the skin, Tiainen advises.

Clean girl make-up focuses on glowing skin, which can be easily achieved with light covering foundation or tinted BB or CC creams.

– If your face also needs more coverage, you can cover small skin discolorations with a concealer.

Tiainen advises that another option is to leave out the foundation completely and use only concealer in strategic areas, such as the inner and outer corners of the eyes, the forehead, the bridge of the nose and mouth, and the chin.

After the make-up base, the face can be moderately shaped with subtle shading.

– For example, cream-like products that spread evenly and discreetly, but settle on the skin as a powder, are suitable for this. They also stay beautifully in place all day.

Next, sun powder is sprinkled on the face, which will effortlessly bring the sun’s warmth to the face.

– Add sunscreen to the highest parts of the face, where the face naturally tans first, such as the cheeks, forehead, chin and nose, he reminds.

Tiainen advises that the glow of clean girl makeup can best be created by using cream-like products instead of powders.

– With the creamy blush, you finish off the fresh glow on the cheekbones, and by flicking it on the lips, you get an effortlessly uniform look.

Glowing, flawless and glossy base makeup is finished with a liquid highlighting product.

– Gently dab the highlighter on the cheekbones, along the bridge of the nose and on the cupid’s bow, and you’ll bring a dewy glow to the face, Tiainen instructs.

Clean girl make-up allows you to subtly emphasize the eyes and lips. Mascara is applied to the eyelashes and lip balm or gloss to the lips.

– For example, a sprinkling of sun powder in the furrow of the eyelid or a natural soft brown line at the base of the eyelashes work well. You can also leave them unapplied and just apply a layer or two of mascara to your eyelashes, brush the corners lightly with eyebrow wax and voilà, Tiainen sums up.
