Well perhaps not YOU, but have a read of this...


According to a recent survey, one in five boys wish their girlfriend would wear less make-up. Us, over-doing it? Well, maybe...

A lot of us girls like to pile on the slap, hoping to cover all those pesky blemishes or accentuate those big eyes we have. What we didn't realise is that while we're thinking we look super hot, boys are thinking we should tone it down so they can see our REAL (and probably much more lovely) faces!

So it's time for a cosmetic overhaul Sugarscapers! Pack away that garish blue eyeshadow and siren red lippie, we're about to show you how to be a (slightly more) natural beauty!

Firstly, you want to get in some natural light. While having your curtains shut and your bedroom light on might be a whole lot more flattering, you need to be able to see exactly what you're doing. So pick up your mirror and get near a window!

Skip heavy foundations. Instead opt for tinted moisturiser that gives you just the right amount of coverage. This one by Boots Botanics also contains light-reflecting particles to make you look more awake, and it's only £3.91.

Maybelline New York Pure Mineral Concealer is the best concealer we've ever tried, and believe us, we've tried A LOT! The wand makes it super easy to apply. Simply dot it under eyes and over any blemishes, then blend. Voila! Flawless for just £5.99 from Boots and Superdrug.
