Natural Makeup for Acne-Prone Skin

If you’re looking to cover acne and hyperpigmentation without your makeup appearing cakey, turn to this video by Colleen Ho. The Maybelline New York Fit Me Concealer is her secret weapon for dealing with hyperpigmentation — plus, she showcases a quick and easy way to create faux freckles!

No-Makeup Makeup

This back-to-school makeup tutorial is the epitome of natural beauty. Ashley Quiroz takes a minimalist, less-is-more approach to create an invisible makeup look, relying on basics like brow gel, tinted moisturizer and nude lip liner (she recommends the NYX Professional Makeup Slim Lip Pencil) for a flawless finish. For glowy, minimal beauty looks, we’re loving the Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care & Glow Foundation. It has a serum-like consistency, so it feels incredibly lightweight on the skin, and is infused with skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid and mandelic acid.

Dewy, Clean Makeup

For a simple yet fresh look, press play on Amy Serrano's clean and dewy makeup look using all drugstore products. The key to her glow? Prepping her skin with L’Oréal Paris Makeup True Match Lumi Glotion before layering on foundation.

Soft Glam Makeup

Sometimes you need to take your usual look up a notch. When you're in the mood for something a bit more glam, follow Fatima Bah's soft and rosy makeup tutorial using all drugstore products. NYX Professional Makeup Long-Lasting Matte Finish Setting Spray holds the look in place all day.
