OuiBlog: French Girl Fall Makeup Looks

Like everything else French women do, their makeup looks are effortlessly cool; simple yet chic. It’s a look that gives off a “I woke up like this” vibe which is a look everyone would love to perfect. First step, use less makeup and instead focus on emphasizing your natural features. To do this, you must start by having a healthy skin care routine to get that French girl glow. 

 

Skincare

Patrick de Fontbrune, a celebrity makeup artist in LA, says that “French women understand a glowing healthy skin is essential to their beauty regimen. With makeup, the goal is to achieve their best possible self, rather than transforming themselves into a make-believe version of themselves.” 

He recommends the following:

Caudalie Beauty Elixir: a hydrating mist to use under moisturizer 

Sisley Black Rose Skin Infusion Cream: to moisturize, lightweight and revitalizing

Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse: essential oil perfect for skin and hair 

Natural Blush

Blush is a French woman’s favorite throughout every season. While powdered blushes work too, French women prefer a cream blush because it is more natural looking. Here are some of our favorites:

 

The Kitten Eye

This fall we are moving away from a more bold cat eye and transitioning to a more minimal look: the kitten eye. If you are getting ready for a night out or just want to add a little spice to your minimal makeup routine, this is the look for you.

 

Long Lashes

French women often use a lash conditioner as lashes are a crucial part of their makeup routine. Add a little mascara and you’ve got yourself some lush lashes!

 

Bold with the Lips

A classic French girl look; bold lips. This pop of color will accentuate any simple makeup look. Take a look at our favorite lipsticks:
