There's a time and a place for a bold lip or a smoky eye (or both, if you're brave), but a more minimalist no-makeup makeup look is our daily go-to for emphasizing our natural features in a way that's flattering and subtle, so it's just as perfect for the office as it is for date night. These 10 takes on the no-makeup look are our favorite inspiration for flawless faces that look like we may have just woken up this way.
Kate Bosworth
Using a translucent finishing powder only on the chin and bridge of the nose minimizes unwanted shine while keeping the rest of the skin fresh and dewy.

Natalie Portman
A touch of pale, shimmery shadow at the inner corners of the eyes brightens up the whole face.

Gisele Bündchen
Contouring cheekbones with a plum-toned blush looks more natural than bronzer.

Amanda Seyfried
A clean, groomed brow pulls a minimalist makeup look together fast.

Diane Kruger
Lining the upper waterline with a black pencil liner defines eyes and makes them pop.

Jessica Chastain
Choose a moisturizing lipstick just a few shades darker than your natural lip color.

January Jones
A rosy flush instantly upgrades any no-makeup look. Find your ideal blush color by matching it to your pinched cheeks.

For a natural, semi-matte look that isn't dry, spritz a toning mist onto your skin after applying powder.

Chloë Moretz
Use a blending sponge to apply foundation or tinted moisturizer for a seamless, naturally flawless finish.

Dab your lipstick onto the apples of your cheeks for a cohesive matching effect that pulls your whole look together.
