7 Make Up Steps to Parisian Girl Look
The less is more philosophy adopted by French women in their perception of beauty adds a style that is both extremely secure and attractive. From the elegance of the iconic French beauty pioneer Brigitte Bardot to Netflix's popular series Emily in Paris, French style never goes out of style.
We admit it, sometimes it takes courage to use red lipstick, which is the undisputed signature of French makeup. Many of us may be worried about being exaggerated or hesitate about which make-up would suit red lipstick. However, French women, who confidently carry their feminine identities with the impressive stance of red lipstick, can easily overcome this dilemma with simple yet chic make-up. Here are step-by-step Parisian makeup hacks inspired by French women:
Although it may seem unnecessary if you skip the step of moisturizing your skin before makeup, the makeup applied to dry skin will not give a good result and even cause your skin to look wrinkled and dirty. So, the first condition of impressive make-up is healthy and enlightened skin.
Remember, French women, seek effortless beauty in their make-up just as they do in their clothing. Instead of tiring your skin, support your make-up with serum foundation, one of the rising trends of the last period. Serum foundation presents skin care and skin makeup together, filling the skin and helping you to achieve an appearance that is equalized with natural pigments. Thus, while your skin will look smooth and vibrant, it will easily adapt to your skin colour and give a feeling as if it does not exist.
French women prefer minimal eyeliner make-up that accentuates their gaze in daily make-up. In order not to overdo it in eyeliner makeup, you should keep the tail of your eyeliner small and you should draw the eyeliner only to the middle of the eyelid. At this step, the aim is to highlight the bottom of the eyelashes and reinforce the feminine appeal of red lipstick.
Long and prominent eyelashes will add extra depth to your eyes when supported with eyeliner makeup. Applying mascara in a single layer, curling your lashes from root to tip, will prevent a lumpy appearance and make it easier for you to achieve the natural look you desire. The trick to applying your mascara is to make small zigzag movements to prevent your lashes from sticking together.

One of our must-haves in French make-up is the cheeks that appear to be pink by themselves. The point we will pay attention to for this is to apply the blush on the cheeks that come out when we smile. Don't forget to choose shades that are natural and compatible with your skin tone!
With the help of an eyebrow pencil, you can fill in the gaps between your eyebrows with small touches. The important thing is that the eyebrows you comb through with an eyebrow brush have a natural finish. We don't want your eyebrows to be filled in heavily. All you have to do is make small touches to the points you deem necessary.
We cannot separate the red lipstick, which they easily adapt from day to night, from French women’s chic look. Before applying red lipstick, which is the key to the glamorous beauty of French women with the feeling of self-confidence it creates, we make sure that the lips are free of dead skin for a smooth look. We recommend using lip peeling for your lips that are dry and chapped, especially in cold seasons. Afterwards, just as we moisturize our attention, we should also moisturize our lips well and create a base. Just before applying the red lipstick, you can choose a lip liner in the same shade as the lipstick colour you chose. While the lip liner reduces the possibility of making mistakes while applying the lipstick, it makes the lip outline clear and increases the permanence of the lipstick. Finally, you can apply the red lipstick that suits your skin tone the most. If you are unsure of the red tone that will suit you best, don't worry! The Red For Me colour of Maybelline Made For All lipsticks has been developed to suit all skin tones.
