How To Create Natural Looking Freckles Using Makeup

Freckles are the newest beauty trend and we are not complaining! A speckled face has an undoubtedly carefree and edgy vibe about it. Even if you don't have natural freckles or beauty marks, the good news is that you can perfectly fake them. Plus, unlike some of the more precise trends like cat-eyes, contouring and many more, false freckles actually look better with less work and precision.

How To Achieve Natural-Looking Freckles?

Choose Your Tool

"Freckle makeup" is becoming increasingly popular in recent years and it’s really not rocket science to create faux freckles. If you don't have a freckle pen, a waterproof eyeliner or brow pencil works well as a freckle tool; brow powder can also be used to achieve a soft speckled look.

Create A Clean Canvass

Make sure your facial makeup is completed before you start scattering your freckles. Whether you apply foundation or not, concentrating on hydrating and prepping your skin will prepare you for a freckled face.

Don't try to control the placement of your fake freckles if you want them to look more natural. Apply the dots on the parts of your face that are normally exposed to the sun, focusing on your cheekbones, nose, and forehead. From there, diffuse the dots outward, being careful not to apply them too symmetrically.

Create A Constellation And Blend Slightly

Keep in mind that no two freckles should look the same realistically so don’t worry about trying to achieve perfection with your freckles. Smudging out those penciled-on dots will create the most impressive effect. Tap, tap, tap your fingers on them to blend them into your skin, then reapply the brow pencil anywhere you want the sunkissed hue to be even stronger. You may also use brushes to blend and set the freckles in their place.

The best part about creating the freckles look is that you can have fun with your makeup and you have all the creative freedom. Moreover, you can simply not worry about getting it wrong here.
