Dream - Graduation is definitely a special moment that should be celebrated. After completing your education, you have accomplished something great. This makes many female graduates prepare a special appearance for this special day.

As you can see, the makeup has a fresh and youthful vibe. It's perfect for female graduates who have just finished their studies. The lashes are adorned with natural-looking fake eyelashes and thin eyeliner. The eyes are adorned with peach eyeshadow that matches the blush on.

The lips are created with ombre technique and finished with a glossy effect. This makes the graduate's face look fresh. Are you interested in trying this makeup tone, Dear Dream?

Fresh Graduation Look with Bushy Brows and Ombre Lips

Dream - Graduation is one of the important moments for women, besides weddings. That's why women want to look their best on that day.

They spare no effort, having their graduation kebaya and batik skirt tailored to fit their body shape. They also choose a classic hijab style to create a more elegant appearance.

Makeup is done by a makeup artist (MUA) to ensure a perfect overall look. Graduation makeup is different from wedding makeup.

The face makeup is kept more natural and fresh, unlike the bold makeup for wedding ceremonies or receptions, especially in the eye and lip areas. One example of graduation makeup can be seen from the post by MUA Atika Anggani some time ago.

Her client's face looks fresh with flawless makeup. The eyebrows are styled with bushy brows. The false eyelashes used are not too curled, so they still look natural despite having volume.

A natural eyeshadow color is used, a shimmery pink with a touch of brown in the outer corner. The MUA also elongates the client's eyes with winged eyeliner.

The application of contour, highlighter, and pink blush on the client's face looks very classic and soft, so the makeup doesn't look excessive. The ombre lips in pink with a glossy finish make the client's face look fresher and flawless.

Dear Dream, if you're about to graduate, you can try imitating this makeup style and apply it yourself or use a makeup artist's service.

4 Classic Makeup Tricks for Graduation

Dream - Doing makeup for special occasions doesn't always have to take a long time. A flawless makeup look can be achieved using simple techniques and products.

Dear Dream, you only need to pay attention to the necessary makeup steps and skip unnecessary ones to save time. Some makeup techniques don't have a significant impact on your appearance if you don't do them, so you can instantly achieve a flawless look.

Here are some makeup steps that you can skip to save time when getting ready for a graduation moment.

1. Use Primer Sparingly

Makeup Artist (MUA) with the Instagram account @pungkyolivia_makeup suggests using primer only on the nose area to minimize the appearance of pores and help makeup products adhere better. Applying moisturizer before makeup can also be skipped, especially if you have already used a serum or essence that moisturizes the skin.

2. No Need for Cream Contour

Usually, MUAs use cream contour and blush before applying powder versions of these products to make the makeup last longer. If you want to save time, you can simply use cream and powder blush, as well as powder contour.

This is because fading contour doesn't have as much impact on your appearance compared to blush, especially if the contour shade is dark enough.

3. Classic Eyebrow Makeup

Doing eyebrow makeup can take a long time, especially when creating a 'feathered' look. For a classic eyebrow makeup, you can use brow pomade, brow mascara, or brow pencil only, so it won't take too much time.

4. Using Two Eyeshadow Colors

A perfect makeup look doesn't always require using multiple eyeshadow colors to create a cut crease or intense gradient. You can simply use two eyeshadow colors to create an attractive facial appearance.

Choose one bright and neutral matte color as the base eyeshadow, and one shimmer or glitter color to make the eyes look more elegant.
