“The best foundation you can wear is glowing, healthy skin.” – Experts at Glow & GO

Why the No Makeup Look is Trending

The no makeup look is all about letting your natural beauty shine. With skinimalism trending, people are embracing cost effective skin treatments, minimal skincare products, and ofcourse, a healthy, active lifestyle for a fresh, effortless glow. Perfect for our climate, this approach is lighter on the skin, helping prevent breakouts and irritation.

Sweet, right?

Gone are the days when ladies had to wear a thick layer of makeup base to get a porcelain complexion no matter what the occasion was.

And that too, in Pakistan, where it is simply not practical to wear a full glam face, every single day!

I, Dr Hamdah Aftab, a board certified dermatologist, am a skin care lover, who wants you all to become skin smart and skin confident.

Super Simple Steps to Achieve a No Makeup Look

Yes! You read it correctly.

Spoiler Alert: No cosmetics or products needed. Only powerful skin treatments offered exclusively at Glow & GO Skin Clinic Lahore.

1. Start Fresh

Kick things off by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser that matches your skin type. This clears away dirt, excess oil, and any leftover makeup, setting the stage for flawless skincare or light makeup.

2. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!

Slather on a light, non-greasy moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated and smooth. It doubles as a primer and, if you choose one with a hint of shimmer, it’ll give your skin that instant, radiant glow.

3. Keep It Light With Tinted Moisturiser or BB Cream

If you still desire a touch of coverage, but still want to keep that no makeup look, ditch the heavy foundation and go for a tinted moisturiser or BB cream. These lightweight options even out your skin tone while keeping things natural and breathable.

My Go To Anti-Ageing Tips for Your Naked Skin

1. Power Up with Antioxidants

Vitamin C is your skin’s best friend when it comes to fighting ageing. It shields your skin from environmental damage and revs up collagen production. A daily dose of Vitamin C serum can brighten your complexion and keep those fine lines at distance.

2. Retinol: Your Anti-Ageing Hero

Retinol is a must-have for its wrinkle-fighting superpowers. By speeding up cell turnover, it helps smooth out your skin’s texture and tone. Add a retinol cream to your night-time routine for a youthful glow.

3. Get Serious with Multi-Peptides

To tackle fine lines head-on, multi-peptides are a game-changer. They are my go-to for boosting your skin’s natural collagen, helping it stay firm, plump, and youthful.

Take a look at some of my favourite low maintenance skin treatments that I highly recommend to men and women who want to go completely ‘Natural’.

Here is what you need to look and feel your best, but in your skin.

1. BB Glow Treatment: Your Skin But Better!

This semi-permanent makeup treatment combines the perks of a facial and foundation, giving you a bright, even skin tone (no makeup look) effortlessly. 

The secret? 

Microneedling a pigmented serum into your skin for a natural, glowing look.

BB Glow for Brides: Your Trusted Partner

Pakistani weddings are all about dazzle and drama, and every bride wants to look her absolute best. While a full face of makeup might seem over-the-top for some, BB Glow Microneedling treatment can give you that stunning, natural radiance perfect for your big day. 

Yes. It is ideal for all those pre-wedding events, like Mehendi and Shendi, where you want to glow without looking overly made-up.

Why BB Glow is a Wedding Must-Have

Long-Lasting Glow: BB Glow can keep you glowing for months, making it perfect for all your wedding events.

Natural Finish: Forget cakey foundations! BB Glow delivers a fresh, natural look.

No More Touch-Ups: Enjoy your celebrations without worrying about makeup mishaps.

2. Brighten Up, From Inside, The Healthy Way

What Are Skin Whitening Injections?

Skin whitening injections, aka glutathione injections, might be your answer. Packed with glutathione, a super antioxidant, these shots work wonders for lightening your skin and reducing those stubborn dark spots.

How Do They Work?  
These injections pump up your antioxidant levels, which helps to cut down on melanin—the pigment that causes dark spots and uneven skin tone. With regular treatments, you will notice a brighter, more even complexion.

P.S. Many of your favourite prime time celebs love this treatment for their no makeup look.

Benefits of Skin Whitening Injections

• Glow Up: Achieve a lighter, more radiant skin tone.
• Spotless Shine: Fade away dark spots and uneven patches.
• Detox Boost: Helps your body detox and supports overall skin health.

Who Should Try Them?
If you are desiring a lighter skin tone or have been battling dark spots with no success, these injections might be just what you need. 

Perfect for those wanting a more noticeable change, in a healthier way!

3. Lip Tint Treatment: Pop Your Pout with a Hint of Color

What’s Lip Tint Treatment All About?

Think of lip tint as your new beauty solution! It is a semi-permanent procedure that gives your lips a natural-looking color that sticks around longer than your usual lipstick. Forget the daily touch-ups—this tint keeps your lips looking fresh and fabulous for weeks.

How Is It Done?

A skin friendly pigment is gently applied to your lips and soaks into the top layer of skin. This means your lips get a lovely, rosy glow without the hassle of reapplying every few hours.

Why You Will Love It

• Long-Lasting Color: Rock vibrant lips for weeks with zero touch-ups.
• Natural Glow: Enjoy a subtle, natural look that enhances your beauty.
• Hydrating: Many treatments include hydrating ingredients to keep your lips smooth and soft.

Who Is It For?

If you’re all about that effortless beauty and want a pop of color without the daily lipstick grind, lip tint is your go-to. Perfect for busy bees who love low-maintenance beauty!

4. Sun Protection is Non-Negotiable

Last but definitely not the least! Sun exposure or UV rays can cause a great deal of skin issues. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30, even on cloudy days. Reapply every two hours if you are outdoors.

Glow-Boosting Diet Hacks

What you munch on can seriously impact your skin! Eating a diet loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals can work magic for your no makeup look.

Skin-Soothing Superfoods

• Avocado Magic: This creamy fruit is full of healthy fats that keep your skin soft and hydrated.
• Tomato Power: Brimming with lycopene, they help shield your skin from harmful UV rays.
• Nutty Glow: Packed with vitamin E, nuts aid in skin repair and moisture retention.

Sugar Shockwave 

Too much sugar can break down collagen and elastin, leading to wrinkles and sagging. Go for natural sweeteners like honey or stevia to keep your skin looking fresh and youthful.

Glow On, With Zero Makeup On!

Achieving a fresh, no makeup look is a breeze with the right skincare, smart skin treatments, healthy habits, and some clever beauty tricks. Whether you are gearing up for a mehendi or just want to boost your confidence, these tips will have you shining from within.

Choose BB Glow facials, skin whitening injections, and lip tint treatments to boost your natural beauty and keep your routine simple. 

Enjoy a dewy, radiant look every day without a hint of makeup!
