It’s no secret that makeup is becoming increasingly accepted and used by men rather than just women. With cosmetics companies starting to use male beauty ambassadors, it’s great to see people embracing the power of makeup. If you’re interested in what cosmetics have to offer but you’re a beginner with no idea where to start, we’ve got you covered with the best makeup for men.

Trying makeup for the first time can be a scary experience, but once you get past that initial first step, you’ll quickly learn how great it can be. Wearing makeup doesn’t mean that you need to apply a full face complete with eyeshadow and red lipstick. In fact, if you’re going for a natural look, when it’s applied correctly, people won’t even be able to tell that you’re wearing any!

What is the Best Makeup for Men?

Concealer

The most popular makeup item which is used amongst men is a concealer. Not only does it look incredibly natural, it can also be used for a multitude of things. The Recipe for Men Concealer is a good choice as it can be used to cover spots, dark circles, bags and puffiness. Containing vitamin E, it also promotes cell growth for a quicker healing process. Just make sure to choose the shade closest to your skin tone to avoid tell-tale patches.

Bronzer

If you’re looking for a slightly heavier coverage, the Clinique for Men Face Bronzer will help you to achieve it. This oil-free, lightweight gel absorbs quickly to leave you with a healthy-looking, natural glow. Designed to give you an even, tanned finish, this is a great way to give your complexion a boost, especially if you don’t get to spend much time out in the sun.

Foundation

Makeup for men can also cover uneven skin tone without appearing too thick and obvious. The Vichy Dermablend Fluid Corrective Foundation blends effortlessly and is formulated with soft focus pigments to blur away imperfections. For better coverage, pair it with the concealer and any dark spots will become invisible.

Eyebrow Pencil

The beauty of makeup is that you can switch out products and use them for different things. One of the most versatile products is an eyebrow pencil. You can use a brow pencil such as the Bourjois Eyebrow Pencil to fill in any gaps with short, hair-like strokes. Using the same technique, you can fill in any sparse areas of facial hair.

Makeup Remover

When it comes to the end of the day, it’s important to remember to remove any makeup you’ve applied during the day. Using a makeup remover such as the Inika Certified Organic Makeup Remover will make sure there are no traces left to allow your skin to breathe and remain healthy throughout the night.
