3 Monochromatic Makeup Looks That You Can Create With Ease

If you are someone who is not a fan of popping colours and likes to keep things one-toned, this makeup trend is for you. From celebrities to your friends and peers, everyone has been crushing over this makeup trend that has started making rounds. We’re talking about the trend of creating monochromatic makeup looks. Monochrome makeup is when your face, eye and lip makeup are in the same colour palette. You can create a muted, brown-toned monochrome makeup or an orange one to take your game up a notch. To help you excel in this look, let’s learn about a few monochromatic makeup looks that you can easily recreate. 

Monochromatic Makeup Looks To Try

1. Pink monochrome makeup

If you’re aiming to create a look that is all cute, fun, and flirty then a pink monochrome makeup look is apt. Do your face makeup in the same usual way. After you’ve blended your foundation and concealer, you can add the first hint of pink to this look. Take a pink blush and load it on your cheeks. Make sure your cheeks have a healthy flush. You can use the Maybelline Facestudio Master Chrome Metallic Highlighter - Molten Rose Gold for the pink sheen. 

After this, use a rosy or pink-toned eyeshadow to add the element of pink to your monochromatic eye makeup. You can use the Maybelline Blushed Nude Eyeshadow palette to add pink colour to your lids. Colour your lips with the pink lipstick to add a final touch to your monochromatic makeup look. You can use bold pink lipstick or a muted one, depending on the one that suits your mood, and you’re all set. 

2. Nude monochrome makeup

A nude monochromatic makeup look is perfect for every season and occasion. It is ideal to wear during the day or at night and complements all your outfits. To achieve the desired look, we will first start by creating monochromatic eye makeup. Take a basic eyeshadow palette and add a light brown matte eyeshadow to your eyelids. To add a hint of sparkle, add a brown-toned shimmer and blend well. For this nude makeup look, we recommend using the Maybelline Nudes Eyeshadow palette. This palette has the perfect mix of muted mattes and shimmers for a nude monochromatic eye makeup look. Complete your eye makeup with some eyeliner and mascara. 

Keep your face makeup very light and minimal. Apply a thin layer of foundation and follow it up with the concealer. Set your monochromatic makeup look with powder, colour your cheeks with nude blush and that’s all. You can use the Maybelline Foundation Finder tool to find your ideal foundation, concealer, and powder shade from the comfort of your home. Once done, use some nude liquid lipstick to finish off your beautiful nude monochromatic makeup. 

3. Coral monochrome makeup

This monochromatic makeup look is not for minimal makeup lovers. If you’re in the mood to add drama to your ensemble, this is the look for you. To create this look, do your face makeup as usual. Instead of using a pink one, use a coral blush. Be generous with the blush to make sure you have a pop of coral on your cheeks. 

If you don’t have a coral-toned eyeshadow, you can simply repurpose your coral blush and sweep it across your lids to create an eye catchy monochromatic eye makeup. A great twist to the coral monochromatic eye makeup look would be to make your lids look glossy. After applying your powder blush, take some lip balm on your fingers and apply it lightly to your lids. To ensure an even application, the trick would be to tap the balm on your lids, instead of sweeping it. Finish your monochromatic makeup look by using creamy matte coral lipstick. 

Not sure which monochromatic makeup look will suit you the most? Don’t worry as the Maybelline Virtual-Try-On tool has got your back. This tool helps you experiment with a variety of face makeup, eye makeup and lip makeup products virtually, without having to spend a penny.
