14 Women Who Nailed Their DIY Makeup Looks

I have to confess something to you guys. I suck at applying makeup. There, I said it. Somehow, I didn't get that gene.

So, I'm always impressed when I see regular people excel in this area, especially when they're not actual professionals. I thought it would be fun to share some amazing DIY makeup looks from folks just like you and me.

1. This Half Face

How amazing is this? I have to say I love both of these looks. The natural look is so pretty, but then you add makeup, and it becomes "Wow!" Don't you think? I adore her eyelashes here.

2. This Beautiful Lady

Oh wow, you see what masterful makeup can do to a person? This lady definitely has her makeup chops right there. I wish she could teach me a thing or two. I absolutely love this look on her.

3. This Stunning Transformation

This lady proves that sometimes spending a little more on makeup is well worth it. Now she was able to create a stunning look here. I have to say I'm impressed by her makeup skills here.

4. This Super Natural Look

I don't know about you, but I prefer to look more natural. I actually like to look as if I'm not wearing makeup at all. So, I definitely gravitate to what this lady did here.

5. This Red Beauty

Even though you might love yourself without makeup like this lady, a subtle application is so welcome. She was able to get rid of all her redness and then added a touch of blush. I adore this look.

6. This Lovely Before And After

Again, this photo proves that a good foundation is a must when it comes to makeup. I'm always on the lookout for the best one for my skin. I love how subtle this final transformation looks here.

7. This BB Cream Makeover

Who here is a fan of BB creams? I have to admit I've never used one. I know I'm so late to the game, ha, ha! But I told you — I'm not that well-versed with makeup.

8. The Eyes Have It

A bold eye can do so much for your overall look. Do you agree with me? Case in point with this gorgeous lady here. All she needed was a little coverage and a beautiful eye and voilà.

9. This Pretty Before And After

As much as I like to go makeup-less, I can still appreciate when a little glam is needed. This lady did such a fabulous job with her DIY makeup here. I need her eyeshadow blending skills, hee-hee.

10. This Subtle Change

On the other hand, makeup doesn't always have to be dramatic. An everyday look can still be polished and pretty without looking too heavy. I know I can't handle that. It's all about easy breezy for me.

11. This Polished Look

Speaking of a polished look, here's what I'm talking about, people. This lady took a few extra steps to clean up her face, and now she's ready to take on the world. Doesn't she look so pretty here?

12. This Clean Look

This beautiful lady is working on her skin issues but with a few slight touch-ups, and she's good to go. I really like how she tackled this problem here. She's ready to get on with her day now.

13. This Dramatic Transformation

If you have troubled skin, you must know how hard it is to find a good foundation. This lady searched long and wide and finally found her match. I'm blown away by this before and after.

14. This Natural Glow

A soft, pink lip color and dewy cheeks brought out the natural glow of this woman's complexion. This is a perfect everyday makeup look!

Let me ask you: are you a novice when it comes to makeup, or do you rock in this area?

Either way, I'm sure you can appreciate all the work that went into creating all these looks. Which one is your favorite?
