Friendsgiving Game Face: 7 Beauty Picks For A Perfect Daytime Look

No one is wearing a full face to Friendsgiving, am I right? Keep that skin glowing through the season with balanced, but richer, natural oils (here are a few of our faves) and then simplify your beauty routine for a look that says, “I woke up like this…and then made all these amazing side dishes without breaking a sweat.”

Beauty-blogging babe Annie Atkinson is sharing her daytime look essentials with us below – and we kind of love that she’s kept the idea of a perfectly winged eye fully in the mix…

What do a rested appearance, luminous skin and rose-bitten plump lips have in common? They’re all part of your daytime beauty prescription this autumn. The fall shows, and even Rolling Stone’s latest and most-stunning-ever cover of a makeup-free Adele, proved yet again it’s time to invest in skincare and streamline your makeup routine. Don’t hide behind heavy concealers or foundations, but instead embrace and enhance the real you.

An edited makeup routine doesn’t have to be bland or boring or even makeup free – but it should be real. Create something fresh and modern by adding a pop of color to the lips, add volume to your lashes for a boost of confidence, and paint your nails red – all in ten minutes or less.

The best part of this clean new look is that it goes perfectly with that cozy cashmere sweater, autumnal colored leaves and a ’70s-inspired center part. Allow me to introduce your daytime beauty guide, simplified.
