Barefaced but Beachy—My Japanese Coastal Girl Look

Think: soft freckles, blurred color, and skin that breathes. That’s my take on the Japanese seaside aesthetic—low-saturation tones, subtle sculpt, and texture-forward base. Base Moisturizer > glow primer > sheer, dewy foundation (think skin tint or cushion). I skip concealer, let freckles peek through, and only powder the T-zone. Contour & Highlight Cream contour (cool cinnamon tone) under cheekbones + jaw for soft depth. Matte highlighter on nose bridge, brow bone, center of the face—no shimmer, just lift. Brows & Eyes Keep brow shape natural, brush up for airy texture. Lids: matte ivory all over, champagne shimmer on center. Under-eyes: dust soft cinnamon from inner corner to tail. Tightline only. Lashes: curled, brushed with clear or lengthening mascara—messy is the mood. Inner corner: a tiny pop of pale yellow shimmer = instant freshness. Blush & Lips Blush: build layers—cinnamon + a sheer lemon yellow = sun-kissed from within. Lips: burnt orange + caramel gloss, blurred edges, no liner. Full but effortless. Freckles Freckle spray + a few hand-drawn spots for that sun-licked grit. #beauty #makeup #beachaesthetic
