Brilio.net - Makeup trends continue to evolve over time, but there are some styles that remain and never lose fans. One of them is soft classic makeup, which is still a mainstay on various occasions. This makeup style is identical to a soft, elegant, and timeless look, making it suitable for both formal and casual events.
Soft classic makeup usually relies on neutral colors, such as nude, peach, or soft pink, combined with not too flashy eye makeup and a touch of natural blush and lipstick. The end result gives a fresh, feminine, and graceful impression without looking excessive. It is no wonder that this style is often chosen for events such as proposals, graduations, and professional photo shoots.
Even though it uses neutral colors, this makeup style can still make someone look different. One of them is an elementary school teacher on the Instagram account @sherlykartika. Through one of the videos uploaded, the MUA named Sheryl is about to do makeup on an elementary school teacher who looks like she is entering middle age. However, because she is made up with a soft classic makeup style, her appearance becomes fresher and looks younger again.

Reported by briliobeauty.net from Instagram @sherlykartika on Thursday (5/6), before the makeup, her bare face skin was clearly visible. But after that, a very significant transformation was seen. The soft classic style is clearly visible in the harmonious balance of facial features, avoiding elements that are too dramatic or avant-garde. Her eyebrows are carefully shaped and filled, framing her eyes with a soft arch that enhances the natural beauty of her eyes without being too thick.

One of the most striking changes is the incredible transformation of her nose. Before the makeup, her nose looked rounder like a guava or what is also known as a "guava nose". However, after the makeup, her nose now looks more sculpted, elongated, and slim.
This significant change is achieved through skillful contouring and highlighting techniques, where darker shades are applied along the sides of the nose to create the illusion of shadows, making it appear slimmer, while lighter, shimmering highlights are applied along the bridge of the nose, drawing attention and creating the perception of length.

Her eyes are also subtly enhanced with a soft, diffused application of eyeshadow in neutral or earth tones, complementing her skin tone. The subtle, slightly winged eyeliner defines her lash line. This eye makeup contributes to a more open and fresh look without being overdone, while still maintaining a soft classic aesthetic.
Finally, her lips are beautifully defined and given a soft pink or berry shade. The lip color is not too bright, ensuring harmony with the overall soft classic theme. This combination of careful makeup application results in a stunning transformation, where her facial features, especially her nose, are enhanced to create a more harmonious, refined and aesthetic facial structure.
