Maybe just take a light powder and run it over your face, or a tinted moisturiser, then use a nude lipstick with a nude gloss on your lips, then maybe a slight winged eyeliner with just a hint of mascara so it's sort of a quaint look, then just take a light matte eyeshadow and sweep it over your inner corner of your eyes, around your tear duct, then if you wanted you could use a white eyeliner to widen eyes or something, there's not a lot of products used in this look, it just depends on how you use the products and manipulate them to create the look.

I think its foundation or bb cream, orangey blush on the cheeks, highlight forehead, nose&chin, outline your lips with a liner a little bit darker then your lip colour then use a nude lipgloss/lipstick, fill in your eyebrows naturally, use a dark brown in the crease and a white/highlighter in the corner of the eye, then tightline your eyes and mascara(:

You can fill in your brows with a brow pencil matching your hair color, then use a nude eyeshadow on your lid an a highlighting shade in the inner corner and under the brow. Then take a brown shadow and smudge it on the bottom lashline a little. Add falsies and cover the glue with a little eyeliner. Take the brown eyeshadow on the outer v a little and blend a lot. For face use whatever foundation or bb cream you like then highlight the center of your forehead, cheek, bridge of nose, cupids bow and center chin! Add some peachy blush and matte bronzer. For the lips use a nude lipliner and add a pinky gloss over it. (: honestly to me this makeup is very full faced and a lot for school so I personally would not wear this much but to each their own (: Hope I helped.

These images are deceptive... That is a lot of products, lighting, and editing.

A medium/full coverage foundation (possibly airbrush) mixed with a non-glittery illuminator. A sculpting powder (something like Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder) was used under the cheek bones, on the nose, and around the jaw line. A coral blush on the apples of the cheeks and swept backward toward the ears. At least two lip liners (a slightly darker one to create shadows and a lighter one to create highlights) followed by a sheer pink lipstick. Corrector followed by concealer. At least three eye shadows, brown or black liner, nude liner, mascara, and false eyelashes. Brow powder and gel.

The lighting is diffused from the upper right, and the contrast has been bumped up. The skin has been edited to smooth and eliminate pores, fine lines, and rough spots, blemishes, etc.

In order to achieve a look inspired by this, you have to start with excellent skin prep: clean skin, moisturized, and primed. Then apply your brow makeup, clean it up with a wipe if there's any fallout. Then the eye makeup. Then corrector (based on what color your dark circles are and if you have any redness) then concealer. Airbrush foundation was likely used, mixed with a liquid highlighter (BECCA is a popular one). A liquid foundation may give you a similar effect. Then apply a little cream or powder blush and blend. Gently contour according to your face shape with a cool neutral (read: grey brown) contouring product (NOT BRONZER). Lips are last: line the center with a blush pink color, then the cupids bow and the fatter part of the bottom lip with a lighter nude. Top it with a sheer moisturizing nudey pink lipstick. Set everything with a dewy setting spray, no powder.

I think oilier skin types may have some trouble keeping this look without some hardcore priming products, and even then it may slide around later in the day.
