I spent years using foundation & mega lashes – now I've had a glow-down & people say I was ‘hiding a masterpiece'
Plus, four easy ways to give yourself a glow-down to celebrate your natural beauty YOU GLOW GIRL I spent years using foundation & mega lashes – now I've had a glow-down & people say I was 'hiding a masterpiece' A YOUNG woman has left people with their jaws on the floor after sharing her epic glow-down. At some point in our life, most of us will change our style - whether it's wearing less make-up, giving up fake tan for good, or doing the very opposite. 2 The young beauty before embarking on the epic glow-down journey Credit: tiktok/@eviesm1thx 2 The curly-haired stunner left people with their jaws on the floor after revealing her natural beauty Credit: tiktok/@eviesm1thx But while there are plenty of glow-ups and downs shared on TikTok, it will be pretty challenging to find one more epic than Evie Smith's incredible transformation. A glow-down, similar to the ''clean girl aesthetic'' trend, is rooted in the idea of ''less is more''. It promotes enhancing natural beauty - rather than covering it up. With a glow-down, out are the hair extensions, fake nails and mega lashes - and in is learning how to take care of your skin to make it radiant. Before embarking on her transformation journey, the young woman was sporting mega eyelashes, Rapunzel-like hair extensions, heavy foundation and countour for a more defined appearance. The brunette beauty, who posts under the username @eviesm1thx, would also straighten her naturally curly hair and complete the look with extra blush on the cheeks and a nude lippy. However, at some point the young woman realised she had had enough of the aesthetic and decided to give herself a brand new look. Sharing the jaw-dropping makeover online, Evie explained that she's ''just trying to be more confident in my real skin''. The clip, which has since racked up close to 130k views in just one day, also saw Evie show fellow TikTokers what she had been hiding all these years - and the glow underneath has left people gobsmacked. Now, the young woman, who is in a happy relationship, looks absolutely phenomenal, rocking natural fair skin and doesn't cover her complexion with cakey foundation. I shed 6.5st taking weight loss jabs - but the best bit is my glowing skin makes me look 10 years younger Since embracing her natural self, Evie has also since said ''goodbye'' to mega lashes and no longer draws her eyebrows on. Amazed by the makeover, over 80 social media users raced to comments where they all agreed on one thing - she had made the right choice by embracing her natural beauty. One viewer said: ''Girl never do that again u look perfect with ur curls ( ofc u can I am just emphasizing how good u look naturally).'' Four ways to give yourself a glowdown Thick fluffly lashes are out, so is the fake tan and long how to have the ultimate glow-down in four steps... The term "glow-down" refers to a woman removing what once was the most popular beauty choices, for a more natural look. Eyelash extensions - Thick, bold "Russian lashes" used to be all the rage, but nowadays, girls are opt for subtle, individual eyelash extensions to lengthen what they already have. Nails - Gone are the long, plastic talons, more women are favouring BIAB or gel manis. Hair colour - Remember when everyone wanted icy white hair? Not anymore! Millions of women are trying to go back to their roots (literally), and have soft blondes, and warm gold tones added to their hair, in a bid to achieve the "old money blonde" look. Makeup - Sculpting your face shape through the art of contouring is no more. Ladies are adding freckles and sweeping blush across cheekbones instead. Someone else chimed in: ''hello you've been hiding this masterpiece ??'' ''omg the face card,'' a third was lost for words. ''girl noo you're so naturally pretty amazingly gorgeous, you also give off super sweet energy u look like such a smiley fun positive girly,'' another wrote. ''I went through the same phase. it was so hard to let go. you look so beautiful,'' a fellow beauty buff commented.
