This Is All The Morena Makeup Inspo You Need
Check out these stunning Filipinas rocking the beauty of their morena skin!
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, by now you should already know that the Philippine beauty scene has come a long way in terms of flaunting the natural morena look. If in the past we've been obsessed with making our skin whiter than it actually is, today, the local beauty scene has been making ways towards breaking beauty standards and has been parading our natural, God-given beauty. Nowadays, a lot of celebrities and well-known personalities are also embracing their natural beauty, and it has been a great representation for Filipinos to be comfortable in our own skin as well.
Makeup is all about having a bit of extra fun in your life. With the right blending techniques and color, makeup can enhance our looks, bring out our best features, and make us feel more confident in our own skin. Gone are the days that our choice of makeup is two shades lighter than our natural complexion as we’re now all about showing off our golden glow. In the gallery below, let’s take a look at these morena makeup trends to get you inspired about your next look!

Feeling a little bold? Just like Kiana Valenciano, a little dramatic look is something every morena should try at least once in her life! Going for a bolder look can enhance your facial features and make you look more defined. Start by swiping a dark lip shade, in lieu of your favorite pink or nude shade.
