The best and easiest way to get fake freckles is by using an eyeliner or eyebrow pencil. One benefit of using a brow pencil is that they are often more ashy tones rather than red based browns. You want your freckles to look as natural as possible so opt for two shades that you can layer for a plausible face of freckles. First, take a taupe pencil and dot around the center of your face. It’s important to remember that natural freckles aren’t even and the quickest way to draw attention to your fake freckles is by accidentally making them perfectly spaced and symmetrical. Next, take a darker ash brown and apply a second layer. At this point, the freckles will still look very obvious so you have to soften them up. Either pat the area with your fingertips until the spots are softened or take a clean eyeshadow blending brush and buff over the spots. Finish with a setting spray or powder for a lasting finish.
