Begin with natural skin. Opt for sheer foundation or a tinted moisturizer to allow your skin to shine through. Use concealer only in the areas you need it and be sure to blend it well. Try Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream or Cargo Cosmetics Tinted Moisturizer. Or, simply blend your current foundation with your moisturizer to get a sheered out application.
To add a sun-kissed look, apply bronzer to your cheekbones, center and top of the forehead, bridge of the nose and chin; anywhere the sun hits. Stila makes a great bronzer in a portable powder compact. Just don't over use it or you will have a caked on matte look.
Keep your eyeshadows in the earth tone family of colors, browns, reds, yellows, etc. Blending is key to keeping it soft and muted and achieving the BOHO look. Urban Decay has a range of colors in their Naked 2 palette just blend, blend, blend.
Your eyebrows should be strong and natural. A bit untamed is best.
Lips can be done with a beige pink or just gloss over for subtle attention. You can find a wide range of suitable colors with MAC Cosmetics or any other brand. Tone down a too bright shade by applying a bit of gold shadow on your lips over the lipstick. Blend well with a clear gloss.
Bohemian style is about mixing and blending so keep that in mind when creating your Boho look.
