SUMMER MAKEUP

Summer is a time for fun in the sun, but it can also be a challenge for your makeup routine. The heat and humidity can cause makeup to melt, smudge, and slide right off. But fear not, with a few tweaks to your products and application, you can achieve gorgeous summer looks that last all day long.


Lightweight is the Way to Go:

Ditch the heavy foundations and opt for lightweight options like tinted moisturizers or BB creams. These provide sheer coverage while allowing your skin to breathe. For extra coverage, use a concealer only on areas that need it, like blemishes or dark circles.

Waterproof is Your BFF:

Summer is the season for poolside lounging and beach days. Make sure your mascara is waterproof to avoid raccoon eyes from sweat or a refreshing dip. Consider using a waterproof eyeliner too, especially if you love a defined eye look.

Creamy Cheeks for a Natural Flush:

Cream blushes are your friend in the summertime. They blend beautifully with your base and give a natural, dewy flush that looks healthy and sun-kissed. Powder blushes can look cakey in hot weather, so creams are the way to go for a fresh and long-lasting look.

Bronzer for a Summer Glow:

A touch of bronzer can add warmth and dimension to your face, mimicking a natural summer tan. Choose a matte bronzer and apply it lightly to areas where the sun would naturally hit your face, like your forehead, cheekbones, and jawline.

Setting the Stage for Long-Lasting Wear:

After applying your makeup, use a setting spray to lock everything in place. Look for a formula that's mattifying and controls shine, but avoid anything too drying that can make your skin look cakey.

Blotting Papers are Your Secret Weapon:

Keep blotting papers handy throughout the day to absorb excess oil and prevent shine. This will help your makeup stay put and keep you looking fresh, even in the hottest weather.

By following these simple tips, you can create beautiful summer makeup looks that will last all day long, no matter how high the temperatures soar. So, embrace the sunshine and rock a flawless summer look with confidence!
