Summer can be sweltering, leading women to skip their standard beauty routines in lieu of suffering with streaky makeup and shiny T-zones. Thanks to Kristina-Monique, here is a quick, quality makeup tutorial that will help you ace sultry summer style while saving time and face!
Step 1: Choose a tinted moisturizer with an SPF. This will offer you protection from the sun while providing you with a nice healthy finish.
Step 2: Opt for your standard undereye concealer to correct any discoloration and even out your skin tone.
Step 3: Lightly powder the middle of your face to set your moisturizer and concealer. Apply bronzer on any areas of the face where the sun would naturally cover: forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. To top off your sunkissed look, apply your favorite shade of blush.
Step 4: Groom your eyebrows as your desire. Expert tip: “I personally prefer naturally full, clean brows with a bit of powder on them during the summer.”
Step 5: A full set of lashes looks great during the summer season and adds drama to an otherwise minimal makeup routine.
Step 6: Polish off your look while adding a burst of sexy summer color with a beautiful bright lip. Try using a magenta, crimson or tangerine shade for a fun, fabulous finish.
Now that I’ve given you the step-by-step on how to create the perfect summer look for your backyard or beachfront boogies, I challenge you try it out and maximize your makeup efforts this summer!
