Ease into Summer with these Hot Makeup Trends:
Hello beautiful people! The sun is shining and the heat is coming; summer is officially right around the bend! Try some of these makeup trends to get your summer started.
This summer is all about bold features, fine lines, and the ever so popular natural look. You can also try out a new spin on the classic smoky eye by substituting black with brown!
Bold Features
Bright lips are SO in, as well as hints of bold color on your lids! Remember to alternate each style so you don't end up overdoing it. Try a colorful pop on your lips (like gloMinerals Suede Matte Stick in Punch) and then switch it up another day by pairing a nude lip with bright eyes (like Pur Minerals Double Ego Eyelinerin Queensland or Rio De Janiero). A little color can go a long way!
Fine Lines
Another thing that we are seeing a lot of this season is the winged-out look. This is a dramatic look that is a step above the classic cat eye! You can achieve this look by starting with a cat eye and exaggerating the tip up in the shape of a wing. We recommend the new Grande Liner in Rich Black because it not only looks and feels amazing, but it also improves the appearance of your lashes!
Natural Look
One of the most beautiful looks for this summer is the seemingly bare face. Not all of us were blessed with immaculate skin and naturally chiseled cheek bones. Because of this, there are many products that help us achieve the 'I'm naturally this perfect' look. The key to healthy skin is to cleanse, tone, treat, and protect. Wearing sunscreen daily is one of the best things that you can do for your skin. EltaMD UV Clear Broad-SpectrumSPF 46 is a great daily sunscreen that is formulated to help reduce the appearance of blemishes, discoloration, and photo-damaged skin. It's also fragrance free and noncomedogenic!
After your healthy skin routine, it's time for damage control. Try a buildable mineral base, like gloMinerals gloPressed Base, and then conceal any blemishes that need more coverage. If you can get away with low coverage, you can skip the base and go for a tinted moisturizer! After your skin is looking and feeling divine, give yourself some color with the Pur Minerals Let It Glow Cheek Trio or a quality bronzer to sweep upwards along your cheek bones.
Brown Smoky Eye
The smoky eye is a timeless classic and this season it's all about the brown smoky eye. Try this look out with the Osmosis Colour Eye Shadow Trio in Bronzed Cocoa or go for an earthy feminine smoky look with the gloMinerals gloMetallic Smoky Eye Kit.
*Make it even more dramatic with a fierce brow using Osmosis Colour Water Resistant Brow Gel in brown
