During summer, there’s nothing better than radiant, light-filled, natural-looking makeup!
Foundations, concealers, bronzers, blushes, illuminators, lip glosses... Follow these easy steps to get the perfect seasonal look.
Step 1: Even out your skin tone
After you’ve finished your skincare routine, you’ll want to even out your complexion using a light-cover foundation or a tinted oil stick. Simply cover your face and neck and then blend the product in using a sponge or brush.
Step 2: Camouflage imperfections
Camouflaging dark circles and imperfections is a snap! Simply...
- Use a concealer that’s a little lighter than your foundation.
- Apply a drop of concealer to the inner corners of your eyes and a short swipe of the concealer to the outer corners.
- Blend upwards using a sponge or your fingertips.
Psst! You don’t have to use a lot of the product. In fact, it will only magnify the look of your dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles.
Step 3: Sculpting your face
To add greater definition to your face, simply apply a little bronzer to the hollows of your cheeks, the sides of your nose and the top of your forehead. Then, using a sponge or a brush, blend the product into your skin until the lines disappear, creating a light contouring effect.
Step 4: Colour your cheeks
It’s always good to add a little colour to your face! Start by finding the shade of blush that suits you best: pink, coral, peach... the choice is yours. Apply by dabbing a little onto your cheeks and blending it in to eliminate any lines or marks.
Pro tip: Apply darker blush to your upper cheeks and a lighter shade to your cheekbones. The result? You’ll get an instantly lifted-looking face with a compelling 3D effect.
Step 5: Illuminate your face
Try using an illuminator stick to add a subtle glow of natural light to your face. Just apply the product to the top of your cheekbones, under your eyebrows, to the bridge of your nose and to the top of your upper lip.
Step 6: Make your lips shine
Add a dab of lightly tinted moisturizing lip gloss to complete your summer look.
