Summer : Freshness in Makeup !
As the new summer season approaches, many of us are looking at the red carpets in hopes of getting an idea of the new clothing and makeup trends. The advantage with the arrival of beautiful days is the possibility of adopting a lighter makeup that will simply highlight our pretty tanned skin. It is then said goodbye to covering complexion products and dark shades worn during the fall and winter. While it is essential to remain glamorous and adapt your makeup to the seasonality, we will focus more on lightness, naturalness and mastered shine. Not surprisingly, for the summer, fresh makeup is in the spotlight! Here’s how to stay up to date, whether it’s product selection or makeup trend.
What products to use for fresh, summery makeup?
As you can see, the summer season is the perfect opportunity to lighten up your beauty routine. The goal is to let your skin breathe while naturally enhancing it. However, be careful not to overlook the care, because your epidermis feels the need more than ever. The sun and frequent swimming can dry your skin and it should be perfectly nourished and hydrated.
The complexion
For a fresh and healthy complexion, we recommend a water-based skincare routine that will deeply nourish the epidermis. Thus, a cleansing with tonic micellar water combined with the application of a moisturizing serum, then an anti-UV day cream, enriched with vegetable oil tightens the ideal care routine during the summer. Think also of the night cream, regenerating, to pose in thick mask before sleeping. Finally, don’t forget to scrub two to three times a week to remove excess dead skin from your face.
When it comes to complexion make-up, exit the covering foundation and place more fluid and light textures such as BB cream. You can choose to apply them alone or diluted in your usual moisturizer for a more airy effect. You can apply a few touches of dark circles to hide small skin imperfections. Be aware that in the summer, the trend is light, so we will choose complexion products, such as powders and blush, enriched with light-reflecting pigments. Finally, feel free to use a few highlighter keys to highlight some strategic areas of the face like the top of the cheekbones and the underside of the brow arch.
The eyes
For eye makeup, everything is allowed in the summer! The most acidic colors are allowed, because the look will be brighter. Moreover, by having a light complexion, you can force on the makeup of the eyes without falling into excess. The bright colors of purple and green, at match with your makeup. Finally, don’t forget that a well-drawn eyebrow line is the basis for any successful beauty.
as turquoise, purple and emerald green are particularly popular in summer. Moreover, the trend is neon eye makeup made with eye shadow. For lashes, forget the black mascara and bet on less supported colors such as gray or brown, or, more eccentric: blue,
The mouth
The mouth, meanwhile, is greedy and fresh in summer. If red is a timeless that does not experience the seasonal effect, be careful, however, not to bet on the eyes and mouth very colorful. Indeed, if you have chosen to give yourself a colorful look, stay simple for lip makeup by using a gloss or a nude or transparent lip lacquer. The matte lip inks chosen in neutral colors such as light taupe or beige will also perfectly enhance a fresh complexion. Conversely, if your eye makeup is light, do not hesitate to use gourmet shades on your lips such as coral, apricot or pink.
