Today’s solstice marks the official beginning of summer! Whether you’re braving the city heat wave or staying down the shore you still want to look your best. If you already wear a broad spectrum SPF daily and practice a good skincare regimen then your summer beauty routine is going to be a breeze. Here are some pointers to further enhance your natural beauty while beating the heat & humidity…
- Ditch the liquid foundations and opt for a little tinted moisturizer with an SPF. A little goes a long way for a fresh and dewy complexion. *Try applying with a damp sponge for even coverage.
- Try bronzer. The golden tones will give you a healthy looking sun-kissed glow.
- Exchange your high definition powder blush for a natural flush with crème blush.
- Matte lips can be a bit too dramatic for warmer weather. Instead try a neutral gloss or brightly colored lip stain.
- Heavily concentrated fragrances can quickly become overpowering on hot days. A lighthearted roll-on perfume like Kai is easy to throw in your bag and smells delightfully fresh.
- Smoky eyes are too intense for the beach. Instead sweep a golden shadow on your lids to keep your look light and modern.
- Don’t: succumb to raccoon eyes. Do: use a waterproof Eyeliner and Mascara
- Save your dark nail polish for Fall & Winter. Nudes, Neons, and Pastels will keep your look updated & cool.
- Lightly filling in or enhancing your brows will enable you to wear less makeup and place the emphasis on your eyes. Comb brows in place with a clear gel or a mousse to keep them in place all day.
- Rehydrate & Reapply often. UV Incellium spray instantly refreshes, hydrates, sets makeup, and adds extra protection with SPF 8.
