Beauty Makeup Tips in Summer

In Summer, the light from the sun is stronger than ever and so any imperfections on our faces may be highlighted more than in winter or in darker light.
However, it is essential in summer that you actually lighten your make up rather than increase it. If you cake on the make up in summer it will be visible for all to see and look quite stupid.
Furthermore, the heat of the sun may literally melt your face! with the result of not only looking bad but having a bad effect on your skin too.
Thus, stick to a little shimmering powder and highlight your eyes, maybe a little lipstick but otherwise leave as is.
Summer is not the time to pile on the makeup or whip up elaborate hairstyles. So, do I go bareface and pull my hair up into a knot every day to stay cool? I wish I could, but few of us can get away with that. So, here is a list of my favorites.
· First of all comes the sunblock. I never go out the door without a little protection. My face is already thanking me for that!
· While I might not apply a foundation, I do need a little color on my cheeks. I find that stains or blush creams give just the right amount of color and it looks natural.
·There is nothing prettier than seeing shiny hair on the beach and nothing worse than seeing long, dull, tresses. But it takes a little work. The sun is hard on your hair too. Condition well and use products especially formulated for the summer sun.
· I can get away without eye shadow, but I do need eye liner. And because I have oily lids, I always prep the lid. There is nothing worse that eye liner that has smeared. Not a pretty site. BTW, most cosmetic companies offer great products to prevent your eye makeup from melting.
·Heavy lipsticks aren’t for summer either. Look for something sheer. I often mix my lipsticks with a little petroleum jelly. It softens the color and offers great shine too.
· Polish those toenails, and while you are at it, make sure that your heels are free of dead skin. You might not notice it, but everyone else will.
· Keep your eyes open for little summer bags. I recently picked one up that was part of a set from Victoria Secret. Have you checked out their fragrances? Now, I not only smell good, I have a great little bag as well!
Another more helpful tips
Use a waterproof eyeliner for lasting power. You can also moisten your favourite shadow with water and apply it to your lash line.
Wear waterproof mascara to eliminate smudges under the eyes.
When it comes to cheeks, apply a stain to the apple to create a long-lasting effect.
Finish your look with the bronzer of your choice.
Once you apply your lipstick or gloss, place a tissue over your lips, run your finger across the paper and then remove the tissue. This will help to get rid of the excess but will not take away the pigment. Last but not least, have fun with your makeup. If you make a mistake you can always start again.

its summer so you dont wanna spend too much time in the mirror
keep it simple and fresh with waterproof eye products (if you are going swimming)
depending on your skin tone and all, just take what you usually do durring the year and tone it down a few levels, and then add a summery eyeshadow color like coral or pink

Use an SPF day cream as most wrinkles are caused by sun damage.
Then use a Vitamin E cream at night as they reduce the size of wrinkles, fine lines, treat sun burns, is an antioxidant as well as treating free radicals, which cause wrinkles
Thanks my advice!
Yes, Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair is Great.
Here are my very own personal tips! I hope you like them! You can also find loads of summer beauy tips from this month's seventeen magazine.
Hair:
Try to use minimal styling products, except for light holding hairspray. Also, let your hair naturally fall. Summer is the perfect time to wear your hair's natural texture.
Skin:
Try salts baths! Adding rock salt, and scrubbin down with it in the tub will make your skin feel incredibly soft and smooth. Afterwards, be sure to moisture your skin with naturals oils, like store-bought olive oil, or almond oil.
Face:
You can make your eyes stand out by using clear-masacra, its definitely a nice break from the regular black, or dark brown. Also, if you dont want to have the feel of "pancake" face, (since wearing foundation in the summer can be a bit heavy) Skip the foundation, and try spritizing your face with water, and then applying mineral powder to your face. It gives you the same coverage, and it makes your face look a lot more natural!

great vid! where did you get the MSF with shimmer? do MAC still sell those
You can buy a waterproofer from bare escentuals that is designed for eyeliner but can be used with eyeshadow close to the lashes, too. Waterproof mascara isn't necessary unless you're actually getting in and out of water…
If you are thinking about hanging out at the pool or beach, think about using the heat/ humidity to your advantage and get a heavy conditioner to pull through your hair and get a "deep conditioning" while you're at it.
I also like using a tinted lip balm with spf 15 : ) That way it's not overdone but you still feel a little colour and you're protected, too!
Have fun!
great buys girlie, i want your ring & the palette that you say is better than Mac =].
some people have it in their head that Mac is the best, but they’re not, there are better things out there. thanks for telling the truth
