Hot girl summer is on its way, where we all will be showing off our swimsuits and spending more time in the sun. Since we will be out in the sun more, it's important to protect our skin. Protecting your face through the power of simple makeup is the key to achieving that healthy summer glow. Listed below are a few tips to help you complete the perfect (and simple) summer makeup to help you feel protected and beautiful during those long days out in the sun!
Tip #1: Sunscreen - The Ultimate Skin Protectant!
In order to achieve the perfect base for your makeup while also keeping your skin protected from the sun’s harmful rays, using sunscreen is the perfect way to achieve this! Try to go for sunscreens with an SPF of at least 40+ with niacinamide if possible.
Products I love are any of the Supergoop! sunscreens as well as the Elta MD UV Clear.
Tip #2: Blush - The Perfect Cheek Tint!
Especially with our faces being more exposed, we want to showcase the best versions of our skin, and adding light color to the face is a great way to do this! Blush is the key to not only brightening up the face, but also helping achieve that healthy summer glow. I recommend liquid or cream blushes for the summer since they are more subtle and appear more natural on the skin.
Products I love are the Glossier Cloud Paints and the Rare Beauty Liquid Blush.
Tip #3: Highlighter - That Healthy Glow, Baby, Glow!
My favorite part of my makeup routine is applying highlighter. It’s the easiest way to get a natural glow while also adding some dimension and sheen to your face. Highlighters come in many forms, colors, and intensities, but for this summer I would recommend aiming for highlighters that give off a more natural shine, so those that are liquids, creams, or sticks.
Products I love are the Colourpop Super Shock Highlighters and the Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand.
Tip #4: Mascara - The Best Subtle Lash Boost!
To help make our eyes look more awake, as well as give our lashes a nice boost of length and volume, mascara is the best way to add some emphasis and deepen the dimensions of your face. Go for pigmented mascaras that are long-lasting, give a nice boost of volume, and are smudge-free!
Products I love are the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara and the Milk Makeup Kush High Volume Mascara.
Tip #5: Lip Oils - The Key to Hydrated Lips for Days!
Lip oils are the perfect way to complete your makeup look! They are not only simple products but they also most importantly help add color, moisture, and shine to the lips. Think of your favorite lip gloss and lip balm combined into one perfect product– that’s what lip oil is!
Products I love are the Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil and the Jouer Cosmetics Essential Hydrating Lip Oil.
