Summer Makeup Ideas

Summer makeup requires a special approach - it sounds boring and problematic, but in fact, this is an interesting mini-adventure. Because make-up can be called a way of knowing oneself, broadcasting "I-message", and, as a person's mood is different, life period, needs, so does his make-up.

And in the summer, it is dictated not only by the opportunity to emphasize fundamentally different outfits, but also by the peculiarities of the climate: it makes sense to learn how to make persistent, light makeup.

There is only one cosmetic product that you can use in the summer, if not without restrictions, then as much as possible. This is sanskrin. But all other cosmetics should be dosed. 7 main rules of summer makeup.

• Minimal make... And it does not matter at all for what purpose a woman is painting - going for a walk, going to work or going on vacation. The stage of applying the base in the heat is often skipped, the emphasis is on working with concealer.
• A cream with a tinted effect and reflective particles in priority. It is suitable for those girls who are not ready to give up make-up in the summer, even for a simple walk. The tone will lie in an even and light layer, it will not be felt as a load even in the heat.
• Glitter is good, but it shouldn't be too much.... And if such a brilliant story is still suitable for a disco or a party, then during the day it can mix with the oily natural shine, and there will be a failure.
• Multifunctional tools are our everything. And this is not an exaggeration. The era of multifunctional cosmetics has come, which is great from the point of view of conscious consumption. For example, you can use one tint for the cheeks and lips. And the versatility of the pencil is difficult to exaggerate: both eyeliner and eyebrows, and a light contour for lipstick.
• Only long-lasting mascara. In the heat, this rule cannot be avoided.But you can play with the color of the mascara as you like: purple, green, blue, burgundy - it is in the summer that all this becomes unconditionally appropriate.
• The lipstick is applied in a special way. Better to do it like this: drive the pigment into your lips with your fingertips, blot it with a napkin and repeat the cycle again until the color is acceptable.
• No need to cover up freckles... In the summer they appear in many, and for some unknown reason, the girls are ashamed of them. Of course, the tone will help muffle pronounced pigmentation, but if there are few freckles, they should only be emphasized. For a summer make-up, they are practically the best natural accent.

In general, summer is a great time for experiments, bold experiments with shadows, berry lipsticks, and eye makeup. And it is very important not to forget that makeup is a part of the image, which should be in harmony with the rest of its components. For example, the eyeliner can be matched to the tone of the earrings. And you can make your eyebrows darker / lighter to suit the color of your clothes.

There is such a thing as a basic stock of cosmetics. Summer can be viewed separately, as, in principle, it is logical at the beginning of the season to reload the cosmetic bag.

What's in this basic summer stock:

• thermal water in a small bottle - great refreshing in the heat;
• matting wipes - help out if the skin began to shine oily;
• moisturizing cream with a protective (from the sun) factor;
• lightweight foundation with breathable structure;
• powder with SPF, so that it does not clog pores, evens out the tone, protects from the active sun;
• make-up fixing spray with a refreshing effect;
• waterproof mascara;
• lip balm with sun protection.

However, of course, there is no need to throw away universal cosmetics anywhere. For example, in the summer, a girl may want to make arrows, paint her lips with red lipstick, if the case is right. But many basically want to relieve the face in the summer - if a sunburn appears, it is easier to do it. But even a natural make-up, very light, almost invisible, you also need to be able to do it.

There are 3 popular scenarios that are in demand in the summer and have their own nuances of implementation.

Arrows to arrows differ, as well as the shape of the eyes is very different, and this should be taken into account in the make-up. For example, owners of almond-shaped eyes need to make arrows with a thickening towards the outer corner. In this case, the lower eyelid stands out only partially, only by a third. If the eyes have drooping corners, the arrows should have expressive long tails that rush to the temples. For round eyes, arrows with horizontal tails will be suitable, that is, visually stretching the shape of the eye. Well, for women with an overhanging eyelid, you need to make wide arrows that will fill the visible part of the moving eyelid.

Summer make-up options - what the arrows can be.

• Basic model. An even and neat arrow is made, emphasizing the line of the eyelashes, visually increasing their density. If the lashes are painted black at the same time, the makeup becomes even more expressive.

• Option with two ends. The eyelashes will be visually thicker, the look will acquire additional playfulness. Moreover, the arrow does not have to be black. It is worth taking a closer look at dark brown, chocolate and coffee pencils - they make the makeup softer, which is why it can be considered daytime too.

• Classic type... A tail and a thin strip are drawn along the ciliary row, then these parts are connected to each other. The arrow thickens evenly.

• Half type... If the eyes are close to each other, it is worth taking on such a make-up. The inner corner of the eye is lightened, and the arrow is drawn only from the middle of the eyelid.

• Haute couture. In this case, the arrow fills almost the entire eyelid: dark and wide on the upper eyelid, colored and bright - on the lower. This is an option for an evening out or a special occasion.

And in this case, you need to clearly remember the rules that apply to any make-up with red lipstick - both summer and universal. These are the rules.

• Blush and lipstick should be in harmony - it's easier not to look for a product to match, but to use lipstick also as a blush. In summer, this can be done a little less actively.
• With daytime make-up, let your eyes remain "clean" you can do without eye shadow, eyeliner and even mascara. If for some reason this is not possible, mascara is enough. But in the evening, the look can be enhanced, to make the eyes more expressive. Better if these are graceful arrows.
• If red lipstick is part of the office look, it works best with light-colored outfits (especially shirts and blouses)... Then the choice should fall on matte and creamy textures, they will look less defiant during the day.
• Fashionable and attractive especially in summer - make-up with the effect of kissed lips. Apply lipstick to the lips with the pads of your fingers, making characteristic hammering movements, and then shade the contours.

The foundation, even the coolest one, only lets many women down in the summer: it's hot with it, it “floats”, it is difficult to avoid the mask effect. I want lightness, finally. Of course, this is possible, and there are 2 options for the development of events. The first is radical, no tone on the face, period. But it assumes good skin, clean, without pronounced defects, as a basis. The second option is a compromise, a dense tone is not used, but CC-cream is quite possible for yourself.

What is CC Cream: This is an improved version of BB Cream. If it doesn't become clearer, I'll have to explain it in more detail. BB cream (Blamish Balm) is considered a light foundation, the texture of which is very delicate, and it is itself less dense than a regular foundation. Many representatives of this product are distinguished by their ability to adapt to a woman's skin, that is, the tone of such a cream can be considered universal.

So, CC cream has several translations: control color, complete control, color correction. In fact, it is, it is a universal corrector that, in addition, perfectly moisturizes the skin, nourishes it, protects it from the sun, and is even used as a prevention of aging.

For a summer make-up, in which you want to "relax" the skin as much as possible, CC cream is an amazing find. If there is a goal to abandon even it, you need to prepare the skin for the summer season in advance. This is a mode of moisturizing, nutrition, masks for skin tone, regular use of fabric masks with different functions, patches. And, of course, this is a drinking regimen, proper nutrition, visits to a beautician and much more. Then the make-up will do without a foundation. It will be based on mascara or lipstick, or both in harmonious proportions.

And a few more tips to help make eye color an additional tool in creating beauty on your face.

Eye color and summer make-up:

• blue - warm and dark shadow palettes are preferable (beige, dark milky, champagne), pink and red shadows will look especially convincing in summer;

• gray - if the color of the eyes is gray-blue, the same is taken as for blue-eyed girls, if gray-green - brown, golden and khaki are in favor;

• hazel - blue and plum tones on the eyes will be in the top, as a daily make-up it is worth focusing on the nude style;

• green - universal gray color, golden, bronze and blue-violet, almost everything goes with green eyes.
