Summery Make-up

Nice weather + new make-up products = today’s make-up look.

This look is a doddle to apply and is a Summer holiday look (long-lasting, natural looking, without the requirement for zillions of products).

Top Tips:

  • Ensure that your tinted moisturiser has a minimum SPF15.
  • I find that I have to apply a little more powder than usual in this muggy weather, to prevent my look going from glowy to gooey!
  • If using a cream blush like I did, be sure to apply it before/under powder.
  • You will notice that I have used some ‘multifunctional’ products i.e. the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick and the Nars Multiple. When going on holidays, it’s a great idea to bring multi-tasking products with you so as you are not weighed down with cosmetics.
  • To complete my easy breezy Summer look, I ran a few curls into my hair using a GHD, spritzed it with some John Freida Shine Spray and a dash of hairspray to hold.

Yours in style,
Caroline
