The spring semester is coming to an end and summer is about to begin! For us Floridians, summer is a never-ending season because our winters are hot, our spring is hotter and summer is the hottest time of year. What does this horrible heat mean? This means that the makeup you worked so hard on literally melts off of your face as soon as you walk outside of your house.
No one wants to leave their humble abode and pull a Wizard of Oz catch phrase moment and yell, “I’m melting!” If you ever have this problem, today’s Fashionista and I are here to rescue you! This Fashionista is rocking a foolproof and waterproof makeup look that you can wear to the beach, the pool or just outside in the hot weather. For the spring and summer time, the most important part of a makeup look is the primer! Priming your face and eye area is vital because this will keep your face waterproof and nothing will sweat off. Next, light coverage foundations or BB creams are the best products for your face because they won’t be dripping off or patching thanks to your sweat. These products normally have SPF to protect you from the sun as well, so that is definitely a must!
Highlighting the high points of your face is also a great way to make your look more dewy and have a nice glow. Brightly colored matte lip stains add a pop of color to your look and since stains are truly made to stain your lips for a few hours, you can drink, eat, swim and sweat without it coming off!
What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To achieve this look, you will need a dewy primer and foundation, highlighter and lip stain. Your face primer can work on your eyelids as an eyeshadow primer and the highlighter can also serve as eyeshadow. Keeping the look neutral can also give more leeway for the color you decide to apply on your lips. Remember, always rock the dew!
