If you’re looking forward to the fun, sun, and warm days of summer, we’ve put together some of the amazing makeup trends that’ll have you looking fashionably cool this summer. Time to put away your cool-toned shadows and dark lipsticks of winter because this summer is going to be all about pastels, natural tones, and minimalist glam.
Check out these easy looks for some inspiration so you can get your makeup color palette ready for those hot summer days.
Smudged Eyeliner. This is a great look for on the go because being naturally imperfect is part of the style! Use your regular crayon or pencil eyeliner in whatever color you like – black, charcoal, or even a fun color is perfect – and apply as you normally would. Then, use a short, dense eyeshadow brush to gently blur and soften the lines.
Smudged Pastel Eye Shadow. This spring and summer are all about pastel hues; yellow, pink, purple, blue, and even green! Pair your pastel shadow with neutral lip color to let your eyes stand out and be the center of attention.
Copper Shadow. Want a simple look that makes people do a double-take? Use a bronzer, warm neutral lipstick, and a shimmery eye shadow to give off a polished sun-kissed vibe. This look doesn’t take a lot of blending or time to pull off.
Gold Shadow. Looking glamorous this summer on your nights out with gold eyeshadow. Pair a couple of layers of gold eyeshadow with a heavy, smudgy liner, and you’ll be ready for any summer party.
Feathery Brows. Feathery, or fluffy, eyebrows go great with natural or minimal makeup this summer. Simply get your brows shaped with one of our estheticians, and then on those days, you want fluffy brows, brush your brows upward and straighten and lengthen the hairs.
Minimalist Glam. Minimalist glam means giving your natural makeup routine just a touch of glam without being too over the top. Achieve this look with simple makeup, two gems on each inner eye with some soft smudgy liner. The finished look will look simple yet amazing!
Coral-Red Lips. Bold lips are a staple no matter the time of year. Swap out your cooler-toned reds with a warmer hue like coral red. It’ll dress up any summer ensemble and can be used with just a touch of makeup for a daytime look or dress up for the night with a heavy eye.
During the summer, whether you’re wearing makeup or not, sunscreen is vital for the overall health and appearance of your skin. The skin on your face is especially sun-sensitive so you should regularly wear something on your face. This can include a sunscreen designed for your face, a foundation with SPF, or a lightweight daily face moisturizer with SPF such as the bareMinerals Skinlongevity Vital Power Moisturizer with SPF 30 or Bioelements SPF 50 FaceScreen. Both are great at protecting and nourishing your skin while replenishing essential moisture.
Here are some benefits of regularly using sunscreen and skincare products that contain SPF:
Keep your complexion even. Using sunscreen products on your face will help to keep your complexion balanced and even. Uneven skin tones are often caused by sun damage.
Protect against visible signs of premature aging. Overexposure to sunlight can increase the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. To prevent premature aging, and enjoy youthful, radiant, healthy-looking skin for longer, practice good skincare all summer.
Overall healthy skin. Using sunscreen or skincare products that contain SPF will protect essential proteins such as keratin that work to keep skin smooth and healthy.
Reduces the risk of cancer. Sunscreen is very effective in reducing the risk of skin cancer. Even on an overcast day, UV rays can cause burning which can later cause a host of skin problems including skin cancer.
At Bella Bronze, we use bareMinerals makeup & skincare products that will keep you looking great all summer. We also offer Bioelements which is a professional skincare line that targets all skin concerns including dry, parched summer skin.
