Tips To Create Your Summer Beach Look

Preparation: Skincare for a Beachy Glow

To start, prepping your skin is crucial for achieving that radiant beachy glow. Here’s a recommended skincare routine:

  • Cleanser: Use a gentle cleanser to remove any impurities.
  • Moisturizer with SPF: Hydrate and protect your skin from harmful UV rays with a lightweight moisturizer containing SPF.
  • Hydrating Primer: Apply a hydrating primer to ensure your makeup stays put and your skin looks dewy all day.

Creating a Flawless Base

  • Foundation: Choose a lightweight, dewy foundation or a tinted moisturizer to let your natural skin shine through. Apply it with a beauty sponge for a seamless blend.
  • Concealer: Apply minimal concealer where needed for a fresh appearance, focusing on areas like under the eyes and any blemishes.

Adding Warmth with Bronzer

To achieve a sun-kissed glow select a bronzer shade that complements your skin tone. Apply it to the cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin to mimic a natural tan.

Blush and Highlighter

Add a pop of color and a radiant finish using coral or peach tones to add a natural flush to your cheeks. Don’t forget the highlight! Apply highlighter to the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, brow bone, and cupid’s bow.

Eyes: Soft and Natural

Keep your eye makeup simple. Opt for warm neutrals and shimmery tones. Apply a light wash of color on the lids. Use a waterproof mascara to finish off your look.

Keep Your Brows Looking Natural

Natural, feathered brows are in so lightly fill in your brows with natural strokes using a brow pencil or gel. Brush them up for a fuller, feathered look. 

Beachy Pouty Lips Are In
