Summer make-up is bright and bold. But before you pick up paints (albeit decorative, but cosmetics), do not forget to do a general cleansing of your face and remember that even bold experiments require the right combination of colors.
Care: water-based cream, aloe gel
Summer — It's time to put aside nourishing creams (their time will come in winter) and go for those based on water or oxygen.
- For daily care, choose creams with arbutin, azelaic, kojic and salicylic acid, they even out the tone and have a slight exfoliating effect.
Skin (especially problematic) requires cleansing twice a day. For this purpose, soft foams, gels, mousses with a bacterial effect are suitable. Read labels carefully! They should list extracts such as aloe, calendula or sage, as well as acids (lactic, malic, glycolic) that help unclog pores and regulate sebum production.
- And remember: hot water activates the activity of the sebaceous glands. Therefore, you need to wash only with water at room temperature.
Makeup: healthy glow face and waterproof mascara
Summer makeup is largely determined by weather conditions.
In hot weather, it is better to refuse the usual eyeliner and eyebrows. It contains wax, which can melt in the sun. Therefore, it is better to use eyeliner for the eyes, and paint the eyelashes with waterproof mascara.
Another rule concerns the lips.
- It is better to replace lipstick with gloss, the delicate color of which will also make you look young.
In rainy weather, you should refuse powder: drops will leave a mark on it. It is better to limit yourself to a persistent foundation. And be sure to take matting wipes. They can easily remove drops from the face without smearing the tone.
Eyelashes can be thickly made up with waterproof mascara. If it crumbles, it will turn out
smoky eyes effect.
As for business makeup, it must meet two criteria: to be neat and at the same time invisible. To achieve this, first, a light matte foundation should be applied to a cleansed face and fixed with powder with reflective particles — they will give the face a healthy glow.
Rules for applying business make-up in summer:
- highlight the inner corners of the eyes with light eye shadow;
- shade the outer corners of the upper eyelids a tone darker;
- powder eyelashes and then powder;
- circle the contour of the lips with a special pencil and make them up with lipstick;
- set makeup with colorless powder.
Colour: green shadows, bronze powder and pink glitter
Bright make-up allows not only to emphasize facial features, but also to correct them. If you want to visually enlarge your eyes, take emerald shades. They should be applied not on the skin, but on top of the corrector, this will achieve a dense coverage and the color will sparkle. Bring the lower eyelid with a wet brush with dark emerald shadows. Then blend the golden-beige shadows all over the moving eyelid with your fingers.
If you want to give expressiveness to the look, make up the eyelashes along the entire length. Emphasize cheekbones with bronze powder. And apply pink gloss on your lips.
