** the sun, the sea, a cold drink, a good book, a
stroll by the water...... enjoy! **
It's vacation time and our summer makeup needs to reflect this!
We want to let our hair down and not be too fussy about the way we
look. These months are all about looking
natural. The fewer products we apply, the more we let our
natural
tanned beauty glow.
So which colours are suitable for summer? Golds and silvers are great
as they compliment any tanned skin. Any light colour is good
for the summer months.
Below are a few examples of summer makeup looks.

BRONZE
FEST EYE LOOK
The words "bronze" and "summer" just go so well together, don't you
think? I LOVE this look. It's not too flashy and very summery. I used
different shades of browns, using the natural looking makeup technique.
I added a touch of brown/black to the outer crease to intensify the
depth and finished with an overall dusting of bronze shimmer. I didn't
even use mascara or liner because the bronze
shimmer deposits on my
lash lines had created a lovely "fairy-tale-like" effect I didn't want
to ruin.
This eye makeup look would bring to life anybody's summer tan. Go for
it!
