Makeup with an emphasis on radiant and healthy skin is popular this summer - makeup artists abandon contouring and opt for strobing. Light makeup, careless styling is a reflection of the Californian style. This is a great option for a quick everyday make-up.
In contrast to natural looks, color will also be relevant. Especially bright shades on the eyes - green, purple, blue, crimson, yellow. But do not forget about bright lips, they are still in vogue - berry, wine, scarlet, orange.
How to make
Californian makeup
For a natural look, use light creamy textures and warm shades.
Mix 1-2 drops of Blend It Yourself with your favorite moisturizer. In the summer, I like taking care with sun protection filters, such as the Pep-Start HydroRush SPF 20 Moisturizer. By mixing the drops with the cream, you get a light, caring toner. If you like thicker coverage, you can increase the amount of Blend It Yourself and add 3-4 drops to the cream
Concealer Airbrush Concealer mask and highlight areas around the eyes, wings of the nose and corners of the lips
Brighten the skin with Chubby Stick Sculpting Highlight - apply to the upper cheekbones, bridge of the nose, center of the upper lip and chin
Create a subtle blush on your cheeks with Cheek Pop in the luscious Peach shade
Shape and tint your brows with Just Browsing Brush-On Styling Mousse
Apply a thin layer of Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes in Lots o 'Latte to the eyelids and Lash Power Mascara on the lashes. Before applying mascara, I recommend wiping off excess product from the brush with a napkin - this will help your eyelashes look natural
For a final touch, apply Chubby Pump & Shine Moisturizing Gloss in Warm Portly Peach to lips
Bright makeup with emphasis on the eyes
For an even, velvety complexion, use Superbalanced Silk Makeup SPF 15, a superbalanced lightweight foundation
Concealer All About Eyes to mask the signs of fatigue under the eyes. Don't skip this step - bright eye makeup can accentuate dark circles. Blend concealer and foundation
Create a subtle blush with Blushing Blush in Bashful Blush
Apply Powder from the Pretty Easy Brow Palette to your brows
Lightly dampen the sponge applicator with water and apply the bright blue shade of Lid Pop Surf Pop eyeshadow all over the movable eyelid. Apply shadow with light, hammering movements from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner. Why does the sponge have to be wet? This creates a more intense shade compared to brushing. Tip: If during the application of the eyeshadow pigment crumbled under the eyes, it can be easily removed with a cotton swab and a little Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion +
Apply 2-3 coats of High Impact Extreme Volume mascara. To avoid clumps, gently brush your eyelashes with a clean brush before applying a new layer
Finish the look with Chubby Plump & Shine Normous Nude
