Feather Light Summer Make-Up!

We are all well aware that summer is here and mother nature isn't letting up quite yet. However, just because it's a little on the hot and humid side doesn't mean you can't wear make-up and continue to look fresh but have it feel light. Here are a couple ideas for you to use if you're willing to switch up your normal make up route for a quick short cut!

1st - You may want to consider trading your usual liquid or powder foundation for something light! We are fans of tinted moisturizer and bb cream! It'll feel as light as a feather.

2nd - A favorite amongst the Crimson Ladies is bronzer! Be easy on the applications ladies! It is very easy to go overboard with this so please use a light hand. As far as applying, think about the places that the sun hits naturally. Dust some on your checks, forehead, nose and a little on your chin. Think natural.

3rd - Next comes blush! A wash of a peachy-coral will lighten up your appearance and give you a glow from within. Usually, we'd recommend a cream but that doesn't always fit everyone's skin types. So here are our picks for those from dry to oily skin concerns.

4th - Now when it comes to the eyes, you can either leave the lid bare or feel free to use your bronzer or blush for an eye shadow; the gold in the bronzer has the ability to awaken the tired eye! It'll look absolutely beautiful and fresh. Now for eyeliner...we have mixed views. Some of the ladies like eyeliner and are faithful to wearing it while others can do without. We like this eyeliner for the top lid. It'll make your top lash line seem fuller and it can also hide any mistakes one may make when applying the mascara!

5th - Last but not lips ;) Some may be a fan of gloss or lipstick but during the summer, low maintenance is a must! That's why we are fans of a lip stain! Just a note - make sure you exfoliate your lips a head of time so get rid of anything chapped and just remember a little goes a long way. It also dries fast so work quickly! For those who like shiny lips, you can always dab some clear gloss on top!


We hope you enjoy these little make up tips from our beauty closet to yours :)
