It’s almost time for hot summer days, which also means it’s time to experiment with new makeup trends. We’ve put together 4 hottest makeup ideas to freshen up your summer look. Not only all these looks are trending, but they are also easy to create with only a few products that you may already have at home.
#1 Poppy lips
It’s officially bright lipstick season! Seriously, poppy red lips have never looked so cool with a pop of coral blush. It ties together tousled waves, dewy complexion and subtle, smoky eyes for a sweet, summery look. The key to pulling the bold lip look off? Perfectly lined lips, of course. And don’t forget to exfoliate your lips to create a smooth canvas for your lipstick to adhere to.
#2 Holiday glow
The sun is shining bright, but rather than sitting out in in the harmful UV ways, it’s better to fake it until you make it. How to do it? Bronzer is your best bet. Use it only on the areas the sun would naturally hit. Then dust a highlighter onto the tops of your cheekbones and in a C-shape around your eyebrows, also down the bridge of your nose. It’s all about adding light and shade, creating definition and acquiring a lit-from-within radiance.
#3 Bitten lips
The K-beauty bitten-looking lips are going nowhere. This ultra-feminine lip look gives the illusion as if your lips have just been kissed. How to get this pretty look? First, block out the edges of your mouth with concealer. Apply lipstick to the centre of your mouth and blend until you achieve a gradient lip look. If you are a little unsure, go for warm, peachy shades for a more natural look.
#4 Fake freckles
Freckles have become one of the must-have looks this summer. All you need is a brown eyeliner pencil. Keep in mind that your faux freckles should be the last step in your makeup routine. Apply makeup as you normally do and set it with a thin layer of translucent face powder. Then, use a brown eyeliner and lightly dot across your nose and cheeks to create cute, little faux freckles.
