SOME TIPS FOR A QUEENSLAND SUMMER MAKEUP
1. Make time for primer, which goes on after moisturizer but before face makeup. Like house-paint primer, it provides a smooth base for whatever goes on next. They're incredibly light & don't feel at all like a heavy, additional layer. They really help hold makeup in place.
2. Swap foundation for tinted moisturizer. These sheer formulas look and feel airier on skin and are less likely to turn cakey on steamy days. If you need a little extra coverage try brushing powder foundation over the tinted moisturizer in spots where you need a little extra coverage on blemishes or areas of redness around your nose. To eliminate unsightly shine in seconds, nothing beats blotting papers.
3. Get a natural-looking flush before going outside by applying a light stain to your cheeks. Smile and apply directly to the apples of your cheeks. Rub it in to blend and look like you're glowing from the inside out.
4. Avoid a pair of the dreaded raccoon eyes this summer by picking a waterproof mascara that will stay on your lashes. Apply mascara from the base of your lashes to the end, wiggling the wand slightly as you make your way up. This method provides better coverage, and your mascara will stay on longer too.
5. Since heavy lip colors often feel like overkill once the weather warms up, many women opt for clear balm or skip their lips altogether. But just because you're feeling low-maintenance doesn't mean you have to look it. A simple swipe-and-go choice: tinted lip balms.
