Sunscreen-
My most used sunscreen
La Roche-Posay Anthelios 60. It’s an ultra light sunscreen fluid, which leaves no greasy cast and absorbs well.Primer-
BB cream-
Foundation-
Concealer-
Nothing beats MAC Pro longwear concealer.. hands down! Just set it with a setting powder and you are good to go!
Setting, Finishing powder-
If you are using a concealer to hide the dark circles around your eyes, setting power is a must! I use Ben Nye Banana powder to set the concealer.
For finishing, I use Urban Decay De-Slick mattifying powder or Dim Light powder from Hourglass ambient lighting palette. I just dust it with a big fluffy brush on the T zone.
Setting Spray-
If you are wearing full face makeup, the last thing you will want is makeup meltdown. To prevent this, set your makeup with a setting spray. I do not use one daily, but when I know I will be out for a long time and I want my face to look presentable, I use Urban Decay All nighter makeup setting spray.
CHEEK:
Bronzer-
I am usually tanned….so bronzer is optional for me. I use it lightly to add some definition on my face. Currently I am using Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer which looks almost non-existent on my NC 35-40 skin. But it gives a nice slight definition which I love for everyday use. MAC blush in Blunt is also a good option.
Blush-
Highlighter-
EYES:
MAC Blacktrack fluidline is a classic black gel liner. But if you are looking for colorful options, try Urban decay’s 24/7 liners. Great color options, greater color payoffs and stays on for a long time!
Benefit has launched a new gel liner “
They’re Real Push Up Liner” which comes in a pen with a unique tip. This is a great product for Summer. Once it’s set, it won’t budge. Benefit is my go-to liner these days.Mascara-
Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara is also good..if you want some drama on your lashes, you are gonna love it!
Eyeshadow-
I don’t have affinity for any particular shadow, I use one depending on my attire and how much time I have to get ready.
2 great options are- Urban Decay Electric palette (left) if you are looking for playful color and MAC quad in Devilishly Dark (right) if you are looking for a more understated look.
Personally I prefer long lasting lipcolor formulas on Summer months. Here’s what I am digging this season-
NAIL COLOR:
So which colors I am loving this season? Orange, coral, purple, hot pink…. Heck, there’s no right or wrong in colors, if you like one- go for it girl, whatever the season is! My current favorite colors are these-
