* MAKEUP TiPS *

Make up trends for the summer months:
The makeup you'll be wearing for the next couple of months this summer should be bright, fun, and fresh faced.

Skincare:
St. Ives Apricot Scrub
Bye Bye Blemish Acne Treatment
Clinique Dramatically Different Moistureizer SPF 15
-I own all of these products and they have definitely made a difference in my skin. The Bye Bye Blemish gets rid of zits so quickly and i use the Clinique so my skin doesn't get dry. Also, the St. Ives works amazingly at getting rid of dead skin and unclogging pores, I love it.

Face:
Tinted Moistureizer with an SPF of 15 or higher.
Neutragena Skin Clearing Foundation
-Try not to use a lot of foundation in the summer because with this and the sweat, sand, and dirt from summer clogging your pores you are more likely to break out but with a tinted moistureizer you can moistureize, get SPF, and coverage all in one.
-If you don't feel comfortable with out wearing foundation you should try Neutragena's Skin Clearing Foundation because it contains Salycylic acid to prevent and treat acne blemishes.

Blush/Bronzer:
Bare Minerals Warmth (bronzer)
Almay Pressed Powder Blushes
-I like this bronzer because it has a nice, even color that compliments many skin tones and is a matte shade.
-These new Almay blushes will be really good for summer because they are also pressed powders so they reduce oil concentration on the skins surface which can also reduce the amount of break outs you have and are organic.

Eyes:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance
-To prevent oil and sweat from removing makeup prematurley.

Aqua or Turquoise eyeshadows
Gold eyedshadows
Neutral looks including browns, tans, beiges, etc.

Lips:
MAC Myth lipstick
-a great pale, peachy nude lipstick
MAC tinted lipglass in Underage
-a soft pink with a touch of shimmer
MAC tinted lipglass in Pink Poodle
-a bright fuchsia with gold shimmer which will bring out your tan

Nails:
Nail art
Bright, neon colors like yellow, purple, blue, and orange.
