BEAUTY BAR: Just Glow With It

April 20th, 2017 at 2:00am

The end of the semester is fast approaching and that bug to get out of school won’t stop itching. When my professor says “study” all I hear is “summer.” You’re either still recovering from PSBD (Post Spring Break Depression), or you’re enviously eyeing everyone that got to enjoy the beach while you were home in bed. Your tan is either fading, or at this point, totally nonexistent. Either way, the crave for that summer skin is real. When I saw this bronze babe of a Fashionista, I just had to know her beauty secrets.

When it comes to getting a sunny glow before the season is even here, there are a handful of products that can do the job for you. No matter how many people tell you, “pale is pretty” it’s hard to not miss your tan. Before you go baking in a tanning bed or slap on that streaky self-tanning lotion, try adding an extra touch of bronzer. This Fashionista used bronzer along her cheekbones, up and around her forehead, and down her jawline and neck for even blending. We can credit our rosy cheeks in the summer to too much sun and not enough SPF, but for now this Fashionista sprinkled on a little blush to create the same look. To keep things warm and natural looking, she used gold toned eyeshadows and a mauve lipstick.

As if her makeup wasn’t dreamy enough, even this Fashionista’s outfit is styled for summer. It’s always a good sign when the weather calls for nothing heavier than a lightweight jacket and tank top. Don’t hesitate to break out your warm-weather wardrobe, just incorporate it into today’s!

Studying may be on your schedule but summer is on your mind. I think we can all admit that college seems like a never ending cycle of “I don’t want to do it but I’m going to do it anyway.” I say, just go with it. Maybe you’re hopping on the highlight trend or just trying to add some sun and sparkle to your skin. I say, just glow with it.
