Simply Glam Summer Beauty

June 23rd, 2017 at 2:00am

With summer and its weather quickly approaching, many Fashionistas begin to wonder if putting on a full face of makeup is really worth it. This Fashionista decided that doing a full face would definitely be worth the risk, regardless of the impending summer heat, and gave it a go.

To create this simple, yet glam summer look, this Fashionista started by moisturizing and using Glossier’s Invisible Shield sunscreen. She used Urban Decay’s Naked Skin concealer and MAC’s Next to Nothing foundation so that she could have the coverage she wanted without feeling like she was wearing too much in the summer weather. To finish her face, she used Laura Mercier setting powder and baked bronzer. She added the Anastasia Beverly Hills So Hollywood highlighter for a fabulous glow. To create the warm toned look on her eyes, she used Anastasia Beverly Hills single shadows. This Fashionista finished off her eyes with Benefit Cosmetics Roller Lash mascara to make her lashes pop. For her brows, she went with the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer and clear brow gel. To complete the look, she used Buxom’s gloss in the shade White Russian To set the final product, she used GlamGlow’s setting spray.

This Fashionista paired her simple, yet glam beauty look with a casual outfit that could be worn throughout the day, or even for a casual night out with friends. She wore a cropped white T-shirt and low-rise, linen pants from Urban Outfitters. Linen is the perfect summer fabric because it is light and breathable! She paired her outfit with a pair of sandals, perfect for the daytime. To amp up this outfit for a night out, she could switch out the sandals for wedges and add a few accessories. This Fashionista also kept her hair simple by embracing her natural curls and letting them down.

When talking with this Fashionista, she expressed that her beauty inspiration is YouTuber Jaclyn Hill. She loves to watch Jaclyn’s videos to see the new looks she creates, then uses Jaclyn’s looks to inspire her own beauty style.

Even though the heat of the summer is approaching, don’t let it stop you from doing your makeup as simple or as glamorous as you want!
