Cool beauty looks for the hot summer season
(NC)-Whether it's a hot pink handbag, a bold blue bangle or wonderfully hued wedges, colourful accessories are this summer's hottest trend. So when it comes to your summer beauty routine, it's only natural to balance those bright bursts of colour with a fresh-faced, understated look.
For eyes, you can create a lustrous look for eyes with neutral and metallic shades that add subtle shimmer. "Neutral eye colour brings an incandescent beauty to your face, without looking overdone," says Debra Joseph, director of marketing, e-business and communications at Mary Kay Cosmetics Ltd.
Joseph suggests a light, shimmering eye colour shade, and Mary Kay's extensive Mineral Eye Color collection provides several options, such as honey spice, moonstone and spun silk. To brighten eyes, you'll want to apply these shades to the brow bone and the inner corners of the eyes to create a highlight effect.
To keep your summer look extra easy, consider using products than can do double duty, such as Mary Kay's new Mineral Bronzing Powder. "That's the beauty of bronzer," says Joseph. "It can add a summer glow all over skin or add shimmering highlights as a cheek or eye colour. It's a great option when you want to pack light for vacation or for a night out on the town."
For lips, sheer pinks, berries and nudes will add a perfect polish to your pout, but be sure to apply a lip balm with SPF underneath to protect lips.
So no matter what colourful accessory you'll be sporting this season, you're sure to pop with a light, fresh makeup look.
