• Pop of color

•  Standout lips

Lips can be a major look changer if you pick the right one for your skin tone,  bolder lips are not just a winter

or autumn trend, this particular trend extended to the warmer months as well, with a simple eye look bold and

bright fuchsia, rosy pink or even orange and coral tones can look amazing, especially with a summer tan.

Go for bright and vibrant lips and use a tad a liquid highlighter on your cupid's bow to make your lips appear

fuller than line them with a similar or matching lip liner and add a beautiful bright color of your choice, combine 

this with a warm toned neutral eyeshadow on the crease for definition and a brown or black kohl smudged

eyeliner on the lids as well as a subtle blush, preferably in the same shade family with the blush and your

summer look is complete!

• Bronze & Golden eyes

Bronze and golden tones look great on every eye color, and they compliment a summer tan, the best thing

about bronze and golden shaded eye shadows or even better for summer cream eye shadows is that they look

amazing on with bold and nude lips, which makes them easy to use and a dream to combine. Try them on

and combine them with a lip color of your choice and for a definite overall trendy and summary look pair

your warm golden makeup look with a white or nude outfit piece with turquoise accents,  a swell summar

overall look!

• A rosy peach inspired flush

There is something about a rosy and peachy colored blushes that add a subtle flush to the cheeks and makes

them look healthier and fresh, so this is the perfect time to put your pink and peachy blushes to good use,

from dusty roses, hot pinks to peachy sunset orange undertones to makes those cheeks pop and complete

the overall look and make you look healthy and well taken care of, apply them on the apples of your cheeks

and try to use cream based or liquid blushes with which many companies are coming out this season to prevent

a makeup meltdown as well as give you a healthy glow and a light weight layer above your foundation or tinted

balm to avoid over masking your face with makeup, which is a nightmare during high temperatures.
