Summer Makeup Tips – Traditional and Permanent

MAKEUP TIPS FOR SUMMER

 Summer is full of pleasures and we can’t wait to enjoy the sunshine and time outdoors!   I’m sure it is only around the corner and very soon you can enjoy the warmth against your face – but be prepared for melting makeup, smudged brows for those that draw them on, sliding eyeliner and sticky lipstick.   Sorry I hope I haven’t spoilt your dream of a great looking good summer?  You can though do something about it. Read on…….

……..in hot weather, applying your makeup should be as simple and comfy as putting on your favourite pair of jeans and flip-flops, But the heat and humidity are a challenge, so you have to make a few little changes to your routine. The changes are very simple and here are a few but if you really want to have a smudge free none smeared look for Summer then permanent makeup is for you.

1. Primer. Yes the days have gone with caked matted primers.  The beauty market has a great selection of incredibly light primers to help your foundation stay on all day, even in high humidity.  My favourites are Clarins and Smashbox. Apply under foundations for a smooth beautiful finish that provides good coverage all day.
2. Lighten up your foundation texture there is no need for a heavy one in this heat.  Better still choose a tinted moisturiser   Apply a light dusting of power to ensure it lasts the day. I love the new mineral foundations that are around.  Jane Iredale and Fresh Minerals have a fabulous selection of colours and offer a summer natural look.
3. Bronzer apply over the forehead, cheek bones, chin and nose.  Bronzers help make your eyes look brighter and teeth whiter.  Choose one that matches your colouring that gives an authentic healthy glow to your skin.  Clarins duo, Gosh and Clinique have perfect choices for all.
4. For eyeliner that stays put is a difficult one.  There are many that promise but in reality they still slide down your face or disappear into a smudged pander look.  The ideal solution is to have permanent eyeliner applied.  You can choose from a subtle liner placed through the lashes to enhance your eyes.  And will not run or disappear by lunch time!  Alternatively choose a thicker eyeliner to accentuate and create that favourite almond eye look.
5. Eyebrows frame your face and give definition to all your features but if the eyebrow pencil or powder have disappeared with the humidity or occasional summer shower (hopefully not) or by wiping your forehead (as we do without knowing) then permanent eyebrows will offer a permanent solution staying put 24/7 for up to two years. Fantastic news for those with sparse or no brows.
6. Lips need to look good in summer. A heavy lipstick will disappear as soon as you put it on.  There are lip stains on the market but personally I do not like them.  Permanent lip blush will provide you with naturalness to your existing lip shape or add a very delicate lip line to create volume and a sexy pout. Wake up looking fantastic in the morning ready for the day ahead of summer socialising.

So there you have it traditional makeup and permanent makeup creating a beautiful face!

Tips for Great Eyes

Do you want stunning eyes?

I have some great tips on different eye shapes and how you can enhance your natural beauty, or book to see me for a free consultation on how your eyes can be permanently beautiful!

Close-Set Eyes

Line outer third of upper lids with grey, ,brown, or black liner. Smudge gently. Use a lighter liner on the inner eye to widen the space between eyes.

Small Eyes

Draw a dark line gradually thickening at outer edge of the eye. Use a light-coloured  pencil (gold, silver, white) and draw under lower lash.

Deep-Set Eyes

Line upper lash line with pale, shimmery liner. Then line outer edge of lower lash with a soft, neutral shade (gray or taupe). This will create the illusion of a less heavy lid.

Drooping Eyes

Line outer third of eye very close to lashes carefully sweeping the liner up at the corner of the eye.
