Summer Glow Makeup Tutorial


With Summer fast approaching and the temperature continues rise, we thought it would be a great time to show all you lovely ladies out there how to get that beautiful summer glow when you do your makeup.

Summer days can be hot and sweaty so the best look tends to be more neutral eyes with your beautiful, dewy skin as the main focus. This is a great everyday makeup look that shouldn't take you very long to accomplish. A throw on and go look perfect for busy women with hectic schedules and not a lot of extra time to spend on makeup.

The best part of this look is the fact that it is quick and easy but looks super chic and put together. Also, once you have the basic skin part down you can play with your eyes and lips and add more drama for nighttime events, weddings, or any other event that you want a little extra oomph factor.

Lets get started!

1. Start with clean and moisturized skin. If I am not washing my face before I always at least splash water on and pat dry. I also like to add some moisturizer and sunscreen, or better yet a sunscreen with moisturizer like the Face Reality Moisturizing Sunscreen SPF 30. Finally for the base layer add the PRIIA acne safe primer. Remember, a little goes a long way with this super silky primer, a pea sized amount should do. The primer will help your makeup go on smoother, last longer, blur fine lines and imperfections, and really help give us that dewy finish we desire.

2. Use your PRIIA creme foundation stick and apply your foundation over the primer. You can use the PRIIA powder as well, either will work. Make sure your foundation is blended into the skin well. Add some blush to the apples of the cheeks for a pop of color and a natural looking summer flush.

3. Sweep on the PRIIA Satin Complexion Enhancer, I love the color of Angelic. I use this as my highlighter which helps make our dewy, glowing complexion really pop. Sweep upwards from the cheek bone into the temple, then sweep just above the brow bone, Add a little dab to the cupids bow of the top lip and you can do a little down the bridge of the nose as well.

4. For eyes we are going to keep it simple, this will help keep the focus on the beautiful summer glow complexion we are putting together. If you have light or sparse brows I suggest using the Blinc eyebrow mouse. It is super simple, you just brush it on and it gives your brows the definition you want. For eye-shadow, I love the Blinc Shadow Fusion palette. Use a light colored or neutral eye-shadow like Hyaline for the lid, then use a slightly darker color like Moonstone for the crease and blend together. Place the darkest of the 3 colors, SIenna, in the outer corner and blend up and outwards creating a neutral smokey eye look. Use Citrine to highlight the brow bone, this will make your brows stand out even more.

5. Finally sweep on some Blinc Mascara on the upper and lower lashes, add a touch of lip gloss or lip balm and you are ready to glow!

Here are some pictures I took of myself with the completed summer glow look. I changed up my eye-shadow and liner for a more dramatic look ,but the Blinc brow mousse looked amazing along with the PRIIA foundation, blush, and the satin complexion enhancer.
