When it’s hot outside, the last thing you want to do is put on a full face of makeup. But that doesn’t mean you have to skip wearing makeup altogether. With the right products, you can achieve an easy, fresh summer day look with just 8 products and no brushes. Here’s how!
Start with Skincare
Before applying any makeup, start off by taking care of your skin. Cleansing and moisturizing is essential for keeping your skin healthy and glowing in warm weather. Try using L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Derm Intensives Vitamin C as a serum before applying Supergoop! Glowscreen SPF 40 all over your face to protect from sun damage and add a subtle glow. Follow this up with Skin Food Original Ultra-Rich Cream on your lips for hydration, allowing it to soak in before you apply any lip color. This skincare routine will help give you a smooth canvas for your makeup application.

Plus it provides broad spectrum protection from UV rays and infrared radiation. Wear on its own, or layer under makeup as a glowy primer to give skin a naturally supple, lit-from-within look.

Conceal and Highlight
Once you have prepped your skin, use Clé De Peau Concealer SPF 27 to cover up any blemishes or dark circles underneath your eyes. Then grab the About Face Shadowstick in Pearly Pink Ice and apply it to your eyelids, or even down the bridge of your nose and along the cupid’s bow on top of your lips to add a subtle highlight. This will give you a natural glow without looking too shiny or greasy.

Then add some color to cheeks by using Armani Beauty Neo Nudes Liquid Blush in Color 50 which gives a beautiful sheer wash of color that looks natural under the summer sun. To finish off the look use a Brow Sculpting Pencil from Hourglass to define brows lightly if needed and Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner in warm berry pink for a subtle pop of color that won’t fade away in the heat when paired with lip balm or gloss on top (optional).
