Summer is the time to give your body the healthy tan and protect it from the horrors of sunburn, baked and dry lips and even sun-scorched skin cancer! There are some makeup disasters that can happen in summer sun and a relaxing beach noon that we do not pay adequate attention too. Here we are going to discuss them along with some other tips to keep you pretty like sunshine:
Avoid lip liner.
Colors such as golden-green or mango green for eyes can be used along with black or brown mascara.
Dewy face with the lightest veil of translucent powder is the right summer look.
Dry hair frizz a lot as humidity increases and make curly hair unmanageable. Rich deep conditioning of your hair will help to tame your hair and don’t forget to protect them from sun, sand and wind by wearing a trendy summer hat or a baseball cap. Wax and texturizers also help to tame frizzy hair.
Gold shimmer under brows or across cheekbones can be a luxury you can use.
In case, you haven’t taken the precaution already and the damage is already done, use a foundation with the shade of your tanned skin to cover the area under your eyes and blend it well with the rest of the face. Then use nude or light brown eye shadow to give them a natural look.
Light shade of bronzer on cheekbones and chin gives you a beautiful suntan.
Sprinkle your feet with foot powder before wearing sandals to avoid any blisters. If you still feel shoe-on-skin rubbing, protect the sensitive area with a bandage before the blister forms. To get rid of the blister, take a clean needle and sanitize it with alcohol. Pop the blister and use cotton to clean any fluid that comes out of it. Apply an antibiotic ointment without trying to scrape off the skin and then cover the area with a bandage.
Sunglasses protect your eyes but do not stop the sun from tanning the rest of your face, resulting in eyes with paler skin around it than the rest of the face. To avoid this, generously rub sunscreen with SPF 30 with a broad spectrum over your entire face and body every two hours.
The only thing you can do to get rid of this yellowish tint is to scrape the surface of your nail with the help of the finest-grain side of the block file and use the clear UV-resistant topcoat for protection and shine.
The sheer pastel, beige and pink nail polish acquires a yellowish tint after being exposed to sun for two days or more. To avoid this, use a clear nail gloss with inbuilt UV protection topcoat and do not forget to rub sunscreen on nails too after every two hours, just like the rest of your body.
Use eyeliner pencil of slate gray, warm chocolate or navy shades with a light hand.
Use gel on your hair and use only the fresh razor with triple blades to shave bikini line to avoid any unsightly rashes. You can use 1% hydrocortisone cream to any rash to cure it and hide any redness in the area by using tinted facial moisturizer.
Warm blond and naturally medium brown hair with highlights may acquire coppery shades in sun due to oxidation. Thus, always wear a hat or scarf while venturing outdoors. Hair color gloss can help you to achieve the shine again.
Warm, sunny, bright blush can be used.
Wear only natural nude shades as lip colors while going out to the beach. If you cannot resist the temptation of using liquid lipstick while on the honeymoon in a tropical island, keep it inside the cooler for your soda or carry it in a pot or tube with a wand. If your bullet is going soft, try to cool it a little by placing it in a fridge or near an air conditioner.

We all have days when we just can’t fall asleep for different reasons. Whether it’s cause you had an argument with someone you care for or you have problems at school or at work one thing happens the same for everyone in the morning. The fact that our body and mind didn’t get the much needed rest shows on the outside of the body as well. You will have red eyes, dark circles and a paler complexion.

In order to make yourself appear like you had a good night sleep you need to know what to do and how to hide the sleepless night effects over the skin. You will need to calm down and start pampering yourself.

Begin by washing your face with cold water in order to refresh the face. The cold water will cause a better blood circulation. Use a facial scrub to remove all the dead skin cells that had built up during the night and can leave the skin looking dull.

Moisturize your face so it won’t feel too tight. Moisturizer will also help the skin regain it’s vitality

Apply a cold patch of ice or some cold cucumbers to get rid of the eye puffiness because cold and cucumber act as a astringent. The cold will make the fluid retained under the eyes to be absorbed, but this is only a short time relieve.

Apply some eye drops to eliminate some of the redness of the eyes.

Apply concealer under your eyes to hide the dark circles. The concealer will blur the the dark circles under the eyes making them similar to the rest of the skin.
Apply Foundation lightly. You want to get coverage and a flawless complexion. If you add too much you will draw too much attention towards your face.

Curl your eyelashes, apply mascara and lip gloss to your lips as finishing touches.

You will now look like you have had a very good night of sleep.

Makeup Application for Holiday Makeup Look

It is important to start this look with foundation and concealer to create a flawless complexion. Remember to set the foundation and concealer with a light dusting of loose powder so that the base will help keep makeup on longer.

1. Start by applying the brown eye shadow to the upper lash line along the eyelid and blend into the crease below the brow bone.
2. Next apply the pink shimmer eye shadow to the top inner corner of the eyelid and blend with the brown eye shadow. The pink shimmer eye shadow will also be applied on the brow bone and to the inner corner of the bottom lashes.
3. Line the top lashes with the metallic bronze eyeliner, try to get as close to the lashes as possible. Line the bottom lashes as well but with a soft hand and blend with an eyeliner brush or a cotton swab.
4. With the black mascara, start by applying to the base of the lashes and wiggle the brush back and forth. This step will help add volume to the lashes. Then apply a second coat of mascara by holding the brush vertically and pulling the lashes out. This step helps add length to the lashes.
5. Apply the berry cheek color to the cheekbones. Start by applying a small amount and add another light layer if needed. It is better to start out light and add more than to have to try and remove too much blush.
6. Complete this look with the deep berry lipstick.

With the lips being the focus of this holiday look for African American skin it is important to bring along the lipstick for touch ups. Without it, the look will not be complete.
