Hello, beauty enthusiasts! Summer 2024 is just around the corner, and it’s time to refresh your makeup stash with the hottest trends of the season. From glowing skin to bold colors, this summer is all about embracing your natural beauty and adding a touch of fun to your look. Let’s dive into the must-have makeup trends that will have you shining all season long
1. **Glowing, Dewy Skin**
This summer, it’s all about that radiant, sun-kissed glow. Think fresh, dewy skin that looks effortlessly beautiful. To achieve this look, start with a hydrating primer and follow with a light, luminous foundation. Highlight your cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of your nose with a liquid highlighter for that perfect glow.
You can repurpose products to achieve the ultimate glow like using body shimmer as makeup. Whether its a liquid formula mixed in with your moisturizer, or a loose powder mixed into your powder products.
**Pro Tip**: Mix a few drops of liquid
highlighter with your foundation for an all-over radiant finish.
2. **Bright, Bold Eyes**
Say goodbye to neutrals and hello to vibrant, bold eyeshadows. Bright blues, electric yellows, and hot pinks are making a big statement this summer. Don’t be afraid to play with color and experiment with different shades. For a more daring look, try a neon eyeliner or a pop of color on the lower lash line.
**Pro Tip**: Use an eyeshadow primer to make those bold colors pop and last all day
3. **Glossy Lips**
Matte lips are taking a backseat this summer in favor of glossy, luscious lips. Whether you prefer a clear gloss or a tinted one, glossy lips add a youthful and fresh vibe to your look. Pair a sheer, glossy lip with your dewy skin for the ultimate summer glow.
**Pro Tip**: For a fuller lip effect, apply a bit of gloss to the center of your lips.
4. **Blush Draping**
Blush draping is making a comeback, and it’s perfect for adding a touch of color to your face. Instead of just applying blush to your cheeks, extend it up towards your temples for a more sculpted and lifted look. Choose coral, peach, or soft pink shades for a natural, flushed appearance.
**Pro Tip**: Use a cream blush for a more natural, dewy finish.
5. Fluffy Brows
Natural, fluffy brows are in! Put down the tweezers and let your brows grow out for a fuller, more natural look. Use a brow gel or a brow soap to brush them up and keep them in place. The key is to enhance your natural brows without overdoing it.
**Pro Tip**: Fill in any sparse areas with a brow pencil that matches your natural brow color.
6. **Pastel Nails**
Complete your summer look with pastel nails. Soft, pastel shades like lavender, mint, and baby blue are perfect for adding a touch of color to your nails without being too overpowering. These shades are not only trendy but also versatile enough to match any outfit.
**Pro Tip**: Try a pastel ombre effect for a fun twist on the classic pastel nail look.
Summer 2024 is all about embracing your natural beauty and adding a pop of color here and there. Whether you’re going for a glowing, dewy look or experimenting with bold eyeshadows, these trends are sure to keep you looking fresh and fabulous.
