A few simple steps and you are completely summer ready.
A new season calls for changes in your beauty routine. Because the weather is getting nicer, you can leave out certain things and add other products. We share our most important tips.
1. Use an SPF
We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to protect your face with sunscreen every day. The sun is harmful to your skin and that is why it needs protection. So apply a high factor to your face every day and your skin will thank you (plus it will save you some wrinkles later).
2. Swap your foundation for a BB cream
When the sun is shining there is no need to wear a full-coverage foundation; go for a BB cream instead. It evens out your skin, but with lighter coverage. This way you create a lighter look.
3. Use a primer
If you still want to wear foundation, for example if you have a party planned, make sure you use a primer. The primer ensures that your foundation stays in place better and does not ‘melt’ off your skin in warm temperatures.
4. Use a bronzer
Bronzer is allowed again! Bronzer can easily be too noticeable on your winter skin, but in the summer it can provide a beautiful glow on your face. Gently apply bronzer to areas where your face catches sunlight, such as your cheekbones and high parts of your forehead.
5. Keep it simple
Flawless skin is actually sufficient for a beautiful make-up look in the summer. It is therefore often nice to keep the rest of your makeup simple, for example with only eye shadow and eyeliner. A gentle color on the eyes with a little mascara is enough.
6. Protect your lips
If you’re going to be in the sun, don’t forget to protect your lips with factor. There are special lip balms available for this purpose.
7. Use a setting spray
An extra tip: use a setting spray after applying your makeup. This ensures that all make-up stays in place all day long and makes your skin glow.
