Summer Makeup Trends

As we are diving into the sunny season, let's discuss the latest trends in summer makeup. Makeup, being a powerful tool for woman to express their beauty, is even more fun in summer with its vibrant colours and textures. This year's trends appear to be even more exciting as they bring in fresh and innovative approaches. Seasonal makeup has its unique place in our beauty routines and summer makeup is all about minimalism, freshness, and a touch of boldness. In this article, we will explore the beauty trends that are going to be prominent this summer.

Fresh Face With Dewy Finish

One of the major summer makeup trends this year is focused on making the skin look fresh and naturally dewy. After spending the last year inside, the 'less is more' approach has been embraced with minimalist makeup. This simplicity induces a look that is playful, yet sophisticated.

Achieving this dewy finish involves using lighter foundations or even switching to BB creams or tinted moisturizers. Moreover, a good quality face oil or even a touch of clear lipgloss can help achieve that fresh dewy look. Remember, the goal is not to look greasy, but to resemble a healthy, moisturized glow.

While using a light hand on concealer and sticking to solo highlights on the cheeks could do the trick, another popular way to complement the look is with a bright, even flashy, lip colour. Maintaining the balance between simple and bold, is the success of achieving this summer's fresh-faced look.

Bold Eyeliner

Bold eyeliners are another popular trend this summer. Instead of the typical black or brown liners, people are pivoting towards more vibrant colours. This, coupled with graphic eyeliner designs, gives that pop of colour and drama to the eyes.

Experimenting with styles and colours can bring fun to the whole makeup application process. From neon green to electric pink, there's no shortage of shades to choose from. Glitter liners could also be a great choice for those nighttime parties.

Regardless of your style, bold eyeliner is a trend that knows no boundaries. Whether applied as a thick wing or a unique graphic line, the goal is to make the eyes stand out. Remember that it's all about having fun and feeling beautiful, there is no right or wrong.

Sunscreen-Infused Makeup

The importance of good sun protection should not be overlooked during summer, and the makeup industry has quite smashed it by introducing sunscreen-infused products. It is a splendid way to marry beauty and skincare.

These products range from primers, foundations, to setting sprays, all aimed to offer varying levels of sun protection. While they should not replace your daily sunscreen, they are a great additional barrier and they help ensure your skin is protected.

While buying these products, make sure to check for 'broad spectrum' on the label to confirm they protect against both UVA and UVB rays. With so many options available, it's easy to incorporate sun protection into your summer makeup routine.

The 'No-Makeup' Makeup

This trend seems to be one that is carried throughout all seasons, but it resurfaces each summer with a stronger taking. The 'no-makeup' makeup look is about enhancing one's natural features with minimal makeup.

It involves properly moisturizing and prepping the skin, and then using a minimal amount of product to bring out the best features, while hiding some blemishes, not all. The end goal is to look effortlessly flawless, as though you are not wearing any makeup at all.

It goes hand in hand with the fresh-faced look where light coverage base products are used, paired with neutral eyeshadows, a sweep of mascara, and a touch of blush or bronzer for that sun-kissed glow. This look is easy, breezy, and perfect for summer.

Every change in season brings along a wave of new beauty trends, and this summer is no different. Whether you are a fan of the 'no-makeup' makeup look or prefer a bolder approach, there's a trend that will match your taste. What truly matters is that the makeup you wear makes you feel beautiful and confident. So, let's have some fun this summer with the latest makeup trends.
