For some women, skipping
their beauty routine just because they are planning to lounge at the beach or
pool is not an option. Let’s face it:
there are some luxury retreats where slathering yourself in zinc and calling it
a day just won’t cut it. You may be on
vacation but there are still selfies to be taken and a certain glam factor to
be maintained. Can you imagine lounging
poolside at the Hotel du Cap, or strolling the ports of St. Tropez or Positano
with a bare face, shining from sunscreen, looking more like you are at summer
camp than on a luxurious getaway? I
didn’t think so.
Summer glam beauty doesn’t
need to be time-consuming or glaringly gauche if you focus on just one feature
and keep your hair off your face so it doesn’t compete for attention. Start with a hydrating serum (try La Mer The Revitalizing Hydrating Serum) to amp up the glow. Look for a moisturizer with antioxidants to
protect the skin from damage or drying out in the sun. (try Fresh Cosmetics Lotus Youth Preserve Face Cream with Super 7 Complex). Follow up with a tinted CC cream with SPF
that evens out the over all skin-tone without a full coverage look (try IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50+). Brush your brows and use a waxy pencil to
fill in bare spots and set with a clear gel.
You want your brows to be groomed but not made up or exaggerated (try
Nudestix Eyebrow Stylus Pencil and Gel set).
A soft pastel metallic eye
with a touch of gold reflects the light making your eyes pop rather than
receding with darker shadows or contouring, for a dramatic but understated eye
(try Makeup Forever Artist Shadow Eyeshadow in Nile Green Satin, and Golden Beige),
Don’t forget your oversized
sunhat and statement shades – after all you will love taking them off for a big
reveal.
