Summer Break is around the corner, so we need to get ready in style! Here are the summer makeup essentials that you need to get ASAP!

 

Bright lipstick: I like my makeup nice and natural, but when it comes to summer, I like to jazz things up and add some flare to my makeup routine. Adding a nice bright pink lip to your jean shorts and tank will make your features stand out and will add a little pink twist to your makeup routine. My favourite bright pink lip is called “Hot Gossip” by M.A.C. It has a smooth creamy texture and is great if you want to add some pizazz to your look.

Sparkly eyeshadow: In the spirit of summer it would be fun to add some sparkle to your makeup look. Summer is about fun and adventure, so why not be adventurous in your eyeshadow too! I am loving the M.A.C eyeshadow in the shade “Last Dance”. It is a pinkish-gold shadow with a twist!

Waterproof mascara: When it is 30 degrees outside we do not want any of our makeup running. Waterproof mascara is key. Waterproof mascara will last all day and keep your eyes looking nice and fresh. Tarte has a great waterproof mascara that will do just that. 

Bronzer: During summer, I love to have a nice sun-kissed look, even though I can’t AT ALL! Bronzer is the perfect way to get that healthy sun-kissed glow. I love the Too Faced “Sun Bunny” bronzer, as it comes with two shades, great gold packaging and the bronzer has a cute and subtle shimmer to it.

Makeup remover wipes: Summer is time for travel and excitement, you don’t have time to do a three step cleansing routine. These Neutrogena makeup wipes will remove your makeup and clean your skin in a hurry!
