Style Finder: Summer Makeup

07/20/2008
When I do my makeup in the summer I like to keep it really simple and light so it doesn't all melt off. I start with Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer because it helps my skin in the dry heat, and it protects it from the sun with spf 20. Then I warm things up with a little bronzer from Nars.

For my eyes I use Nars eyeshadow in the color "Lola Lola" and top off my lashes with Too Faced Lash Injection. It's my secret weapon!

My biggest secret? I like to use Blistex Fruit Smoothie chapstick. The flavor is great and my lips feel so soft.

I LOVE NARS Laguna bronzer too, it has just the right amount of bronze color to it.

In the summer I like to use a mattifying moisturizer so the humidity doesn't melt off my makeup. I use Cosmedicine Medi-Matte.


my LOVES...
- too faced lash injection also :*)
- cetaphil face wash
- laura mercier oil*free tinted moisturizer
- laura mecier bronzer
- mac studio fix foundation
- la roche-posay anthelios sx daily moisturizing cream with sunscreen
- Lash blast
- maybelline's great lash
- softlips
- skin white products (its an asian thing.lol)


Do you have any favorite blushes? You always have nice sculpted cheeks!

My summer favorites are:
- mac mineralized skinfinish
- benefit browzings
- bare escentuals buxom lipgloss
- vincent longo bronzer
- giorgio armani maestro mascara
- nars torrid blush


alba moisturizing lip balm
urban decay mineral cover up
neutrogena lip glaze


I love any Dior make-up.

MAC Tendertone Lip Balm SPF 12 in Sweet & Nice Flavor. It smells just like strawberries.


- Dior Black Out Mascara
- MAC Mineral powder
- MAC Blush in the shade "Dollymix"


I love all of your choices, especially Lash Injection! :)


Actually, I prefer BeneFit "You Rebel" tinted moisturizer and, for lashes, Maybelline "Great Lash Mascara." There's a reason it's the bestest-selling mascara of all time!

I use BeneFit's BeneTint on my lips with a little Smashbox lip gloss on top. On my cheeks I use Smashbox O-Glow -- it's this amazing goop that makes you blush your own natural color.

I also love love LOVE the Urban Decay mineral powder Karen recommended in the comments.


What foundation/under eye concealer do you wear? Your skin always looks perfect.


. philosophy's "hope in a jar" as a moisturizer.
. Dior "black ouut" mascara
. Mac's "pink swoon" blush
. Mac's eyeshadows (satin taupe, vanilla..)
. Mac's "viva glam V" lipgloss


Hey!!

I work ALLL summer long at an office building so I have no choice but to wear lots of make up during the summer :O It sucks but My fave make up products are:


1) Dream Matte Mousse - By Maybelline --It goes on super light!

2) Sephora Brand Blush Me! Trio -- It looks amazing.

5) Eyeliner - I use White and Black..White on the inside line to make your eyes pop..and then Black on the lash line -Top and Bottom.

4) Mascara..but I wear at least 3 Different kinds..1 that makes them Curl, 1 that makes them Longer, and 1 that makes them darker...I can't just chooose one :S lol


DO you go tanning? Or what do you think about it?


kiehls lip balm definitely


where do you buy that mascara?


i love that color of nars eyeshadow! i have it, use it a lot :)

i like rosebud salve in the original flavor (the pinkish one, in a navy/white tin). i use mostly as a lip balm for dry lips, but its good for dry skin, too, on the face or the hands (i've tried it, it works well). i swear by this stuff!
palmer's coco butter lip balm is awesome, too. its not sticky or too dry, and its SPF 15.

MAC eyeshadows in neutral pink and wedge are good for a subtle look in spring/summer. they're perfect for adding a matte finish on top of a shiny lid. they dont' show up dark or heavy either, unless you put a lot on, so yeah. perfecto.

<3


i use the same chapstick=0) its wonderful.


I love that chapstick! :)
I also love your blog. I found it through an internet article that said it wasn't fantastic because it didn't have enough dish on your co-stars. I think it's awesome, though. It has all of the things a blog is supposed to have (i.e. your songs, makeup, stuff about you). If they wanted something else they should have read a tabloid! ;)


the only things i use is
mac powder brozer, hard candy bronzer brush, or stella mccartney bronzer sometimes i use up to 2 so it makes my skin look darker
CG concealer
and I love urban decay eye shadow either gold or purple is good for me


ULTA stores carry too faced products!
