Sunny Face!

Just coming back from a vacation, I was inspired to do a simple sun kissed look.

To start off, I used concealer and a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation. Tinted moisturizers are great because they are very light weight, and give a more natural look.

After my base I used xpert glow to give my cheeks and nose a glowing look. Use bronzer where the sun would naturally hit. Only go a shade or two darker than your natural skin tone and use something with a slight –slight being the key word here—shimmer to catch the light.

For my eyes I used a matte shadow in a light brown that almost matches my skin tone (we want the look natural, so keep the shadow natural). You need to use a matte shadow because you’ve already used a shimmer on the cheeks. Keep everything else really natural on the eyes. I would probably go pretty light on liner. If you do use one, you should probably pick a brown one with a very slight gold shimmer.

On the lips apply a little gold lipstick (or gloss if you prefer). Not too much, just enough to highlight the look and top off that sunny glow.

A great daytime look that’s simple and natural. Light up the room with your Sunny Face!
