Summer make-up lookPoletni make-up

It’s been very hot in the past few days here in Slovenia. Luckily I like summer and I don’t mind high temperatures. But refreshing rain showers (let’s say during the night) would be nice from time to time. As I said I don’t mind high temperatures, I just have to adjust to such conditions. One of the adjustments is make up. :cute: I know that a lot of girls/women/ladies don’t wear make up during the summer. I understand why (it’s hot and the make up melts), but I’m not one of them. I wear make up all year long. I like make up and I think a light touch of beauty products makes me look prettier and healthier. :silly: And with the right products make up doesn’t melt from my skin. Yes, I get greasy skin and my forehead is shiny. (Well, whose doesn’t in such hot weather?) But I don’t get upset about that. I just blot my forehead with a tissue and that’s it. Enough of babbling, here’s the summer make up look I wore yesterday.

I’ve been wearing variations of this look for the past few days. It’s very easy to do. You only need a few minutes to do it. And it’s still colorful.

How to do it?

What to do is writen in black. What I used and my comments are in grey.

• Prep your skin with a light foundation and concealer. I used IsaDora’s SunProtection Gel Bronzer in the photo above.
• Apply a light golden eyeshadow all over your eyelids. I used Manhattan’s Shampaign (from the Luxopolis LE) and Essence’s Mystic Lemon eyeshadows. You can put a primer underneath the eyeshadows. I didn’t use one.
• Apply a brown eyeliner on the top eyelid. I really like Manhattan’s waterproof dip eyeliner in Tenderbrown. It’s waterproof but it’s not smudge-proof.
• Apply a green eyeliner to the bottom eyelid. Apply it really close to the bottom lashes. I used Gosh’s Velvet Touch Eyeliner in Lemon Soda and Sephora’s Waterproof Jumbo Liner 12HR Wear in 10 Green. I love these pencils!!! So far I have two of them and I need more! I applied the same jumbo pencil on my waterline.
• Curl your lashes and apply your favourite mascara.
• Next on the list are the cheeks. Use whatever blush and/or bronzer you like. I’m wearing Sleek’s Rose Gold, Manhattan’s Mousse Rouge in Apricot and Barry M’s Rose blushes in the photo above. I love Sleek’s Rose Gold for the summer. It’s supposed to be an almost dupe for the Nars Orgasm blush. I have both and I’m telling you, they are close, but definitely not dupes. Rose Gold is more shimmery and it’s more pigmented, while Orgasm is its shy cousin. I’d say that Rose Gold is OK for summer. Because of the shimmer I’m not going to use it in the winter. Orgasm is nice for all year long. I’ll probably write a separate post on my favourite blushes and bronzers. I just need to find some time to do it. :hmm:
• The very last thing is lipstick. Although I’m not a pink person, I like nice fresh pink lips for the summer. For me it’s very hard to find a nice pink lipstick that looks really nice and pink on me. My latest addition to “my lipstick collection” is Lancome’s 342 Darling Rose from the Color Fever line. It was half off, that’s why I bought it and I really like it!

Here’s a photo of (almost) all the products. I forgot to include the Lancome lipstick.

That’s it! Really easy to do. I hope you liked it. Please let me know in the comments what is your go to make up for summer.

Zadnje čase je resnično vroče! K sreči imam rada poletje in me visoke temperature niti ne motijo. Priznam pa, da bi se osvežilni dežek prav prilegel (recimo čez noč in brez toče!!!) od časa do časa. Kot sem že napisala, me visoke temperature niti ne motijo, moram se samo prilagoditi. Ena od prilagoditev je tudi make up. :cute: Vem, da se veliko punc/žensk/dam poleti ne liči. Razumem zakaj (vročina in make up, ki se topi…), vendar nisem ena izmed njih. Ličim se celo leto. Make up mi je všeč in zdi se mi, da tudi poleti izgledam bolje in bolj zdravo, če nosim vsaj nekaj “barve” na obrazu. :silly: Seveda imam poleti bolj mastno koži in seveda se mi čez čas začne svetiti čelo. (Komu se pa ne?) Vendar se niti ne jezim zaradi tega. Pograbim papirnat robec in si popivnam čelo in to je to. Vse imamo iste težave. Ne se takšnim malenkostim pustiti, da vam pokvarijo trenutek. Ni vredno! :wink: Dovolj blebetanja, sledi fotografija MUja, ki sem ga nosila včeraj.

Variacije zgornjega MUja sem nosila preteklih nekaj dni in verjetno ga bom nosila tudi danes, jutri … Zelo enostaven in hiter make up, ki mi vzame le nekaj minut. Še zmeraj pa je barvit, kar mi je všeč (še posebej poleti).

Kako narediti zgornji poletni make up?

Kaj narediti je opisano s črno pisavo, s sivo pa so napisani izdelki, ki sem jih uporabila, in moji komentarji

• Pripravite kožo z lahko podlago in korektorjem. Na fotografiji zgoraj uporabljam IsaDora-in SunProtection Gel Bronzer.
• Nanesite svetlo zlato senčilo za oči čez celotno veko vse do obrvi. Jaz sem uporabila Manhattan-ovo Shampaign (iz Luxopolis LE) in Essence Mystic Lemon senčilo za oči. Lahko uporabite tudi podlago za senčila. Jaz je nisem.
• Nanesite rjav eyeliner na zgornjo veko. Všeč mi je Manhattan-ov waterproof dip eyeliner v odtenku Tenderbrown. Je vodoodporen, a ni odporen proti drgnjenju.
• Nanesite zelen eyeliner na spodnjo veko. Nanesite ga čisto blizu spodnjim trepalnicam. Uporabila sem Gosh’s Velvet Touch Eyeliner v odtenku Lemon Soda in Sephora’s Waterproof Jumbo Liner 12HR Wear v odtenku 10 Green. Obožujem te jumbo svinčnike!!! Zaenkrat imam dva, rabim jih še več! Isti jumbo svinčnik sem nanesla tudi na “waterline”.
• Uvihajte trepalnice in nanesite maskaro.
• Naslednje na seznamu so lička. Uporabite katerokoli rdečilo in/ali bronzer, ki vam je všeč. Jaz nosim Sleek-ov Rose Gold, Manhattan-ov Mousse Rouge v odtenku Apricot in Barry M-ov Rose rdečila. Za poletje mi je Sleek-ov Rose Gold zelo všeč. Pravijo, da naj bi bil (skoraj) dvojnik za Nars Orgasm, a če mene vprašate, ni. Sta morda bratranca, saj ima Rose gold precej več šimra in je bolj pigmentiran. Ravno zaradi šimra, se mi Rose Gold zdi primeren samo za poletje, medtem ko je njegov sramežljiv bratranec Orgasm primeren za celo leto. Verjetno bom napisala poseben prispevek o mojih najljubših rdečilih za lica in bronzerjih, moram samo še najti kaj časa. :hmm:
• Zadnja je na vrsti šminka. Čeprav resnično nisem ljubiteljica roza barve, so mi za poletje všeč sveže roza ustnice. Zame je kar težko najti lepo roza šminko, ki bi na meni dejansko izgledala lepo roza. Zadnja, ki sem jo kupila, je Lancome-ova 342 Darling Rose iz Color Fever linije. Bila je po polovični ceni, zato sem jo kupila. Ni mi žal, saj mi je barva res všeč.

Sledi fotografija (skoraj) vseh izdelkov. Pozabila sem vključiti Lancomovo šminko.

To je vse! Izredno enostaven make up. Nevpadljiv, a vseeno z nekaj barve za poživitev. Upam, da vam je všeč. V komentarjih pa mi zaupajte, kaj je vaš poletni make up.
