Makeup Tips For Summer &
Winter
|
|
Summer is the time to give
your body the healthy tan and protect it from the horrors of sunburn,
baked and dry lips and even sun-scorched skin cancer! There are some
makeup disasters that can happen in summer sun and a relaxing beach
noon that we do not pay adequate attention too. Here we are going to
discuss them along with some other tips to keep you pretty like
sunshine: |
|
|
|
-
Colors such as
golden-green or mango green for eyes can be used along with black or
brown mascara.
-
Dewy face with the
lightest veil of translucent powder is the right summer look.
-
Dry hair frizz a lot
as humidity increases and make curly hair unmanageable. Rich deep
conditioning of your hair will help to tame your hair and don't forget
to protect them from sun, sand and wind by wearing a trendy summer hat
or a baseball cap. Wax and texturizers also help to tame frizzy hair.
-
Gold shimmer under
brows or across cheekbones can be a luxury you can use.
-
In case, you haven't
taken the precaution already and the damage is already done, use a
foundation with the shade of your tanned skin to cover the area under
your eyes and blend it well with the rest of the face. Then use nude
or light brown eye shadow to give them a natural look.
-
Light shade of bronzer
on cheekbones and chin gives you a beautiful suntan.
-
Sprinkle your feet
with foot powder before wearing sandals to avoid any blisters. If you
still feel shoe-on-skin rubbing, protect the sensitive area with a
bandage before the blister forms. To get
rid of the blister, take a clean needle and sanitize it with alcohol.
Pop the blister and use cotton to clean any fluid that comes out of it.
Apply an antibiotic ointment without trying to scrape off the skin and
then cover the area with a bandage.
-
Sunglasses protect
your eyes but do not stop the sun from tanning the rest of your face,
resulting in eyes with paler skin around it than the rest of the face.
To avoid this, generously rub sunscreen with SPF 30 with a broad
spectrum over your entire face and body every two hours.
-
The only thing you can
do to get rid of this yellowish tint is to scrape the surface of your
nail with the help of the finest-grain side of the block file and use
the clear UV-resistant topcoat for protection and shine.
-
The sheer pastel,
beige and pink nail polish acquires a yellowish tint after being
exposed to sun for two days or more. To avoid this, use a clear nail
gloss with inbuilt UV protection topcoat and do not forget to rub
sunscreen on nails too after every two hours, just like the rest of
your body.
-
Use eyeliner pencil of
slate gray, warm chocolate or navy shades with a light hand.
-
Use gel on your hair
and use only the fresh razor with triple blades to shave bikini line
to avoid any unsightly rashes. You can use 1% hydrocortisone cream to
any rash to cure it and hide any redness in the area by using tinted
facial moisturizer.
-
Warm blond and
naturally medium brown hair with highlights may acquire coppery shades
in sun due to oxidation. Thus, always wear a hat or scarf while
venturing outdoors. Hair color gloss can help you to achieve the shine
again.
-
Warm, sunny, bright
blush can be used.
-
Wear only natural nude
shades as lip colors while going out to the beach. If you cannot
resist the temptation of using liquid lipstick while on the honeymoon
in a tropical island, keep it inside the cooler for your soda or carry
it in a pot or tube with a wand. If your bullet is going soft, try to
cool it a little by placing it in a fridge or near an air conditioner.

Makeup in
Winter
|
|
There are so many people who dread winter for the
mere reason that it brings a challenge to maintaining healthy and
well-moisturizer skin. Extra care and attention is needed during the
winter season, because during the cold months, the oil glands
situated just below the surface of the skin tend to become
relatively inactive and produce less moisture than usual. The wind
and cold conditions that it brings along only adds to the dryness.
With the onset of winters, your makeup also needs to go major
change.
Velvety shades are the way to go for a winter woman. You need to
look more glamorous and more polished during the cold months of the
year. The matte look and understated shades, such as coffee,
chocolate and smoky shades for eyes and berry tones for lips and
cheeks, replace the fresh summer face. Gloss is in vogue again and
so are our beloved fruity and spicy tones of cosmetics. In case you
want to explore more about make up in winters, make use of the tips
given in the following lines. |
Makeup Tips For Winters
|
-
Use blackberry and
copper color polish to darken your nails. It is perfect for the
season and looks best on short, just-to-your-fingertips nails.
-
Try colored
mascara like navy, burgundy, and auburn that gives lashes a subtle
color and some depth as well, without looking too obvious.
-
Winters calls for
more defined eyes. So, you should use a chocolate brown or
charcoal liner along your upper lashes.
-
It is a good idea
to opt for neutral shades of makeup, such as light browns, grays,
pinks and purples.
-
If you want to
draw attention to only one area of your face during winter, it is
best to put emphasis on your eyes. A smoky eye look will work well
during this time of year.
-
Keep your lips
moisturized in order to prevent them from becoming cracked and
dry. It is a good idea to apply a lip-gloss throughout the day.
-
A bit of sheen on
eyes can be used too for a change, especially if you are using
nude shades on your lips.
-
Either your
moisturizer or your foundation should have broad-spectrum sun
protection.
-
A light, matt
foundation as well as a tinted powder, with a slight shimmer, look
great in winters.
-
For fragrance, it
is best to stick to essence of essential oils, spices and other
natural aromas.
-
Smokey eyes look
best in winters. For sultry effect, you can use eye shadows in
cinnamon and coffee shades.
-
A sheer layer of
creamy blush-on can boost up the subtle makeup look that you adopt
in winters.
-
Tinted lip balms,
in honey, blackberry and red currant tones, look great in the
winter season.
