Every summer we love to look more beautiful, with a glowing and hydrated face and body. Golden and bronze shades, earthy tones and exotic scents are the musts of every summer. But, what about this summer’s beauty trends?

MAKE UP

URBAN DECAY Disco Queen Holographic Disco Highlighter Stick

 

 

For this summer’s makeup, you must be brave and get lost in the magic and mystery of makeup art. Colors are bright, exotic with an ultra-touch texture. The unicorn trend is still going strong, with a wide range of holographic makeup products. Loud and waterproof eyeliners promise to give a bold and bright look, even at the beach.

THE NATURAL GLOW

 

But, let’s not forget that the nude look is always in favor during the summertime – much like florals are for a spring wardrobe. Eyeshadows and lipsticks in such hues can offer a healthy, natural-looking bronzed glow for every skin tone. While talking about that glow, many beauty brands have created key face and body products this summer. Offering an iridescent, warm, eye-catching glow with hues of bronze, gold and rose gold, when applied to the skin.

SUMMER SCENTS

DIOR Escale à Portofino

 

 

 

 

Summertime prefers more sheer, and transparent scents. Colognes are back with a fresher spritz-weight for a lighter aroma and a longer lasting eau de parfum strength. Citrus based notes are a gentler and more elegant approach.

SUN PROTECTION

 

 

Of course, we should never forget to wear our sunscreen protection. Face and body sunscreen is always the big summer trend we should never neglect since it keeps us healthy and looking beautiful under the bright summer sun.
