Beach Beauty 101
One of my favorite models is the sweet, Mari Alex. Ah! She has the perfect features! I love her “All American” very “Girl Next Door” look. Let me share with you what products we used to achieve the #PrettyGlamSummer makeover. Check out how I achieved the less is more look for our photo shoot on a beach in Texas. Deets down below…
Get This Summer Beauty Look
I started with Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen ($11) to protect and hydrate the skin. I love this product for its lightweight feel and the ability to absorb fast. Next, I covered the skin with Smashbox CC Cream in Light ($42).
It gave her just enough coverage for the look we are going for. I followed with a cream blush by Make Up For Ever in Peachy Pink ($26). I applied over the apples of the cheek, blending upwards and out towards the temples. It was the perfect color to create a slightly flushed appearance. Using a brush, I set the foundation with a small amount of Ben Nye Luxury Powder in Rose Petal ($12). Keeping it mostly in the t-zone area.
For the eyes, I placed MAC Eyeshadow in Soba ($16) in the crease, to give a natural golden-brown tone that brought out her eyes. I wanted to keep it minimal on the eyeliner as well, for this I used a gel liner by NARS in Black Valley ($25) using the tight-lining method. Eyelashes were then curled with my favorite eyelash curler by Shu Uemura ($24). I then applied two coats of Lights, Camera, Lashes by Tarte ($21). A mascara that lengthens, curls, adds volume and conditions. You can’t beat that!
I finished it all off with Capuchino Lipstick in Passion ($18), I wanted to create a “just-bitten” look. To give that effect, I tapped the color on her lips using my fingers. Just so it gave the lips a hint of color. We wanted her to look naturally beautiful for this shot and that she did.
