Each year, the warmer seasons tend to feature brighter colours. This season in particular is all about mixing pastels together. as well as wearing popping colours. I am sure that you (as me) are all excited about pairing coloured pieces together and wearing them out to feel great after a cold and dull winter. But with all the colour on our clothes, it is advisable to keep the makeup more natural. A lighter face will also mean higher comfort when the temperatures start raising, and will help us maintain a fresh and polished look without too much effort even during the hottest months. The following makeup look is both natural and light.
Products on my face.....
QV Moisturizing Day Cream with SPF 30
La Roche Posay Anthelios 50+ Sun Protection (for Sun Intolerant Skin)
Maybelline Affinitone Concealer
Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream with SPF 42 in shade 23 Natural Beige (a very light application)
Missha Golden Rose Blush in 208
3 shades of brown from my BC eyeshadow palette (a light brown on the entire lid, a medium brown on the crease and a dark brown to line my upper and lower lashes)
Deborah Milano Volume Mascara (a very light application on the upper lashes only)
QV lip Balm with SPF 30
This makeup looks also good when worn with glasses, especially if they are frameless like the one I am wearing below (which are by Moschino for those interested).
A quick review of Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream with SPF 42
The BB Cream is a great product for Spring and Summer because it gives you a very light coverage thus helping you achieve that natural makeup I have been talking about. At the same time it also gives you a light to medium coverage (which is buildable). It is therefore a great tool to obtain that flawless natural face we all dream to have. The best thing about the Missha BB Cream (as many others BB creams) is that it is light and has a high SPF which are both important during the warmer season. And this one is also cheap and it comes in about 6 shades. Plus, if you apply a light hand you are very likely to be able to use even darker shades. This is especially useful if you are very pale and want to give your face a slightly warmer appearance without getting the dirty clowny look which bronzer can sometimes give us (for all the pale women). For this exact reason I used shade 23 which is a natural beige (at least one shade darker than what I would normally use). It looked fine and just gave me that warm look to make me look alive. And I was able to skip my bronzer. The consistency of this BB cream is creamy, thus great for normal to dry skin but also for acne prone skin (as indicated on the package). It didn't cake and it didn't need powder on as it looked just a little dewy, exactly as I like my face to be. It stayed on for many hours although I had only applied a little bit where needed. If all of this is not enough for you, the M Perfect Cover BB Cream also claims to have whitening and anti wrinkle properties. So what else should we desire?.......May be an unscented version! Overall a great product which is also good value for money since it only costs 15 euros and it comes in a 50 ml tube.
STAY FAB.
