The power of makeup happens when we are able to be ourselves, when we let our natural features breath, giving voice to parts of ourselves and enlightening what we like about us. Although the culture of a makeup that “covers” is always going strong in our society (and we do love its great artistic side — in fact, it’s nice to have fun and play with makeup), sometimes it’s also nice to get in touch with yourself, with those characteristics that make us unique and inimitable.
It’s all about a breathing skin, an eye look that is not defined, or wonderful freckles that cover our face: we celebrate our skin, we celebrate our nature.
And it is precisely in the summertime that we feel even more strongly the beauty of loving our skin and our being natural! We have chosen to show you a simple look, done with products of the highest quality and that are actually good for your skin, that are multitasking and that can become the perfect beauty travel bag for your holidays, wherever you will be.

THE BASE
____________________
After thoroughly moisturizing the skin with a gel-based cream (the Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream by La Mer), to not make the texture of the skin heavier, we apply the Reparative Skin Tint by La Mer with SPF 30. More than a foundation, it is a light color that works in perfecting the complexion, but not hiding it. The skin is immersed in the energies of the powerful ferments of marine origin that make the skin look uniform and smooth while reducing imperfections, wrinkles, and lines of expression. So, besides being a wonderful product for the summer, given its lightness, it is also an amazing skincare product.

THE CHEEKS AND LIPS
____________________
Speaking of multitasking, you can’t fail using the famous multi sticks that act both as a blush and a light veil of lipstick. In this case, we have applied a mix of the two shades, the peach, and the pink ones, of the Lip and Cheek Glow. A veil of color but, above all, of hydration that manages to give the skin that natural and typical glow of a complexion that shines under the sun.
A veil of the pink stick was then applied to the lips, to emphasize its natural pigment.

BRONZER
____________________
To emphasize a slightly tanned complexion, we applied the Bronzing Powder, which is composed of a warm terracotta bronzer and also has two waves of bright gold and pink. With a brush, we mixed all the shades and we sprinkled them on the forehead, cheekbones and décolleté.

EYES
____________________
To give a bright touch to the eyes, we wanted to use the golden part of the Bronzing Powder, applying it on the entire eyelid. The look is not defined but is full of brightness.
A pinch of color, the right glow and being yourself. These are the must-have items to pack for the summer.
