While most people have a simple, everyday makeup routine they routinely return to, there’s something inherently exciting about having an excuse to branch out and try something new. An upcoming vacation offers the perfect opportunity to experiment. If you’re lucky enough to have a tropical getaway on the horizon, we’ve found the perfect look that channels the ultimate resort vibes. Featuring bursts of color on the eyes and a statement lip, this tropical makeup is a must-try for the summer.
For sunkissed, summer-ready skin, start by mixing bronzer drops with your primer or moisturizer to give your complexion a sun-kissed glow. Next, apply your favorite foundation or tinted moisturizer, followed by concealer on areas needing extra coverage, including your eyelids to act as a primer. Lightly dust with setting powder to lock your base in place. Next, sculpt your face with bronzer, then finish with a pigmented blush on the apples of your cheeks for a fresh, radiant look.
Moving onto the eyes, apply a shimmery orange eyeshadow all over your lids, blending it up and into the crease with a fluffy brush. For a smoky effect, switch to a dark brown eyeshadow and apply it to the outer corners. Then, use a glittery dark purple eyeshadow along your lower lash line. For a glam, nighttime vibe, add a pair of wispy false lashes. Finally, line your lips with a dark brown lip liner before applying a tinted lip gloss.
The pops of color on the eyes, combined with the ultra-glossy lips, make this tropical makeup look incredibly flattering!
