My Summer Makeup Routine - Review

(Image: mcollectiveblog)

So it's Summer in Dubai. The heat is rising and the makeup is melting lol. It is so unimaginably hot!! I always change my makeup routine when it comes to Summer because it's a whole different story when it comes to skin and makeup. That's why I decided to share it with you guys and get your feedback and maybe you can tell me what your routine is. Here is what I do:

Face 

1- I first wash my face with cold water and pat it dry. ( shrinks pores ) 

2- Then I start with my face moisturizer. ( I use gel - I will add a post about it later )

3- I use a concealer under my eyes, nose area, and mouth. ( I DON'T use foundation in summer )

4- I apply a minerals face powder. ( It's usually a bronze color )

5- I contour.

6- Apply a peachy/rosy blush color.

Eyes 

1- I always start by defining my brows.

2- I apply a medium brown color to my crease.

3- I apply eye liner to my water line and on my lids.

4- I apply mascara. ( since my eye makeup is light I make sure I apply as much mascara to achieve a dramatic look )

Lips

1- I always scrub my lips. ( Mix brown sugar and honey )

2- Apply a soft brown lip liner.

3- Apply soft peachy/nude colors. ( In some occasions I use plum color, it looks good on tan skin )

*in case you guys are wondering about what makeup products I use, I will add separate posts about them soon.
