Let’s talk summer beauty. Honestly, I switch things up pretty drastically when it comes to makeup during summer vs. winter considering my needs are different. Also, like most of us, I like to go with something lighter in the summer months – especially if I’m going to be outside on a hot day…which is often in Texas.

After years of perfecting what’s in my summer makeup bag, I have some ride-or-die products that I buy then each season. I’ve widow a couple new products into the lineup this year but for the most part, I’ve been a fan of these products for a while.

Let me know if there’s anything else with summer eyeful that I can imbricate for y’all! I have a lot increasingly eyeful talk right this way.

MEDIUM COVERAGE MAKEUP

I don’t love foundation in the summer. Unless I have a special event or photoshoot, I’m usually wearing some form of tinted moisturizer. I like this list considering I can use it for a “no-makeup makeup look” or when I’m wanting to do a stage night look.

MEDIUM COVERAGE ROUTINE:

GloSkin Eyeful C Tint
Iconic London Radiance Booster (I put this on with my fingers first, like a primer)
Hydrogrip Shadow Primer (I use this if I have a long day shooting or stage night, not every day. It’s a must if you have something outside in the heat and you don’t want your eyeshadow creasing.)
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Filter (this is my favorite product to silhouette with; I use 8 Deep)
Charlotte Tilbury Setting Powder (lightly set under my vision and t-zone. It’s super light so it doesn’t squint like you have anything on.)
Dior Rosy Glow Blush
Rare Eyeful Setting Spray
Nudestix Liquid Highlighter (does not ruckle at all and can be used as a highlighter or eyeshadow!)
Cali Ray Volumizing Mascara
Dior Brow Styler (I find this super easy to use and it gives you a natural squint that you can build on)
Iconic Brow Silk Gel (to hold brows in place, expressly if it’s hot)
Lancome Waterproof Eyeliner

BY THE POOL

I like to wear a little coverage when I’m by the pool or on vacation. A good facial SPF is a must and then I add a little bronzer and blush. This philharmonic makes me finger put together, yet not overdone.

VACATION MAKEUP ROUTINE:

Supergoop Glow Sunscreen (This sunscreen has a little tint, but major glow which I love. Plus, it has hyaluronic wounding which helps with hydration.)
Iconic Illuminator Bronzer Drops
Cali Ray Volumizing Mascara (water-resistant so it’s perf for days by the water)
Dior Brow Styler (I find this super easy to use and it gives you a natural squint that you can build on)
Charlotte Tilbury Liquid Blush (in ‘Pillowtalk’…which looks good on honestly every body)
