Natural Beauty

By Lana Belton • Jul 15th, 2009 • Category: Trends

When summer temperatures rise to sweltering levels, the clothes on your back are torture enough. The last thing a girl wants to worry about is her mask of makeup melting off in the July sun. If there is a time to go make-up free, summer is definitely it, but if you don’t have the guts to leave the house without a stitch of product, you can still look like a natural beauty.

Though this trend is perfect for the summer months, it’s sure to carry on into fall; 3.1 Phillip Lim, Calvin Klein, and Donna Karan were among the many shows featuring nude and natural make-up. Not only does this look allow your natural beauty to shine through, it lets a dramatic outfit take centre stage without seeming too over-the-top.

Some great products favored by the pros include: the MAC “Myth” lipstick, NARS “Orgasm” blush, and MAC eye shadow in “Shroom.”
