I have to admit, about a year ago, I hated dewy or glowy makeup. I thought it made me look oily and sweaty, and just gross. Although, one year later, sitting writing this, my opinions have clearly changed dramatically changed. I LOVE glowy/dewy skin. The more highlight the better! I think it looks so healthy and youthful! I just needed to find the right products that work for me, and play around with different techniques to prevent me from looking oily in my t zone!
STEP ONE: PRIMER WITH SPF
SPF is obviously vital in the summer! I never go a day without wearing SPF, not even in the Winter! Bare Minerals BB Prime Time has a great SPF of 30. This will make your skin super smooth and prepped for makeup, but will also have a huge benefit on your skin in the long run too!
STEP TWO: BB CREAM OR TINTED MOISTURISER
This is the best thing to opt for in the summer time. The hot weather can cause our makeup to slip around and kind of slide of your face! I hate wearing heavy foundations, I feel like my skin can't breath! I love the Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue, it is light and super glowy, but is build ale so you can build the coverage that you want personally!
STEP THREE: LIGHTWEIGHT CONCEALER
Illuminating concealers like the YSL concealer pen or the Maybelline ones. These can be great to add a little more coverage under the eyes, but also add more luminosity to the areas that you want to create a more dewy effect! Just be careful not to apply this on blemishes!
STEP FOUR: CREAM/LIQUID BRONZER
I am obsessed with the liquid Hoola bronzer by Benefit. It is quick and easy and gives your skin such a natural and sunkissed glow without the shimmer! It's matte, so you can also double it up as a contour!
STEP FIVE: CREAM BLUSH
Cream or liquid blush is my favourite in the summer time! It melts into the skin and just looks so natural and glowy. It really does give a blushed from within appearance, without looking cakey or powdery! Right now, I'm loving the Topshop Cream Blushes!
STEP SIX: POWDER optional
If your oily like me, add a little bit of powder to the T Zone just to keep you from looking oily or greasy throughout the day!
STEP SEVEN: HIGHLIGHTER
A glowy skin makeup look would not be complete without highlighter! I'm in love with these *Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlights. They are gorgeous on the skin and give such an intense highlight, which I love! They don't sit like a powder on the skin, and are super glowy when the light hits you! They do have shimmer, but it's so flattering on the skin, and really give a polished and healthy look to any makeup look!
