Celebrate Summer With A Fresh Face

June 8, 2018

Summer is fast approaching. And with the start of a new season, why not opt for a new seasonal makeup routine comprised of organic/natural makeup that gives your face that sun-kissed glow through the warm months? We decided to create one of our favorite looks and give you a detailed account of some of our favorite organic/natural makeup to achieve it.

Check out our step-by-step process below:

Step 1: Priming Your Face Let's start with some simple ways to care for your face before applying makeup. We started with a soft lip balm like the one from the organic Laino brand. Then we applied "Regard hypnotica" on the eye contour by massaging all around the bone and on the temples. This product has a creamy, velvety texture and leaves your skin feeling very pleasant.

Next, we used a great organic care brand Lavera to prepare the skin with a moisturizer that also protects against the elements. The Hydro Effect serum acts as the first barrier between the skin and external aggression.

And to finish off, we applied Polaar's eternal snow cream, with an incomparable airy texture that leaves your skin feeling light and fresh. Give some time for these products to penetrate into the skin and dry before applying makeup.

Step 2: Concealer

Next, we used the Lavera Natural Corrector that can be used on small pimples and on dark circles. It’s all-natural and lightweight on the skin.

Step 3: The Eyes

We chose Nyx's micro brow pencil to fill in the natural arch of the eyebrows giving it a full, beautiful look.

Next, we used the Lavera mono eyeshadow. We chose the Golden Copper color for a more naturally glowing look. To apply, simply brush the shadow over the eyelid with a fluffy brush. I also like to put the shadow on the outer corner of my lower lashes to add an extra glow to my eyes. It is a pretty shade with a pigment that holds well.

We then used the Lavera soft eyeliner to add a line above the lid. This soft eyeliner comes in four different colors and is made of natural products like jojoba, shea butter, vitamin e, vitamin c and sunflower oil. We used the black color for this look.We finished off with an organic black mascara from Avril brand. This mascara holds well over time and gives you a naturally beautiful finish. It also lengthens the lashes in the first layer and adds thickness when adding a second layer, giving you a perfect result.

Step 4: The Finishing Touches

Now that we finished the eyes, we used this sun powder from the NudebyNature brand to help us finish off our look. It’s not an organic brand but its products are filled with natural ingredients and devoid of synthetic products, silicone, talc or paraben. It’s a loose powder that must be applied with great care. I gently brushed it on my cheeks with a large brush. Careful not to add too much of this powder and be sure to blend it into your skin.

And we finished with the Lavera brand organic lipstick. I like the 36 Beloved Pink color. It is a nice pink that matches the season very well. Made with grapes, it has moisturizing power and also holds well throughout the day.
