natural beach makeup

When you go to the beach, appropriate makeup can become a little confusing. Wearing no makeup can make us all feel a little insecure, but I know I definitely do not want to get fully made-up to lay in the sun! So, here are the steps to staying fabulous at the beach, without looking like you've tried too hard!

Step 1: Apply sun screen. I personally use SPF 50, but I do think SPF 30 or higher is fine!

Step 2: Apply a tinted moisturizer. Suggested- Laura Mercier (built-in SPF 20, I think)

Step 3: Lightly use concealer, if needed, to hide any other small imperfections

Step 4: Curl your lashes and apply brown mascara. Suggested- Benefit Bad Gal Lash in brown

Step 5: Apply a small amount of a cream-based, glowy pink blush. Suggested: Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush in Pink Frosting

Step 6: Apply a lip balm with SPF and a tinted gloss to go over it
