It’s gonna be hot out there, y’all!

Summer is the perfect excuse to streamline your beauty routine, so swap out foundation and sultry shadows for a cute cat eye, glam shades, and a bright lip for an effortless sunny look!

BEAUTY TOOLS

  • A nude lip liner— we used Model Co Lip Enhancer Illusion Lip Liner.
  • A bright and cheerful lipstick— we used Nicka K New York Hydro Lipstick in “Daring” because red lips are classic, uber feminine, and chic in any season.

STEPS

  1. After wiping off any lip balm, outline your lips by firmly rubbing the pencil in a back and forth motion around your cupid’s bow (the dip at center of your top lip), and slowly make your way around.
  2. Fill in your lips entirely— it will make the lipstick easier to apply and last longer.
  3. Swipe on color, blot, and repeat!

P.S. The key to a perfectly lacquered lip is a good canvas! Always exfoliate and moisturize before applying lipstick— gently scrub lips with a tooth brush, apply lip balm, and give it a few minutes to soak in!
