Let’s start with the base. In the summertime it is always best to go for light coverage foundation or you can even skip it and use concealers where needed and blend out the rest. The key is to show off your complexion and target coverage only where needed. Using a sheer or radiance-boosting foundation formula will allow your skin to shine through. After all fresh skin is ‘always’ in.

Go all the way
Let’s start with the base. It is always better to go for a light coverage foundation in summer season or you can skip it and use concealer where needed and blend the rest. The key is to reveal your complexion and target coverage where needed. Using a sheer or radiance-enhancing foundation formula will make your skin glow. After all fresh skin is ‘always’ inside.
Light skin
Obsessed with highlighter? Well this season is all about keeping your skin dewy, which means you can’t go overboard with the highlighter. Unlike harsh contouring, highlighting emphasizes the points on your face where the light hits. Just a touch on your cupid’s bow, cheekbones and browbones will make your skin look naturally beautiful.
Add a pop of color.
The standout makeup trend of summer 2019 is definitely the colorful eyeshadow. Be it colored eyelashes or a swipe of vibrant eyeliner; Adding a pop of color to your eyes will definitely make you stand out.
Whether you want to apply false mascara or a glossy mascara, this is a fantastic look for someone who wants to do something different but not over the top. Trade in your boring black mascara for royal blue, emerald green, or purple mascara. If you’re daring to pull off neon, then opt for neon pink or yellow.
As for the eyeliner, you can go as bold as you want. Wear your favorite colors like red, electric blue or neon green to make your eyes pop.
Fluttering litter
Whether it’s falsies or several layers of dramatic mascara, winged lashes are all the rage this season. Want to get long eyelashes? All you have to do is use the eyelash curler on each eye for at least 15 seconds. Apply black mascara in zigzag strokes and voila you’re all set to go. For a more dramatic effect you can use some false eyelashes.
Monochromatic form
Monochrome makeup is one of the hottest trends this season and it looks like it’s here to stay. Opt for a sunny, orange hue this Eid. Think terracotta. This tone-on-tone makeup is actually wearable and quite easy as you can get the look you want with just one product. What you need to do: Use the same color on the lips, blusher and eyeshadow – all from the same color palette. If you want to experiment with brighter tones, you can go for all pink or lilac.
The classic ponytail
This hairstyle, if styled in a fashionable way, looks absolutely stunning. As the hot weather continues this Eid, it’s best if you go for a sleek ponytail – most preferably low – with a center parting. After securing your pony with a rubber band, don’t forget to pull the hair over the elastic to soften the style and give it a sleek silhouette.
The ripple effect
Besides ponytails, top knots and braids are quite popular. Opt for face-framing braids this Eid – if you have long hair, add a braid-to-tail to your wavy hairstyle. You can also wear your hair in an ultra high swishy braided pony.
Plan to go for a simple, no-fuss plate then add some oomph by using it with pearl or flower clips, statement pins or real flowers.
