The trick to achieving this warm summer fusion is to keep the colors on the eyes, lip and cheek in the same tonal family. Especially matching the warm tone on the cheek with the lip.

1. Create a clean even skin tone with Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation and set with the Select Sheer Pressed Powder on a large powder brush.

2. For a soft warm coral on the cheek apply Powder Blush in the color, Style. Dust on the cheek, back to the ear.

3. Highlight the eye with Metal X Cream Eyeshadow in the color,Fusion Gold. Apply this to the inside corner and under the brow.

Apply the Eyeshadow color, Motif across the eyelid and blend into the crease. For added pigment dab the color onto the lid. Also apply this under the eye starting at the outer corner with a fine brush.

4. Line the top lash line with Technakoh Liner in the color Photogravure. This pencil is soft so it can be blended and smudged.

 

Finish the eye with Black Studio Fix Lash Mascara.

5. Create a clean lip line with Cream Stick Liner in the neutral color, Summerfruit and top with Tinted Lipglass color, Check This Out.

Perfect Primers for Summer from Tarte & Smashbox!

I don't wear face primer every single day, but when I want my skin to appear absolutley flawless, say for a night out or when I know I'm going to be in front of the camera, I make sure an excellent primer goes on first. 

One of my new favorites is Clean Slate Poreless 12 Hour Perfecting Primer by Tarte.  It's silky smooth texture goes on perfectly even and light.  Not only does Clean Slate Poreless keep your makeup in place for a full 12 hours, but it also refines the appearance of pores and diffuses fine lines and imperfections while delivering natural fruit and plant derived extracts to deliver anti-aging and skin resorative benefits to your skin. 

Another new favorite face primer of mine is Photo Finish Luminizing Oil-Free Foundation Primer by one of my all time favorite brands, Smashbox.  This long-awaited addition to the legendary collection of Photo Finish primers adds just the right amount of luminosity.  With age fighting antioxidents such as green tea grape seed extract and Vitamins A, C and E, this oil free, smooth primer effortlessly fills lines and pores while extending the life of your foundation.

I used the Photo Finish Luminizing Foundation Primer alone, sans foundation when I ran out for some quick errands and the coverage was perfect over my SPF 30 moisturizer.

Both amazing primers can be found at Ulta, Sephora and other specialty stores near you!

Another must-have Matrix product from the Total Results line, is Sleek Silk Wonder Smoothing Oil with non-stop frizz fighting power!  Sleek Silk Wonder instantly restores shine and silkiness with concentrated olive oil that smooths and controls frizz with all day humidity resistance.  Used on wet or dry hair, this shea butter formula proides long lasting conditioning while smoothing hair folicles.  I added just about a dime sized dollop to my thick hair just on the ends after blow-drying and my hair was noticiably less frizzy instantly and lasted throughout the day!
