Summer is finally here, and we’ve all been looking forward to the sun, sea and bronzed skin that comes with it. For those who wish to change their looks with the seasons, Glo has some fantastic summer looks for your clients to try out.
Preparing the skin is important, especially in the summer climate when skin needs some extra care.
Cleansing
Before applying makeup to the face, begin with the cleansing process with our daily polishing cleanser. It’s easy to use—simply tap the powder out into your hand and add water, rubbing until it foams up. Then use it as you would a normal cleanser. This cleans pores of any dead skin prior to makeup application. Our daily polishing cleanser is travel-friendly and suitable for all skin types.
Moisturising
We recommend two products for the moisturising process. Firstly, the Oil Free Sunscreen with SPF 40, perfect for moisturising the skin as well as offering sun protection from both UVA and UVB rays.
We also recommend Balancing Moisture Remedy, which offers exceptional moisturisation, hydrating the skin thoroughly, for those that aren’t going to be in the sun, but need to hydrate following a long day in the sun. Balancing Moisture Remedy is suitable for all skin types.
Prepare the base
After the skin is prepped, before moving onto the summer makeup looks, apply the base. Begin by applying primer to allow for easy application of subsequent products.
We suggest our natural Tinted Primer, which has an SPF of 30 and is the perfect primer suitable for acne-prone skin.
Next, apply foundation. Our pressed base mineral powder foundation is non-comedogenic so is ideal for those with sensitive skin, rosacea, or acne-prone skin.It is also ideal for oily skin and is rich in minerals and free of talc and harmful parabens.
For those who need more from their foundation, try Satin Cream Foundation. It contains a blend of antioxidant and vitamins A, C, and E as well as green tea extract, to help nourish the skin.
Conceal
Lastly, apply concealer; either Oil Free Camouflage (suitable for oily skin) or Under-Eye Concealer, both of which help to conceal hyperpigmentation, rosacea and dark circles.
Summer looks
Below are three perfect summer looks for any occasion. Whether your clients want to stand out with a vibrant “bright red” look perfect for summer parties, make a statement with our “vivid fuchsia” for an evening out or keep it simple with our casual daytime “natural pink” look.
