Get that Summer Glow

By Shalini Vadhera

	SUMMERIZE YOUR SKIN Since the season is all about the “no makeup” look, that means starting with a flawless canvas. With summer heat and active days affecting your skin, starting with a good skin-care program gives you that glow. Opt for products that maintain consistently clear skin by exfoliating while cleansing. Try Olay Daily Facials Clarity scrub and the Clarity foaming cleanser, $6.99 each. To finish off your sun-kissed look, don’t forget to put your glow on. Break that cycle of dryness—moisturize! Hydrate your body with a good moisturizer, and opt for one that has a hint of shimmer. Add a few drops of self-tanner to your body lotion to maintain a beautiful healthy glow. Try Olay Quench body lotion, $6.99 for 13.5 ounces. For a store locator, visit olay.com.
	LIGHTEN UP Summer’s in full bloom, and that means it’s time to put your winter makeup away and lighten up. Set aside those heavy powders and foundations and move into lighter makeup textures. If you can’t go au naturel, opt for the next best thing—a tinted moisturizer. Not only will your skin look flawless, you’ll get double duty out of products with a built-in sunscreen. Try Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer, $38. Available at lauramercier.com.
	SHINE BRIGHT WITH COLOR This season, shine bright with a punch of color. Play up your eyes with bright, fun colors. Do this by applying your shadow as a onecolor “wash.” Spread color from your lid up to the crease. If you’re color-shy, opt for sheer textures or creams to give your eyes just a hint of sexy shimmer. Try the Vincent Longo Sun, Moon and Stars eye shadow trio in Sweet Melody, $30, or Nars cream eye shadow in El Dorado, $20. Available at Sephora, Fashion Valley, 619-220-0771; sephora.com.
	GET CHEEKY Get cheeky this season with subtle pinks and deep bronzes. Use a bronzer in place of your blush or eye shadow for a more defined, sculpted look. I use bronzer on a lot of my celebrity clients to give their cheekbones more definition and the look of instant weight loss. Try Almay Glow Healthy Self-Tanning Lotion for Face, $10.95. For a store locator, visit almay.com. Or try the Lorac Cheek Duo in Hot Flash, $28.50. Available at Sephora, Fashion Valley, 619-220-0771; sephora.com.
	LIP LOCK Summer’s the perfect time to give yourself a sexy pout. Move out of matte finishes and play with flirty glosses and sheer lipsticks— sans the liner. Try Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Apricot Glaze, $6.99. For a store locator, visit revlon.com. Or try Bourjois Effet 3D Cosmic Lipgloss in Framboise Magnific 23, $15. Available at Sephora, Fashion Valley, 619-220-0771; sephora.com.

GLOW ON, GIRL To finish off your sun-kissed look, don’t forget to put your glow on. Break that cycle of dryness—moisturize! Hydrate your body with a good moisturizer, and opt for one that has a hint of shimmer. Add a few drops of self-tanner to your body lotion to maintain a beautiful healthy glow. Try Olay Quench body lotion, $6.99 for 13.5 ounces. For a store locator, visit olay.com.
