Simple Summer Face with pop of color(Beginners Version)

With Memorial Day being the unofficial start of summer and temperatures along with humidity on the rise. I needed to find light weight makeup options for my face. So I will not feel like the wicked witch of the west with melting makeup.

The best option for me was my mineralized powder which allows my skin to breathe so if I start sweating I will not look like a hot tragic mess. Since I am still learning and getting more comfortable with wearing it (makeup)  without feeling self conscious. And to switch it up I chose a couple of my favorite lipstick combinations with this simple look to add that summer pop of color.

Here are the items I that I used
(remember everybody doesn't drive a Cadillac)

Eyebrows- Maybeline brow pencil (drk. brown)
                      Black Radiance undereye color corrector (medium)
