This summer, ditch the heavy glammed-up look for a dewy, fresh style instead. Keep it simple yet appealing with these easy hair and make-up tips:
Skip base make-up The lesser, the better. You don t want to layer up your face and sweat it all out in the heat. Use a stick concealer to cover blemishes and dark circles.
Wear purple lipstick Make-up artist Twisha Ganjoo suggests a bright purple lip colour for all complexions. Here are some other lip colour suggestions from our expert.
Look for a clear mascara Long-lasting, waterproof mascaras are the best. But, if these seem to irritate your eyes, apply a coat of clear (transparent) mascara over the regular black one. This prevents clamping and does not smudge.
Use a tinted moisturiser For that gorgeous, natural glow use a moisturiser that leaves a shine on your skin. Replace the layer of foundation with a light tinted moisturiser.
Wear bronzing sunscreen Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30) and look for one with a light bronzing effect if you prefer. You could also brush some loose bronzing powder over the sun block. Here are remedies for the summer suntan!
Style heat-free curls - For those gorgeous beach curls and waves, braid your hair into a loose plait the night before and wake up with easy, soft waves! Watch this video for heat-free curls.
