And so the summer days have come. Although were I live they are unfortunately very rainy, there is a fun vibe in the air. Why not then translating this mood into a make-up!? Here a perfect make-up for this summer season, were having fun with colours is a must!!!
This look looks good on everyone, but especially on those with blue eyes.
Being very colourful it’s more of a day-time look, as in in the evening it wouldn’t be noticed. I know that not a lot of people like to use bright colours, but believe me if I tell you that the final effect is really nice.
First of all you need to put a base on your skin. I’ve used a foundation, as I’m not yet tanned, but remember it’s better not to use it in this season. Use instead a coloured cream, preferably with a UV protection. You choose what is best for you skin. The important thing is that the effect remains fresh and light.
Then we go on to the EYES:
I’ve applied a bright yellow eye-shadow (Sephora) starting from the inner corner of the eye and covering half of the eyelid
I’ve then added an orange eye-shadow (Pupa) on the remaining eyelid, leaving aside a thin stripe under the eyebrow, and then I’ve shaded it. (don’t worry if I look like a butterfly, I’ve modified the picture just so you could see the procedure better)
I’ve put a golden lighter in the area that I had left without make-up, in order to give a light-point and I’ve shaded again. Small TIP: in order to get better shading use the tip of your ring finger , as our own skin is the best material for this operation. The only thing to check is that there are no leftovers of make-up on it (like the foundation if you use your hand to put it on)!
With a small brush I’ve applied on the lower eyelid, just under the lashes, a green eye-shadow (Kiko) with small touches being careful not to draw a too thick line. I’ve put a green kajal pencil inside, a black mascara and a cream on the eye-brows.
I finish with an apricot lip-gloss.

E così sono arrivate le giornate estive. Anche se dove vivo io sono purtroppo molto piovose, la voglia di divertimento è nell’aria. Perchè allora non traduciamo questo stato d’animo in make-up? Ecco quindi un trucco adatto alla bella stagione, dove divertirsi anche con i colori è d’obbligo!!!
Tutte possono permetterselo, ma donerà moltissimo a coloro che hanno gli
occhi azzurri.
Essendo molto colorato è più adatto al giorno, di sera non verrebbe
molto notato. So che molte non amano usare colori cosi sgargianti, ma fidatevi
l’effetto è molto carino.
Per iniziare si stende la base. Io non essendo ancora abbronzata
ho usato il fondotinta, ma tenete presente che non è il massimo in questa
stagione. Meglio una crema colorata, preferibilmente con protezione UV.
Decidete voi ciò che è meglio per la vostra pelle, l’ importante è che
l’effetto resti fresco e leggero.

Poi passiamo agli occhi:
Then we go on to the eyes:
Ho applicato un ombretto giallo fluo (Sephora) partendo dall’angolo interno dell’occhio e ricoprendo praticamente metà della palpebra mobile.
—————————-
I’ve applied a bright yellow eye-shadow (Sephora) starting from the inner corner of the eye and covering half of the eyelid
Poi ho aggiunto un arancione acceso (Pupa) sul resto della palpebra, tralasciando una piccola striscia al di sotto delle sopraccaglia e ho sfumato. (Non preoccupatevi se sembro una farfalla, ho modificato le foto in modo che possiate vedere meglio la procedura.)

I’ve then added an orange eye-shadow (Pupa) on the remaining eyelid, leaving aside a thin stripe under the eyebrow, and then I’ve shaded it. (don’t worry if I look like a butterfly, I’ve modified the picture just so you could see the procedure better)
Ho messo un illuminante dorato molto chiaro nella zona che avevo
lasciato senza trucco, per dare un punto-luce e ho sfumato nuovamente. Piccolo
consiglio: per sfumare al meglio usate il polpastrello del dito anulare, è il
più leggero e la nostra pelle è forse il materiale migliore per questa
operazione. L’unica accortezza da prendere è controllare che non ci siano
residui di altro trucco sul dito (come ad esempio fondotinta se lo applicate
con le mani)!

Con un pennellino a lingua di gatto ho applicato sulla palpebra inferiore, appena sotto le ciglia, un verde irridescente (Kiko); A piccoli tocchi facendo attenzione a non fare una linea troppo spessa. Ho passato una matita kajal verde nella rima interna, un mascara volumizzante e un gel sulle sopracciglia.
Finisco con un gloss albicocca sulle labbra.
