que coiza !

So I've been in Maryland almost going on a month due to a foot injury (aka le suck) and I've had mucho time to think about things I love. About summer, about the sun and the things that intrigue and enrapture me about this time of lovely year.

With all this time I decided to put together a sort of Summer beauty list or composite of things I do and like.


1) Hair pretty much remains down and free flowing. I hate the way hair looks the first day after a wash so I usually just bun that shit then let it go freeeee for the next week. Yes, I wash my hair once a week.



If it's way too hot to be touting those locks, I like doing a messy bun for fun but usually with a few flecks of hair in the front.



2) Next up FACE. Now I am probably going to sound like a horrible person but I can't stand sunblock on my face. Personally, my skin is oily enough as it is so I try to avoid pretty much putting any of that crap on it even though I know I really should. Normally, I'm a lady who loves her catty eyeliner but for the Summer I keep it super cash and focus on other areas aside from my eyes.

To put it plainly, it's all about the eyebrows and cheekbones : bronzer or as I like to do is use a darker more terracotta blush and a hit of light brown eyeshadow, mix and hit those cheekbones hard, Mascara on the eyebrows and eyelashes and voila!




^oh cheeky!

If you want to sass this look up for evening I recommend just adding a touch of color to your lids and using a glossy coat to it (lip balm works well) and it's party times. Ps. dudes are going to want to touch you so be prepared. 

Last but not least:  3) Keep it simple in the wardrobe department.

There's nothing more obnoxious than seeing a person in a billion layers in the dead of summer. Not only is it an eyesore but it gives heatstrokes to those around you. 


Thee end.
