Summer is all about embracing your wild side and having fun â so why not do the same with your makeup?
Get ready for the hot weather by testing out a few of 2017âs most daring makeup trends, and youâll be sure to turn heads everywhere you go. Read on for the top trends and tricks that will be most loved this summer!
Feathered Brows
Bold brows are always in for us, and we want to keep it that way! Now, we have a new technique thatâs been rolling around the internet â feathering!
Feathering your brows is extremely easy, and gives you that gorgeous au-naturale look. Simply brush the front of your clientâs brows up and set them that way. This will make her brows look fuller and thicker in an effortless way, rather than blocking off her brows with harsh fill lines!
Colorful Lips
How excited are you about the fact that the colorful lip is back this summer??! Except this time, itâs not a cheap 90âs lipstick that makeup artists are stocking up onâŚ
This summer, itâs all about bold colors that work with your clients overall look. Light purples, blues, yellows, and greens have been dominating the drugstore and high-end brands. Unsurprisingly, all of these colors just scream summer! Theyâre perfect for a hot summer’s night on the town.
If your client is looking for a daring trend to try, pull out your lip palette and start mixing some custom colors!
Artistic Accents
First it was faux freckles, then it was holographic highlighter, and now weâve seen makeup artistry go to a new level. Adding real art to your makeup (although weâll argue that makeup is an art form) will give your clients a unique and creative statement to wear.
From floral designs to spots, there is literally a never-ending list of what you can create. These looks have been conquering at summer festivals already, and weâre hoping to see a few more creative looks this season!
âWetâ Eyeshadows
We are loving this makeup trend for summer. Not only does it complement that fresh, dewy skin look, itâs also a fun trick to master! Youâll need to do a bit of experimenting to get your wet-eye look just right.
Test out different strategies of applying âwetâ or âglossyâ eye products â from Vaseline, to wet eyeshadow, to lip gloss (yes, thatâs a thing) you have a mountain of options to try before calling it quits!
Perhaps the trickiest part about this makeup trend is making the wet-eye makeup stay all day long, especially in the summer heat! Since powdering will take away your glossed-over look, we recommend using an eyeshadow primer or strong setting spray to get the job done. They may not be foolproof, but theyâll make it last a few extra hours!
Fresh Faced
We know, we know â this isnât exactly âcutting edgeâ nor is it a particularly new makeup trend. However, for the girl whoâs afraid of facing the world without a full-face of makeup, this trend is definitely bold.
When we saw fresh faced, we mean no makeup whatsoever. And while we acknowledge that itâs not a new thing for most people, for some itâs a completely new ball game. Going bare faced to school, work, or even the beach can be panic-inducing for a lot of people. Allow your clients to feel comfortable in their skin by giving it a breath of fresh air!
Wearing makeup all day, every day can make your skin tired and dull. You may think you need a lot of coverage if you have a couple of blemishes or dark spots, but you really donât! Try to use less and less product each morning, and get to a point where you feel comfortable going outside without any on.
Trust us â youâll feel like a brand new woman!
Touch of Blush
For the lazy girlâs makeup kit, this trend is a savior. All you need to keep on hand is your favorite shade of blush â even better if itâs liquid or cream! Blush isnât just for the cheeks anymore. Weâre seeing blushed-out eyes and lips all over the place, with complimentary glow across the high points of the face.
Give your makeup clients a peachy-keen glow with just one product!
