How to Get the Perfect Summer Party Makeup Look

The perfect summer party makeup look consists of five key elements: a mattifying primer, foundation with SPF protection, long-lasting eye colour, shimmery bronze cheeks and a soft, supple pout. By adding these things into your summer makeup look, you’ll be selfie-ready, whether attending your neighbourhood BBQ or celebrating Aussie Day with family and friends.

Here are our two summer party makeup looks to try…

Fresh faced & looking natural

1. Start by applying Smooth Affair for Oily Skin Facial Primer for an all-day matte finish.
2. Apply Dream Tint Tinted Moisturizer with your fingers or a Flocked Sponge for a soft focus finish with broad spectrum SPF 15 sun protection.
3. Swirl the White Fan Brush in either Copper Wind PurePressed Blush or Moonglow Bronzer and apply to the apples of your cheeks.
4. Using the Eye Shader Brush apply the Cream shade from the Perfectly Nude Eye Shadow Kit on your eye lid, brow bone and inner corner of your eye.
5. Using the Chisel Shader Brush, blend the Antique Gold shade from the kit onto your lid, as well.
6. With the Crease Brush, apply the Copper shade from the kit to your crease and outer corner of your eye.
