My Go-To Natural Summer Makeup

 I just wanted to do a quick post about this makeup look because this is my go-to look for summer! Today it was 91 degrees outside so I didn't want anything too heavy that would just melt right off and make me look like the joker from the Dark Knight, but I still wanted coverage and something to enhance my natural features. I was going to write a giant post about how I apply everything in grave detail, but I decided just to list the products and if you have any questions about how to apply a certain product leave a comment below or message me on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/averageashleyz)! Details are below!

Base: Ben Nye Final Seal Matte Makeup Sealer

Second Base (for oily skin or hot weather): Milk of Magnesia (regular flavor, not mint)

[Side note: the combination of those two products will make sure your makeup doesn't budge, even in 91 degree weather!]

Foundation: Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous (Nude Beige)

 Highlighting concealer: Wet N Wild Coverall Concealing Wand (Light)

Powder: Palladio Rice Powder (translucent) [side note: I use a giant powder puff to apply for a smoother finish]

Contour: Essence Matte Bronzing Powder (Sunny)

Blush: Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hour Blush (True Love)

Brows: Elf Cosmetics Eyebrow Kit (Dark)

Eyeshadow (which I barely applied): the NYX Natural Shadow Palette (White, Nude, Light Brown)

Eyeliner (only on top lash line): Maybelline Master Precise (Black)

Mascara: Covergirl Lash Blast Volume (Very Black)

Lip Liner: Avon Ultra Luxury Lip Liner (neutral)

Lipstick: Essence Longlasting Lipstick (Oh So Matt!) [I'm in LOVE with this color! The picture doesn't do it justice!]

Finishing Spray: Ben Nye Final Seal Matte Makeup Sealer

I know that sounds like a ton of makeup, but I promise you it doesn't feel heavy or cakey at all and it was super simple to do. I hope you enjoyed this post and if you have ANY questions leave a comment below or message me!
