Summer Makeup Look - Soph & Beth Beauty ♡

As summer clothes are coming out and holidays are approaching I thought it would be appropriate to create a makeup look to go with the season. 
 All of the products mentioned.
The first product I applied to create this look was the Benefit Pore Fessional as my primer. This helps make my makeup stay on longer and creates a smooth base for the makeup to go on to. 

The next products I use come hand in hand with eachother. They are the MUA Pro Base prime and conceal in the colours Lilac and Green. I use the lilac one under my eyes to try and hide my dark circles under my eyes and I use the green one on all of my red patches to try and cancel out the redness. 

Over the top of those concealers I use a recent purchase, the Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid foundation (my shade is Ivory). This is perfect for summer as it has got spf 13 in it so you wont have to ruin your makeup by putting suncream beneath or above it. It also has got a very good coverage and is quite long lasting. To apply this is use one of the BS Mall makeup brushes mentioned in my last post (the round face brush). 

On top of my foundation I use the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer (shade;fair 01). I really like this product as it helps highlight under my eyes and has got good coverage so it covers all of my blemishes well. I use the Real Techniques makeup sponge to apply this as it helps to blend it out and not make it look too cakey. 

To set all of these products I use the Rimmel Clear Complexion powder (shade; 021 transparent) as this sets my makeup and keeps it in place for a few hours. I normally have to re powder my face halfway through the day but this is because of my oily skin. 

To give my face a summery, warm glow I use the Benefit Hoola bronzer on my cheekbones, over my forehead and under my chin. Very little of this product goes a very long way and it is definitely worth the price. 

To add a rosy tint to my face I use my NYX powder blush (shade; PB13 Mauve). I have mentioned this in many posts before because I love this product and use it a lot. 

As for highlighter I use the MUA Undress Your Skin (shade; Pink Shimmer). You need to use quite a lot of this product to make a noticeable difference but I still really like the affect it gives. Highlight is important for a summer look as it makes you look more healthy and bright.  

Next I move on to my eyes. To prime my eyes I use the Urban Decay Primer Potion. For this look I decided to use my Naked 2 palette as I love all of the shades and you can create so many different looks with it. I started by applying Tease all over my lid, then apply Pistol in my crease and it that's not sparkly enough I also add Verve in the crease. I then highlight my inner corner and brown bone using the shade Venus from the Naked Basics palette. 

As for mascara I use the Maybelline Lash Sensational, I really like the wand of this mascara as it is very similar to Benefit Roller Lash but for a much cheaper price. It makes your eyelashes looks longer and adds volume. 

Next I use my NYX Liquid Suede (shade; LSCL 07). I love this shade as its the perfect brown-nude and can match with almost any look. However, this colour isn't very bright or summery so sometimes I will swap it for my MAC lipstick in the shade Plumful. 

Finally to fully set all of my makeup I use the Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray, this keeps my makeup on all day and even when its raining! I love this product so much and its definitely worth the price.
