The Light Summer Make-Up Guide

Light Summer makeup is all about embracing light, cool hues that naturally enhance your beauty. Discover our curated selection of clean, everyday makeup perfect for you. Plus, explore inspiring examples of Light Summers wearing these beautiful shades below!

Blush.

Blush shades that complement a light summer complexion include light cool pinks, rose, or a pink coral with cool undertones. My top recommendation is the ILIA Multi-stick in Tenderly.

Lip Colors.

There are so many gorgeous lip balms, lipsticks, and lip oils available in your Light Summer colors! Look for shades that flatter your coloring, like raspberry, light cool pinks, petal pink, rose, or a pink coral with cool undertones. One of my top recommendations is the Summer Friday lip oil in ‘Pink Cloud’ for an everyday look.

Eye Shadow.

Light Summer eye shadow palettes that complement your light and cool complexion include: soft white, soft tan, light pinks, taupe, and champagne. You want to keep your eyes ‘light” so avoid darker colors on your eyes.

Mascara

You’ll want to go with a brown or brown/black mascara. Black can appear too harsh against your complexion, creating a softer and more flattering effect. My top recommendation for a brown/black mascara is from the clean brand, Thrive Causemetics.
