The hair is the easy part. Spray your hair liberally with a dry shampoo like Klorane Gentle Dry Shampoo, $19 at sephora.com, and scrunch hair with your hands to get a bit of texture. Then, pull your hair back into a soft, messy bun, raking back your part with your hands so that it disappears. Take two thin, elastic headbands, like Scunci No Damage Headbands, $5.29 for 4 at drugstore.com, and place one on the front half of the head, and one on the back half of the head about 3 inches apart. Pull out a few pieces of hair for a softer, more romantic look.
As for the makeup, I'd start with a tinted moisturizer because it gives more of a glow than foundation and lets your skin shine through while providing coverage. I like Kiehls Ultra Facial Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15, $24.50 at kiehls.com, because it looks natural but actually evens out your skin tone. Use a cream concealer like MAC Studio Sculpt Concealer, $16.50 at maccosmetics.com, to hide imperfections, and a sheer dusting of pressed powder, like Stila Sheer Pressed Powder, $28 at sephora.com, to cut shine. Define your brows with a pencil like Anastasia Perfect Brow Pencil, $22 at sephora.com, and brighten your lids with a nude cream shadow like Benefit's Creaseless Shadow/Liner in Birthday Suit, $19 at sephora.com. Line the eyes with a gold liquid liner like Styli-Style's Special Effects Liquid Metallics in Gold, $7.49 at stylistyle.com, and highlight the apples of the cheeks with a peachy-coral blush like MAC's Blushcreme in Lilicent, $18 at maccosmetics.com. The important thing is to keeps the cheeks slightly flushed, the skin natural looking, and to give the eyes a bit of definition and a gorgeous golden sheen. It's glamorous and relaxed, all at once.

Wow, she looks gorgeous! Very grown up, but not in a Lindsey Lohan way. I love the hair, wish I could see the back!
ReplyDeleteI do too! I couldn't find any pics of the back that weren't totally covered by that umbrella. :(
