Embrace the Season: Summer Makeup Trends of the Year

As the warm embrace of the sun envelops us, it's time to revamp our makeup routine and dive into the hottest summer trends of the year. Welcome to the world of Lady Burgundy, where we celebrate the art of makeup and empower individuals to express their unique beauty. In this blog post, we'll explore the most captivating and vibrant makeup trends that will keep you looking fresh, fabulous, and utterly irresistible all summer long.

1. Sun-Kissed Glow

The essence of summer lies in the radiant glow that illuminates our skin. This year, the sun-kissed look is making a bold statement on runways and Instagram feeds alike. Embrace your natural beauty by using bronzer to create a subtle warmth on your cheeks, forehead, and nose. Opt for cream-based products to achieve a dewy finish, mimicking the gentle sun rays on your skin. Complement this glow with a soft, golden highlighter on your cheekbones and brow bone for an ethereal radiance.

2. Bright Eyes, Bold Statements

Summer is the season of vibrant colours, and this year, eyeshadows are taking centre stage. Ditch the neutrals and embrace bold, electric hues like vivid blues, tropical greens, and fiery oranges. Experiment with colour-blocking techniques or create a captivating ombre effect to add depth and dimension to your eyes. For a playful touch, add a pop of shimmer to the inner corners of your eyes or draw attention with a subtle winged liner.

3. Luscious Lips

When it comes to summer lip trends, the emphasis is on making a statement with juicy, kissable lips. From punchy corals to watermelon reds and vibrant pinks, let your lips be the canvas for bold colours. Opt for lightweight, long-lasting lip stains or moisturising tinted lip balms to keep your pout hydrated and comfortable during the scorching days.

4. Feathered Brows

Say goodbye to perfectly sculpted brows, and embrace the natural, feathered look. This year's summer trend focuses on soft, brushed-up eyebrows that frame your face with a touch of carefree elegance. Use a brow gel to tame and shape your brows gently, accentuating their natural arch without going overboard.

5. Glossy Everything

Glossy finishes are having a moment this summer, from your lips to your eyelids. Swap your matte lipsticks for shiny lip glosses that add a plump, alluring dimension to your pout. For your eyes, consider experimenting with glossy eyeshadows to achieve a mesmerising, wet-look effect. The glossy trend is all about embracing that youthful, fresh-faced glow that perfectly complements the season.

6. Coloured Mascara

Traditional black mascara takes a backseat this summer as coloured mascara becomes the go-to choice for playful and eye-catching looks. Embrace the trend by choosing mascara shades that match your eyeshadow or complement your eye color. Blue, green, and purple mascaras are particularly popular choices to make your lashes pop and add a touch of whimsy to your overall look.
