Look of the Week: Fresh Faces

Looking your best this summer should be next-to effortless. Flaunt your best accessories — a fresh face, and great smile — with these 7 easy-to-use picks that are hydrating, versatile and travel-ready.

  • Lips & Cheeks: Orangy-red or pink stains are this season's best bet for both lips and cheeks. Stains add a touch of natural color, but are also a great base for layering. 
  • Skin: When it comes to SPF, go broad spectrum. Combine your steps and de-clutter with a triple-action foundation, moisturizer and sunscreen.
  • Brows: What can we say? It all comes down to a great brow -- especially when wearing minimal makeup. 
  • Lashes: If you're in for tear-jerker weddings, or a poolside summer, stick to waterproof mascara. For a more natural look, do up your lashes, but leave the liner behind.

Thank you for the inclusion! Yes, definite acknowledgement to all the women of color in technology. There’s plenty of us, but our media usually gives so much attention to the athletes, singers and actresses who deserve recognition, but it’s nice to see a balance. Thank you
