THE BASE

THE FOUNDATION
As already mentioned, the ideal would be a light and comfortable BB cream, but if you think there are more imperfections to cover than expected, then opt for a compact, water-resistant foundation, which will also create a further protective film against the sun’s rays.
PENCIL
For those who want an intense look, between one dip and another, the advice is to opt for a waterproof eye pencil in a nice bright color, like green or turquoise. Blended on the upper lash line or applied halfway up the lower lash line. Just one suggestion: avoid the pencil in case of oily skin.
MASCARA
Black and strictly water resistant: this is how mascara to wear on the beach, to be applied only on the upper lashes. To avoid the panda effect, absolutely avoid rubbing your eyes.
BLUSH
For this product, choose the peach shade, possibly in cream, and spread it on the cheekbones with the help of a brush. The blush will only be necessary during the first exposure to the sun, then your natural complexion, stimulated by the production of melanin, will be enough!
LIPS
Don’t forget to always carry a protective lipstick with UV filters to apply several times during the day. You can then use the same cream blush passed on the cheekbones as a color for the mouth, dabbed with fingertips on the lips. A very natural look for seaside lips, to which you can combine a thread of gloss for a super volume effect.
Remember that waterproof make-up resists water, but not oily substances. After you have finished your beach make-up, avoid using sun creams and oils, so as not to end up with runny make-up.
Put the mirror and the products used in your bag before going out: you will need them for a quick touch-up after a longer bath than the others. Marine mood, summer makeup, and off to the next hot adventure!
