How to make-up in Spring/Summer 2017 ?

The natural complexion enhanced by a pink blush on the cheeks

This summer, the trend is the nude foundation for a natural beauty, simply enhanced with a touch of blush, creating a balance with trendy flashy colors lipstick and eyeshadow. Then for a falsely natural and perfectly unified complexion, choose carefully your foundation. On the runways, Lanvin or Paul Smith have put forward this nude and natural complexion.

For the blush, pink is the trend of the moment as we could see on Kenzo and Chanel shows.  This summer, the blush applied very high on the face just below the eye. But in any case, the blow of blush wants to be frank and assumed, like on the Fenty Puma models show.

Flashy blue eyes

Blue is the trendy color of summer 2017 to make up your eyes like the fashion models of Victoria Beckam, Sonia Rykiel and Vanessa Seward. Then with a stroke of pencil, eyeliner or eye shadow, the ocean color will dazzle your eyes.

But whether blue or not, the look will be fluo, in a manga way, as viewed on the Anna Sui, Versus Versace and Salvatorre Ferragamo catwalks. For a glistening look, the eye is painted with a metallic or white liner at the corner of the eye.

This season all the follies are possible, the most flashy and unlikely colors will be output, so let the artist who is in you express yourself.

The eyebrows will also be noticed with original colors and shapes, like Gucci or Maison Margiela.

For the most discreet girls, the pastel eyeshadow remains trendy for summer 2017, specially in orange color as seen at Dior and Balenciaga shows. For those who prefer pastel pink as Paul Smith models or violet as Hermès ones.

Pop, flashy or dark mouth

This summer, the mouth wants to be flashy, glossy and sexy as seen on the Versus Versace shows, Mary Katrantzou or Thom Browne ones. For colors, we opt for red and all its variations from coral, to frank pink, passing by the carmine red as on the Dolce Gabbana and Giambattista Valli models. But no matter the color, the big trend for your lips will be the matte lipstick.

Also this summer, the dark lipstick will be trendy, especially black and dark purple one.

A touch of glitter

Whether on the mouth or the eyes, we put a glitter in our make-up touch as spotted on the shows Lanvin, DKNY and Fendi.
