Glow Your Own Way (2)

the flirty post-beach glow

The cure for winter-white face: a summery faux tan. Well-moisturized skin takes a tan best, so start with a super-creamy foundation. Next, run a liquid bronze highlight on your cheekbones and down rose. Enhance eyes by sweeping a berry-bronze shadow along top and bottom lash lines over charcoal liner, then smooth more over lids and up to brows. The key to looking sun-kissed: a reddish blush mixed with s0parks of copper and gold. With all that color, lips need just a hint of shell-pink gloss.

How to make darker skin really shine? Go for the bronze, starting with a sheer brown highlighter on your forehead, cheekbones and eyes. If your skin is pale, use lighter hues. Shade eyes with a shimmery cocoa shadow, then sculpt cheeks with a rust blush applied high on your cheekbones and a deeper chocolate color brushed onto the apples and out toward your ears. Finish with a beige lip gloss.
