Blessed are the days when we awaken with that happy-go-lucky feeling where nothing, but nothing, can bring us down. As a tried-and-true beach girl, such times bring back memories of twirling down a sandy beach with waves lapping at my feet. Bliss!
A bronzy, golden look is the face to match this magically in-tune mood. Best of all, a kissed-by – the-sun, back-from-vacation glow can be yours at any time. Just skip along through these steps, my mellowed-out honey.
Start with the basics: primer, foundation, blemish and under-eye concealer (if needed), and powder.

Now blend on a bronzer (before powder, if it’s a cream bronzer) to the temples, along the sides of the face, and under the hollows of the cheeks. Blend a tad across the bridge of your nose for an extra touch of sunshine.
Next, apply a light gold highlighter on top of the cheekbones and across the entire eyelid, from the lash line to under the brow bone, and on the inner corners of the eyes.
Apply bronzy brown eyeliner across the upper lash line, and smudge a bit under the lower lash line as well. Finish off with black mascara on the top lashes only.
Swirl on a coral blush to the apples of the cheeks and sweep on a peachy tinted lip balm for a super-carefree mood or a coral sheer lip gloss if you care a little more.
Now throw up your arms and shout with glee, I’m me, I’m free, oh blessed be! Cartwheels optional but encouraged!
