Summer must - haves

If you know me, you know I love color - especially when it comes to makeup and clothes. Summer is a perfect time to embrace bright color - teal, turquoise, hot pink, purple. If you are looking to add a little color, here are some great places to start!

Add a little sparkle to your eyes with Stila Sparkle Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner. Line your upper lashes, and you are ready to go! It is waterproof, so its perfect for a pop of color along the lower lash line as well.  


Try a new nail color! I love Nicole by OPI colors this year (Target has the best selection). They are so bright and happy. Today I'm sporting this:

Another fun nail trend to try is shatter polish. I've read tons of reviews and settled on OPI shatter. I've had the best success with the black shatter  - it looks great under hot pink polish! It also comes in silver, turquoise, blue, navy, red, white.




My favorite makeup line, Urban Decay  makes adding color easy. Grab a tube of their award winning eyeshadow primer in Greed (shimmery gold color), pick up their Fun Palette which is packed full of brightness, and make sure you remember a makeup setting spray (it really works! Promise.) Don't forget to treat your lips to some color. I'm loving UD's Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Crush and Midnight Cowboy.

What are some of your summer favorites?
