☀️🤍 Prep & Skin
Light Summer skin looks best fresh, soft and cool, so the base is where you keep it light and clear. A hydrating SPF first, then a foundation and concealer with a C or CN in the name for a cool undertone, matched to your depth. Powder in the T-zone w...
Cool Bone is a light shade with cool rosy-peach undertones, so it blends into fair, cool skin without a yellow cast. The finish is soft matte and stays put, which Light Summer skin needs where it tends to blush or get shiny. Pick the C shade closest ...
1C1 Cool Bone Double Wear Lightweight Matte Foundation - Estee Lauder
A light, finely milled powder that blurs shine without leaving a white cast on fair, cool skin. Light Summer coloring looks best soft and fresh, so press it on the T-zone and under the eyes and leave the cheeks bare for a natural glow.
Light Born This Way Soft Blur Setting Powder - Too Faced
A soft mist that locks the base and blurs it into skin, so powdery spots look smooth instead of heavy. It suits Light Summer because the finish stays fresh and fine rather than flat. Hold it at arm's length, close your eyes and spray in an X and a T.
Easy Bake Blurring Setting Spray - Huda Beauty
A hydrating SPF 30 for the first step. It leaves the skin light and fresh, so the sheer base and the soft pink color stay delicate. Smooth it over the face and neck and reapply when you are outside.
Screentime Non-Comedogenic Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30 - Sofie Pavitt Face
08P is very light with pink undertones, so it brightens under the eyes without a yellow cast. Pick the shade in your own depth and tap it on with a finger, then blend the edge into the base.
08P Best Skin Ever Multi-Use Concealer - SEPHORA COLLECTION
🩶 Shape & Glow
This is where Light Summer gets its glow. Shape with a soft taupe contour that reads like a natural shadow, then add a light pink gel blush on the apples, a pink opal highlighter on top of the cheekbones and a dusty rose for a deeper flush when you w...
Puff is a light pink gel cream that melts into a sheer, cool flush, close to how Light Summer cheeks look after a walk in the cold. It builds from barely there to soft rosy, so start with a small dot and tap it on with your fingers high on the apples...
Puff Cloud Paint Gel Cream Blush - Glossier
Strawberry Cream is a dusty rose liquid blush, softer and more muted than the pink above, so you can layer it for a deeper rosy cheek. A little goes far: dot it on, blend with a damp sponge and add a second layer for an evening look.
Strawberry Cream Blush Filter Soft Glow Liquid Blush - Huda Beauty
A neutral taupe contour stick that reads like a soft natural shadow, not a stripe of bronze. Pick the shade a step or two deeper than your skin, draw it under the cheekbone and along the hairline, then blend with a damp sponge.
Clay Precision Sculpture Stylo Contour Stick - KJH.brand
Glassy Opal is an iridescent pink, a soft cool glow that fits Light Summer better than gold. Swipe it along the top of the cheekbones and tap with a finger to blend the edge.
Glassy Opal Bio-Radiant Glassy Balm Highlighter Stick - Haus Labs
🖤 Brows & Eyes
Light Summer eyes look best soft and cool, not harsh. A gray-brown brow frames the face without the weight of black, a lavender lid stick adds a dreamy wash, a cool light brown liner defines the lashes and a brown mascara finishes it. Skip warm coppe...
Grey suits ash blonde to light ash brown brows, giving a soft gray-brown that frames Light Summer eyes without the weight of dark brown. If your brows are darker, pick the Brown shade instead. Brush up first for the lift, then feather small strokes t...
Grey Boy Brow Volumizing Eyebrow Gel-Pomade - Glossier
Dusty Mauve is a shimmering lavender with a soft pearl, which is the lid color Light Summer coloring wears best: cool, light and a little dreamy. Swipe it across the lid, blend with a fingertip and let it dry for a long-wear wash.
Dusty Mauve Long-Wear Waterproof Cream Eyeshadow Stick - Bobbi Brown
A brown mascara is a softer choice for Light Summer eyes than jet black. It lifts and separates the lashes without a heavy look. Wiggle it at the root, pull through to the tips and keep it to one or two light coats.
Brown Clean Volume Volumizing Tubing Mascara - MERIT
Rich Chocolate is a neutral brown, softer than black and still defined, so the eye stays light and open. Draw it close to the lashes and smudge the edge with a small brush or a fingertip.
Rich Chocolate Long-Wear Cream Waterproof Eyeliner Stick - Bobbi Brown
🍒 Lips
Light Summer lips look best in soft, cool color. Powder pink, rose and a touch of lavender make light skin glow, while orange, brick and heavy brown tend to look harsh. A soft pink liner gives a clean edge, the pastel pink satin lipstick does the col...
Saint Germain is a clean pink, which keeps the mouth fresh and cool like the rest of a Light Summer face. The satin finish feels hydrating, so it works on its own or over the pink liner. Press it on the center of the lips first, then blend out to the...
Saint Germain M·A·Cximal Sleek Satin Lipstick - MAC
Frosty is a clear lilac oil that leaves a cool, glassy sheen with a hint of lavender, so Light Summer lips look soft and dewy. It also works over the pink lipstick to add shine. Dab it in the center of the lips and press them together.
Frosty Lip Glaze Hydrating Cooling Sheer Lip Oil - Glossier
A thick overnight balm that leaves lips soft by morning, which matters because Light Summer lipstick looks best on smooth, even lips. Press a generous layer on at night and wipe off the extra in the morning before the lip liner.
Buttermask Intense Repair Lip Treatment - Kiehl's
A soft cool pink liner that keeps the edge of a light pink or rose lip clean without turning orange. Draw the outline, fill the lips in lightly and layer your lipstick on top so the color stays soft.
