Summer 2012 Beauty Trends
Thanks to Walgreens for underwriting this post. I was paid as a member of the Clever Girls Collective, but the content is all mine. Visit http://www.discoverbeautywithin.com/
The summer is swiftly approaching, and peepers and puckers are as playful as they come. Summer beauty trends are chock full of color, and with stores like Walgreens, these chic looks are achievable on a budget!
Trend: Aqua Pop
Products: Milani Runway Eyes, "Caribbean Sea"
Pastels are a surefire way to keep an outfit ladylike and demure. Kick the color up a notch by using it for a cat-eye flicker. To get this look, I used the "cake liner" method - wetting an angled brush and using a dry shadow. Milani Runway Eyes is engineered to transition well from wet-to-dry.
*please excuse my squinty eye, flash is the devil!*

Trend: Violet/Berry Stained Lips
Product: Revlon "Va Va Violet"
Usually reserved for fall beauty, deep violets and berry lip stains maintain a crisp spring air when paired with nude, fresh faces. Want to play with color? Add a lighter hue to the center for an orchid lip.

Trend: Tangerine Lips
Product: Wet N' Wild "Purty Persimmon"
What is not to love about tangerine? The kinfolk to the traditional red lip breathes a new life to everything from peplum skirts to maxi dresses. Not much else is needed with color like this!
