It’s summer and you know what that means… longer nights, flirty fashion and bright, beautiful makeup. Okay, we know what you’re thinking. The summer heat is not exactly conducive to long-wear, smudge-proof makeup. Not to worry. We’ve gathered the best weather-proof makeup products for the prettiest summer night out!
BRONZED IN THE CITY
What’s the one makeup trend that keeps returning every summer, year after year? Bronzer, of course. A great product to try out is the Beauty and the City Antioxidant-Rich Beauty in the City Bronzer Tint. Unlike other formulations that tend to be heavy on the pigments, this product offers a translucent sheer finish that can easily be built up in targeted areas for a healthy glow. Get a soft, dewy glow by using this tint on its own or blended into your moisturizer for an ethereal effect.
Maybe you’re after something a little more dramatic? Take a cue from golden goddess Jennifer Lopez and douse your complexion in just the right amount of sparkle. The key, according to her long-time makeup artist Mary Phillips, is to use the “three technique”. Follow the shape of the number three: apply the bronzer at the temples, curving down to the cheekbones and finally down and along the cheekbones.

MAGIC WITH MASCARA
Just because it’s hot and humid outside doesn’t mean you need to skimp on the drama. Summer nights call for a sexy dose of dark, moody eye makeup. Your secret weapon? The Beauty and the City Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara. Trust this lightweight formulation to bring lashings of volume and density to even the finest eyelashes. The paraben- and sulfate-free blend does double duty by also being waterproof and smudge-proof to boot. Round off the smoky eye effect with the Beauty and the City Eyebrow Pencils to add extra definition to the brows and frame the eyes beautifully.
SHIMMERY SEDUCTION
Great news if you’re not an expert when it comes to applying glittery makeup. The Hydrating Beauty and the City Face and Body Shimmer by Beauty and the City was made for you. Packed full of delicate shimmery sparkles, it’s the perfect way to illuminate just about any night-time makeup look. This light skin softening mist works by lightly dusting your face in a soft shimmer. Spritz it over your foundation, eye makeup or simply your moisturizer. Then again, you could go full disco diva like Camilla Cabello and add it to shimmery pastel eye makeup.

The trend to bring back all things 90s continues well into this summer season and we couldn’t be more pleased. Case in point: this dark, glossy pout as seen on Kylie Jenner. The effect is chic and luxurious – the perfect mood for sultry summer nights. Keen to give it a try? Start off by lining the lips in your favorite shade of lip liner (Beauty and the City Lip Liners come in four rich shades to choose from).
