Rachel Rigler talked about this trend by saying, “It’s warm and bronzy, milky and effortless,” and she’s onto something here. This is one of the easiest trends to pull off this season. The likelihood is that you already have some sort of neutral browns, tans, and bronzes in your makeup drawer. Plus, you don’t really have to do any matching. As long as you’re sticking to the warm brown tones (which look good on most skin types and shades), you’re doing great.
For the eyes, you can keep it light if you like, but if you want to go dramatic, try Sephora Colorful Eyeshadow in Hollywood Calling, which is a shimmering bronze, on the lid and blend it up into the crease. Use a peachy neutral from the same line in Walking in the Sand under the brow. (You can emphasize your eyebrows here — the color palette supports it.) Line the top and the bottom with Milani Stay Put Eyeliner in Duchess. A black mascara will look stunning, but if you really like the monochrome look, you can use brown as well. Don’t be afraid to use the eyeliner on your lower water line, too. The monochromatic nature of this look works well with that style.
For something softer, Formless Beauty has a lovely Bronze Beauty eyeshadow palette that gives you everything you need. These are shimmer as well — Don’t fear the shimmer, friends! It will reflect the light beautifully as you glide through the sunshine.
