As we bid farewell to the chilly weather we are sending heavy formulas and matte make-up finishes on their merry way as well.
This summer we are opting for natural, glowing, and dewy makeup applications of what the experts call the ‘no makeup, makeup look. Here’s why we’re thrilled:
Summer 2022 makeup trends are hot-weather and amateur-friendly. With a more unfinished look, you don’t have to have the most practiced hand—and you don’t need to stress about the heat and humidity melting your foundation away. Not to mention, you’re probably more inclined to reapply sunscreen every two hours when you know it won’t mess up your contour.
Think tinted moisturizers, cream blush, and glossy lips. If your finished look gives off a just-strolled-off-the-beach vibe, congratulations, you have the trends locked down.
Without a doubt, there are classic summer beauty trends that are also resurfacing this season. Flushed cheeks, bronzy glow, and bright pops of color are all coming back in the most low-key, playful ways possible. In other words, these trends perfectly match the more relaxed vibe of summer.
Here’s what’s hot:
Summer makeup trends
Polished Pout
Goodbye matte lips! Bring the shine with this season’s go-to glossy lips trend. Glossy lips were seen gliding down the spring/summer 2022 runway, and for good reason!
We love a natural lip with a clear gloss, but you can use any colour you want, as long as it’s topped off with that glossy finish.

Sunburn Chic
It’s all about the rosy, flushed cheeks. A faux sunburnt blush look is definitely trending this summer.
The best way to achieve this look is with a cream cheek blush for that perfect summer sun-kissed glow. Pat the product on your cheeks and lightly across the bridge of your nose in hues of pink, coral, and peach.

Clean Beauty
The no-makeup-makeup reigns supreme in warm weather. It’s all about enhancing your natural features while keeping the skin super hydrated, healthy, and glowing.
To achieve this look, skip the full-coverage foundation. Try a tinted moisturiser or a sheer coverage and dewy finish foundation. You can add a bit of concealer where needed.
