💋 Kissed by Strawberries 🍓 A Flirty Flush You’ll Want All Over

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

Strawberry season isn’t just for your smoothies—it’s for your makeup bag too. 🍓
The flirty flush we fell for last summer (hi, Hailey Bieber!) is back and sweeter than ever. This time, it’s a little dreamier—dewy skin, soft berry lips, and that fresh, just-bitten glow that looks like golden hour in makeup form. While guava girls may be vibing, strawberry beauty is still stealing hearts with its effortless charm. Easy to recreate, impossible not to love—this is your sign to bring the look back before the summer sun sets.

Scroll for the products I’m currently using to turn these cheeks into strawberries—who knows, maybe I’ll grab a real one too. 🍓😉

The Base 🍓✨

Strawberry makeup begins with skin that appears as if it has just drunk a tall glass of water. Hydration is key—so begin with a juicy primer or serum to get that lit-from-within glow. I like to follow it up with a lightweight moisturizer that melts right in (no pilling, no drama).

Skip the full-coverage foundation—this look calls for something breathable, like a skin-loving CC cream that lets your freckles peek through. Now for the blush moment: go for a creamy or liquid formula in a berry-kissed shade. I’m currently crushing on Saie’s Dew Blush in ‘Flirty’—tap it on the cheeks and across the bridge of your nose for that sun-kissed flush.

Finish it all off with a dewy setting spray (I’ve been misting the Dibs LoveBeam on like it’s perfume) to lock in the glow and give your skin that just-bitten, glowy finish.

Finishing Touches 🍓💋

Keep the rest of your makeup light and effortless—this look is all about those juicy cheeks doing the talking. On the eyes, skip anything too bold and sweep on a soft shimmer shadow (champagne, peach, or pinky-nude vibes only). Want a little more definition? Try a subtle tightline on the upper lash line—no one will know, but they’ll notice something.

A few swipes of your favorite mascara and a quick flick of brow gel to fluff and lift, and you’re halfway to berry bliss.

Now for the lips—aka the cherry (or strawberry) on top. Go in with a high-shine gloss in a berry-pink tint. I’m currently obsessed with the Laneige Glaze Craze—it’s glassy, plumping, and not even a little bit sticky. Just juicy enough to make your lips look kiss-me-ready.

Radiance, Unfiltered 🍓

Strawberry makeup isn’t just a trend—it’s a whole vibe. Soft, flushed, and effortlessly pretty, it’s the kind of look that makes you feel like you… just with an extra pop of color. Whether you’re heading to brunch, lounging bare-faced, or chasing golden hour, this sweet little routine brings the beauty (and the berries).

These are the exact products I’m using to get the look—because if I’m turning into a strawberry girl, I’m doing it right. 🍓😉

Selena Gomez’s Go-To Summer Glow — Straight from Her MUA

Published on by Lee2 Comments

When it comes to nailing that effortlessly sun-kissed summer vibe, no one does it quite like Selena Gomez. Thanks to celebrity makeup artist Jenna Nicole — the talent behind the faces of Brenda Song, Ashley Park, and more — we’ve got the inside scoop on Selena’s natural makeup routine. Spoiler: it’s a Rare Beauty lovefest. Think radiant skin, softly defined eyes, and a pop of pink on the cheeks — the kind of glow that looks like you, only better. Lightweight, breathable, and beginner-friendly, this look is as easy to recreate as it is to fall in love with. Consider this your summer skin cheat sheet.

Base

Start by evening out the complexion with your choice of Rare Beauty’s Positive Light Tinted Moisturizer for sheer, dewy coverage or the Liquid Touch Foundation if you prefer a bit more polish. A dab of Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer helps spot-correct while keeping things light and breathable. To lock it all in (without losing the glow), Jenna sweeps on the True To Myself Finishing Powder, blurring everything to a soft-focus finish.

Next comes the warmth: a kiss of bronzer dusted over the temples and cheekbones — not for harsh contouring, but for that believable, back-from-the-beach kind of radiance. For the cheeks, Jenna custom-mixes Soft Pinch Liquid Blush in Worth and Virtue for a fresh, sunkissed flush. And the finishing touch? Faux freckles dotted across the nose and cheeks using a brown eyeliner — playful, effortless, and peak summer beauty.

Eyes & Lips

To softly sculpt the eyes while keeping things minimal, Jenna begins with Rare Beauty Stay Vulnerable Liquid Eyeshadow in Nearly Neutral, a warm neutral beige that creates a soft wash of color across the lids. For added depth, she layers on Armani Beauty Eye Tint in 22M Cashew, a warm, matte tan that blends seamlessly into the crease, subtly enhancing the eye’s natural shape. She tightlines the upper waterline with black eyeliner for quiet definition, then coats both top and bottom lashes in black mascara for a flirty, wide-eyed finish.

On the lips, Jenna maintains an effortless yet polished vibe. A deep pink lip pencil adds soft structure, then she finishes with one of two go-to summer staples. For a sheer flush of color with a hydrating feel, she reaches for the Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil in Serenity, a warm rose that delivers that fresh, just-bitten effect. For something a little more luminous, she swaps in the Positive Light Luminizing Lip Gloss in Glimmer — a rose gold gloss infused with champagne and rose gold pearls that catches the light just right. The overall look is easy, radiant, and summer-ready — the kind of makeup that works whether you’re on the beach or heading out for rooftop drinks.

Natural, radiant, and totally wearable — this is summer beauty, the Rare Beauty way.

Hailey Bieber Says This Summer Is All About Lemontini Makeup

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

Lemontini Summer Is Here — And She’s Loud 🍋✨

PSA: There’s a new “it” girl in your makeup bag — and she’s citrusy, bold, and ready to party. Meet Lemontini Summer — a high-voltage take on yellow that’s anything but mellow.

Thanks to Hailey Bieber and her zesty Rhode lip treatment drop, lemon just claimed top spot as this season’s must-have shade. But this isn’t pastel or buttery — Lemontini is punchy, electric, and built for baddies who like their glam loud.

We’re talking lemon drop energy: bold lids, golden highlights, a look that says you didn’t just show up — you shut it down. Our favorite way to wear it? A sharp, graphic Lemontini eye that turns heads from poolside hangs to rooftop nights.

Here’s how to get the look that’s lighting up IG and TikTok right now…

Glowy, Locked-In Base 🔐✨

Summer glam starts with skin that stays put — no melting, no creasing, just glow. Begin with a grippy primer to keep your beat locked in from brunch to golden hour. Then smooth on your favorite skin tint for that breathable, barely-there feel (hello, no-makeup makeup). Tap in concealer where you want a little extra brightening — under eyes, around the nose, or anywhere you want to fake 8 hours of sleep.

Now let’s bring the warmth. Sweep bronzer along your temples, cheekbones, and jawline to sculpt and sun-kiss all in one. For blush, go bold: think juicy salmon pinks or a punchy sunset orange to balance those vibrant Lemontini eyes. Pro tip? Blush across the nose = instant beach-babe energy.

Abstract Lemontini Eyes 🍋👁️

Brows first, always. Fill them in like you normally do, then clean up any strays underneath to keep all the focus where it belongs — on that graphic liner moment.

Start with a smooth canvas: blend a creamy neutral shadow across your lids, then add a touch of warm bronzy-brown to the outer corners for depth and dimension. It’s subtle, but it sets the stage.

Now for the drama. Use your go-to black liquid liner to create a sharp cat-eye that hugs the upper lash line. Then comes the showstopper: take a bold lemon-yellow liner (Urban Decay 24/7 Inks in “Mucho Mucho” is chef’s kiss) and draw a clean swoop just above the crease, following the curve of your brow bone. This is your Lemontini moment — citrusy, graphic, and impossible to ignore.

To pull it all together, sweep a matching yellow shadow along the lower lash line for that full 360 pop.

And don’t forget the gloss. A juicy lip adds just the right amount of shine to balance the look — because no summer beat is complete without it.

You’ve Got the Look — Now Go Serve 🍋✨

Lemontini glam isn’t just a makeup moment — it’s a whole mood. It’s golden hour selfies, spontaneous nights out, and a vibe that says “main character only.” Whether you’re rocking the citrus liner or remixing the trend your own way, this summer? You’re the glow.
