1. Sunburned
In case you haven’t heard, blush mimicking sunburn is still in. While many of us might know the trick already—applying the blush on the tops of the cheeks, passing through the nose—one other tip tends to be overlooked: proper blending. Pamm tells us that to make the look appear more natural, properly blending your blush out is key.
2. Faux Freckles
Luckily for those of us who don’t naturally have freckles but badly want them, makeup is there to save the day. “Always make sure to use different textures, shapes and colors,” Pamm shares when asked about how to make them seem natural.
3. Bronzed Glow
Want an instant tan? Reach for your favorite bronzer. But instead of contouring the parts we’re used to, Pamm says that we should switch it up, thinking about where the sun hits us, such as the forehead, the tops of the cheeks, the bridge of the nose and the chin. To make your bronzed glow pop even more, highlight your favorite areas.
