Holiday Make up tips from Honour Bailey at Maija Make up

We thought it would be great for our blog to get some make up, hair and beauty tips for you guys! We have worked with Honour Bailey at Maija Make up before for our Spring Summer shoot with Tom Barnes. Honour has given you guys some holiday tips when it comes to sun, sea and sand this summer!

1. The holy grail of holiday tips, use an oil free sunscreen of your face because if you burn your face and go red it is extremely hard to cover up for when you want to go out later. The reason oil free is the best to use is that they are usually a lot lighter on the skin and wont clog up your pores or create blemishes.

2. If you don’t want to go completely makeup free for the day tinting your lashes before you go away is a great way to darken your lashes and make them look thicker, & you can also wear a waterproof mascara (some brands I recommend are the double ended L’Oreal waterproof one or the kiko luxurious lashes) Another way to define your eyes which doesn’t involve wearing a lot of makeup is to use a waterproof line and line your TOP waterline.

3. Finally when going out skip the concealer stage as the shade will most probably be too many shades too light for you after being in the sun. Just stick to a tinted moisturiser, some bronzer on the cheeks and around the hairline, and some highlighter on the tops of the cheeks and down the centre of the nose. Apply fake lashes a liquid liner and lip gloss/lipstick.
