Update your makeup this summer 
By Carla Snuggs

Now that we’re a few weeks into summer, we hope you’ve transitioned from spring makeup to summer makeup? If you’re still using the same foundation, lipsticks and mascaras from spring, it will be okay – help is on the way! Posh Beauty Blog was super stoked to receive summer beauty trends and tips from Helpouts provider and professional makeup artist Samantha Klein. Samantha Klein provides the following tips for what to toss and what to add to your summer makeup bag:

1) Full Coverage Foundations - Summer's all about natural beauty. Toss the heavy foundation and opt for a lightweight coverage such as a tinted moisturizer or BB cream for fresh and glowing summer skin.Spend less time on your makeup routine and let your skin breathe! Instead Try: Smashbox.com

2) Dark Lipstick - For berry kissable lips, swipe on sheer lip gloss with a hint of color to mimic your favorite summer fruits such as strawberries or raspberries. Instead Try: Stilacosmetics.com

3) Powder Compacts - Besides margaritas, blotting papers are a girls best-friend in the summer. They remove excess shine and oil without adding additional product to the skin. Plus, they are budget-friendly and super slim so they are easy to transport for quick touch ups as needed. Instead Try: Nyxcosmetics.com

4) Heavy Moisturizer Cream - There's no need to layer on thick moisturizers during the summer, especially during the day time. Reach for an oil-free and light-weight moisturizer that delivers the benefits of a cream minus the heavy feel on your skin while getting the nourishment your skin craves. Try: Dermalogica.com

5) Black Mascara - A quick tip to perk up tired eyes is to apply clear mascara without looking over-done or too noticeable. An added bonus to adding clear mascara to your makeup stash is to apply it to your brows and groom them in place. Try: Covergirl.com
