 O
ne of the biggest mistakes a woman can make is wearing too much makeup, especially in the summer. Too much makeup can actually add 10 years to a person. Here are a few tips to keep you looking great during the warmer season.
Protect Your Skin
Wear sunscreen. Lancôme has a great one. A sunscreen with at least a 15 SPF with help avoid sun damage, which can bring out those wretched fine lines.
A Fresh Face
Keep your makeup light. Use a concealer for under-eye circles and blemishes. Chanel has a waterproof one that is amazing. Chanel also has a tinted moisturizer that imparts an even "tan" and all-day glow.
For a dewy face, use the lightest veil of translucent powder. Try a bronzer on the cheekbones and chin.
The Eyes Have It
Use soft eye shadow colors, or even a light waterproof cream shadow. MAC and Chanel have some great shade. To line the eyes, use colors like slate gray, warm chocolate or navy. But use a light stroke.
Do not forget mascara. Try a waterproof formula, for those trips to the pool. No raccoon eyes for you!
Luscious Lips
For the lips, try a light colored lipstick or gloss. Avoid lip liners.
After Sun Care
To get a tanned look without damaging your skin, try a self tanner. If you do happen to get sunburned, use an after sun lotion, such as Estee Lauder’s. It helps heal sunburned skin and has a natural Aloe Vera in there to hydrate your skin. It also helps prevent skin from peeling and prolongs your tan.

Vitamins
I know that taking vitamins is important. For females, is there a difference between a multi-vitamin and a pre-natal vitamin? Is there any benefit if I swich from a multi-vitamin to a pre-natal vitamin even though I'm not pregnant?Prenatal vitamins have more folic acid and iron, which are necessary vitamins when you're pregnant. Other important vitamins are calcium and essential fatty acids (EFAs). Calcium can be found in a vitamin pill but the best source is simply whole foods such as milk, yogurt or string cheese. EFAs such as omega-3 fatty acid is found in fish such as salmon or trout!
