Graze Tarte Cheek Stain ($30.00) in True Love on the apples of your cheeks and blend with your fingers. Lightly frame the outer corners of your eyes with Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick ($28.00) in Bark. Finish this dewy, fresh look with a hydrated lip using EOS Lip Balm ($3.29) in your favorite flavor.
Start by applying OCC Pure Cosmetic Pigment ($14.00) in Burnt Amber to your lash line and blend upwards just past your crease. Drag your bottom liner straight out to your temple, disconnecting from the center of your eye on (then inward) meeting your lash line and creating a triangle.
