# Fresh Faced Summer Makeup Tutorial

Summer is the perfect time to embrace a fresh-faced look that highlights your natural beauty. With the sun shining bright and the days getting longer, you want a makeup routine that enhances your features without feeling heavy or overwhelming. In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through a step-by-step process to achieve that radiant, fresh-faced summer makeup look. Let’s dive in!

## Step 1: Skincare Prep

Before applying any makeup, skincare should always be your first priority.

A well-prepped canvas will ensure that your makeup glides on smoothly and lasts throughout the day.

### Cleanse Your Face

Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser suited for your skin type. This will remove any dirt, oil, or impurities accumulated overnight. For a refreshing feel, you might want to use a cleanser with cooling ingredients like aloe vera or cucumber extract.

### Exfoliate (if needed)

If you have not exfoliated in a while, consider doing so at this stage.

Exfoliating helps to slough off dead skin cells, promoting a smoother texture. Look for a gentle exfoliant with ingredient options such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) for a summer-friendly glow.
