Now more than ever, our eyes are the focus of our faces. Keep your eyes looking fresh and trendy by following a few simple steps. Start with an eye shadow base to help your look last all day. Next, pick your colors, and don’t be afraid to be bold. Warm, rust colors look great on deeper complexions and can be easily blended out in the crease of the eye to give your eyes depth. If you're looking to amp up your look even more, add a bright color like yellow and pack it all over your lid. Add a highlight shade just to the inner corner of the eye to brighten. Pop on some mascara and maybe even some strip lashes and you are ready for the day! - Lula Bess, RN, BSN

Blush and copper tones are the trend of the summer! We’ve all seen the typical bronze babe look but this specific trend gives you more light and radiance! On the eyes I used three different shades of pink for a light cranberry look. I started by blending 3 matte shades going from light peach on the outer crease, blush pink in the crease and a more cranberry pink on the lid. It makes the eye look more open and brings out the color beautifully. To finish off, I added a fluffy lash and ivory liner in the waterline.
To spice it up and take it from a day to night look, I added a metallic copper onto the lid on top of the cranberry shade. Depth was added to the eye by putting a dark brown liner in the waterline and more mascara on the bottom lashes. Both very easy and fresh looks for summer! - Chanty Vargas
