This post is all about Seint makeup for summer!
The magic of Seint Makeup is in it’s ability to be totally customized, and I want to give you some great tips to customize your Seint Makeup for summer! Seint 3D Foundation is glowy and fresh looking (JUST SAY NO TO MATTE!) so summertime is when Seint really shows off!
If you already use Seint makeup, here are some ways to adjust your stash to personalize your summer compact. If you’re new to Seint, you’re about to learn how your ENTIRE makeup collection can fit in 1 compact, and have a flawless summer glow in 5 minutes!
1. PRIME YOUR SKIN
Priming is always a good idea- it gets your skin ready for whatever makeup you’re applying. Depending on your skin type, your priming method will change.
If you have DRY skin, you’ll want to moisturize well, then give it time to soak in. Our SEINT CREME is the best moisturizer I’ve ever found- just pat it on and let it absorb!
For OILY skin, skip the moisturizer before makeup, and use a primer. If you have seriously oily skin, my favorite is either ALL NIGHTER by Urban Decay or NYX MATTE FINISH.
For everyone else, my favorite is Seint SETTING SPRAY.
2. MODIFIED SUMMER HAC
Apply your normal 4-step Highlight and Contour (HAC): Highlight color under eyes, forehead and down the nose, and everywhere a beard or mustache would grow. Contour under cheekbones, around the edges of face, below jaw, and down the sides of your nose. Cheek/Lip color on the apples of cheeks and on lips. And Illuminator on the top of your cheekbones and under brow bones.

NOW FOR THE SUMMERTIME SECRET…Better coverage with less product!
Seint makeup is the lightest makeup I’ve ever used that gives me amazing coverage. But in the summertime, I want as light as possible. Enter- THE BUFF BRUSH…
With her perfectly dense bristles, she will give you an airbrushed finish with just the tiniest bit of makeup. There’s a good reason why we have a hard time keeping Buff in stock!

If you already use Seint makeup, keep in mind almost everyone will need to adjust the highlight color in the summertime. If you’re finding that your color isn’t looking as magical as it used to- you need to shade darker! Drop me a line and I’ll help you figure out your summer shade.
3. BRONZER and GLOW
This step is the key to a perfect summer glow. I used to use this REALLY expensive bronzer from Sephora. It was a great color, but after I started using Seint, I realized that applying a POWDER bronzer totally defeats the purpose.
The idea is to look like you’ve been in the sun- skin that has naturally tanned is not only bronzed but glowy and dewy. Not dry and powdery.
BELLA is Seint’s bronzer. Bella used alone is beautiful. Even her packaging is gorgeous! It is the PERFECT bronzer- never orange, and works with super pale skin and dark tones! Bella is meant to be applied with the fluffy end of the BLUSH + BRONZER BRUSH. Just tap onto the tin of BELLA, and swirl over your face.
UPDATE for 2022!!!! Seint now has FOUR Bronzers!!
TANLINES and BELLA for light to medium skin tones.
PALM for very pale to pale skin tones.
HEATWAVES for dark skin tones.
SHOP THE BRONZER BUNDLE- SAVE $11
If you want to really glow, and have that amazing golden beach-y glimmer, just pop a tin of GLOW ILLUMINATOR next to your bronzer in your compact, and tap the BLUSH + BRONZER BRUSH over both so you get a mix of GLOW and BELLA swirled over your face. GORGEOUS!!
4. GOLDEN EYES
You’ll want a lighter, neutral shade like CUPCAKE or SABRINA.
Then add in two glowy, golden midi shades, like BUBBA, GILDED, or YOU COMPLETE ME.
Finally you’ll want one darker color for smudging along your lashes as an eyeliner. I love RIGOLETTO.
The EYESHADOW BRUSH is perfect for applying eyeshadow and eyeliner.
Or for a super quick summer look, you can just smudge some BELLA or GLOW right on your eyelids for the perfect hint of color.
5. FINISH AND PERFECT
My favorite way to finish off summer makeup is with a light spray of SETTING SPRAY.
Even with oily skin, I think the best summer look is NO POWDER. If you get a little TOO shiny for your liking, try some blotting papers. I keep THESE in my purse because they have a cute little dispenser case and they work great!
