The trick to summer is really all about keeping your skin looking fresh as possible, says Linter.

Let the glow work for you.

Use cream or gel stick blushes and bronzers to give skin a healthy, luminous sheen.

And don’t forget tinted moisturizers to warm up skin tone and provide just enough sun-warmed color.

Choose primer that’s not too slick and be stingy about foundation.

Work in thin layers.

Christie Brinkley glows and does up eyes, adds glossy lips; Elizabeth Hurley in white pantsuit; Bette Midler gleams gorgeously.

Keep eyes and lips simple.Think easy and low-maintenance here.

A bonus: The skinny tip makes liner totally unnecessary.

If you’ve been blow-drying and flat-ironing smooth, relaxing or doing keratin for a straighter look stop.

Jennifer Lopez knows moisture plus makeup equal success; Nicole Kidman has cared for skin, for sure; Angela Bassett has a flawless-looking complexion… Wonder what’s her secret?

Step away from peer pressure and your past and get that high-maintenance hair idea out of your system.
