Wedding and prom season are just about here, so we’ve rounded up three looks for you to rock on your big day. Our step-by-step tutorials will guide you through each look so you can be your own pro makeup artist, and look absolutely radiant in photos (and IRL).

TRUFFLE BEAUTY LOOK

This season, no-makeup makeup is coming in hot. With a less-is-more approach and the right products, you can achieve a luminous, understated look that says ‘I woke up like this.’ Get a dewy, effortless summer makeup look that's all about radiant coverage, bronzed beauty, and glowing skin. Truffle Lip Caramel serves as a sultry, neutral focal point for the warm, shimmering metallics in this look. A super blendable primer is key for this look (think Snap-filter complexion), and radiant buildable glow that hits your face naturally for a subtle golden flush. Plus peachy nude lips are key. Glow on.

PINK GRAPEFRUIT BEAUTY LOOK

For classic bombshell, it’s all about luminizer and lip tint. This summer makeup beauty look hits the sweet spot between super flirty and au natural, and works with multi-dimensional, earthy tones that you can build for super natural contouring and on point highlights. Neutral tones, rosy shimmer, and emphasizing a naturally healthy glow sets the mood with a kissable hint of pink for lips and creamy, naturally flushed color for cheeks. This is a no-fail summer makeup or wedding look that works like a charm with flowy fabrics and chiffon. Slay.

BLOOD ORANGE SUMMER MAKEUP LOOK

This summer makeup look makes bold, classic beauty feel light and airy on skin, without sacrificing flawless coverage or statement impact. Going for high drama? Hitting this look is all about playing up your eyes and lips, and nailing the blushing, matte doll face. Start with a totally flawless base, so stick with medium to heavier coverage products that will leave you with a pristine canvas. This lets dark lined eyes and a punchy pout lead the way.
