As always, prep the skin with your favorite serums and SPF. To achieve a bronzy just-got-back-from-vacation look, add a few bronzing drops directly onto the skin and massage the product thoroughly. This will give your skin a stunning base and glow. Skip the heavy foundation and use a hydrating concealer such as Kulfi Beauty’s for any areas that need a little love.

“Tomato girl makeup” look is all about the blush. Celebrity makeup artist Kasey Spickard says, “Start by warming up a red-toned cream blush on the back of your hand. You want something with sheer coverage and balmy texture,” she explains. “Use the base of your beauty sponge or ring finger to dip into the product and place the formula on the back of your hand. Then, with a light tapping motion, apply to the apples of the cheeks, along the nose bridge, and a dash on the top of the forehead. Think wherever the sun would naturally hit your face.” Consider using Kindred Black’s natural buildable lip and cheek color in Devil’s Playground—this classic cherry shade is universally flattering on all skin tones. If you want to punch up the color, use Yolaine Paris’s Mousse de Rouge Garance whipped lip and cheek product. It has a matte and velvet finish, which applies smoothly.

For the eyes, keep it subtle with a shimmery eyeshadow by Kiko Milano. The golden beige, this pretty hue can also work as a highlighter on areas you want to add more glow. Add a few coats of Valentino Beauty’s volumizing mascara to further enhance your eyes.

Lastly, to complete and fully embrace the “tomato girl makeup” look, match your lips to the blush with a tomato red hue. If you prefer using a lip liner, try the 19/99 Precision Colour Pencil in Voros—it’s easily blendable after you line your lips. To add a more stained look to your lips, use Peripera’s Ink Airy Velvet Lip Tint in shade Red Only. This formula leaves your lips hydrated without looking too glossy or wet.

Once you’ve finalized this simple and romantic “tomato girl makeup” look, pour yourself a glass of vino, turn on Frank Sinatra radio, and savor the delightful la dolce vita way of life, no matter your location.
