Instead of adding a full set of false lashes, just apply individual lashes to the outer edge. This creates a flirty, but not overdone, look. Image: istockphoto
No makeup look
The most popular makeup trend of the summer will certainly be the no makeup look. Even out your skin tone with a little tinted moisturizer. Just line your top lashes and add a touch of neutral eye shadow. This look is from the Tracy Reese Spring/Summer 2012 show at New York Fashion Week. Image credit: WENN
Bold brows
The fresh-faced look is in, but highlighted by bold brows. Pluck sparingly and add a little brow powder to get this coveted look from the Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2012 show at New York Fashion Week. Image credit: WENN

1920s glam
Certainly the movie Gatsby is having some influence in summer fashion and beauty. Try this glamorous 1920s look with dark — yet not overpowering — eyes and a stained lip. Image: istockphoto
Dramatic eyeliner
Dramatic eyeliner is hot this summer, whether you extend the black line for a cat-eye look, or use unusual shades instead — like red and yellow. Image: istockphoto
Pop of color
Pick one part of your face and accent it with a bold pop of color, keeping the rest of your makeup subtle and demure. Image: istockphoto
Shades of purple
Try to ignore the giant carrot sticking out of her head and look at her eyes. Shades of purple are hot for the summer. A dramatic sweep of violet eye shadow is all the makeup she needs. This look is from the Moschino Cheap & Chic Spring/Summer 2012 show at Fashion Week. Image credit: WENN
