Week four of our “Summer of Natural Love” makeup giveaway……see how to enter below!
“Makeup Transition” Tips by Christopher Drummond:
In Summer, Aymee wears #130 “Warm”. In Fall, she changes shades to #120 “Fair” in CDB’s Veludo Velvet Foundation
As much as we all hate to admit it, fall (and winter!) is almost here….which means we will all need to be making the big “Makeup Transition”.
Since your skin color will not be as “bronzed” as it it in the summer time, an adjustment will need to be made in your foundation color.
With CDB, you have the luxury of the Women’s Sample Kit which gives you three foundation colors, so you can go from one season to another, without having to buy a new shade.
The kit comes with everything you need to ease into the “Makeup Transition”…
Tips on how to switch your makeup from Summer To Fall:
Tip 1: Go one shade lighter with foundation for the transition. You probably won’t need it for a month or so, but it’s good to have it for when you start getting lighter.
Tip 2: Be sure to have Sol bronzer by CDB to aid in a smooth transition. Bronzer is your best friend in the Changeover.
Tip 3: You can always blend the lighter and darker shades together as a transition.
Tip 4: With foundation, it’s always better to go a little lighter than darker. Adjust the lightness with bronzer.
Tip 5: Use Saúde Pele Radiance booster to maintain luminosity in the skin, even when your skin is a little dull.
Tip 6: With eyeshadow, fall makeup is traditionally a little darker and sexier. Summer is generally brighter and more colorful. But don’t get boring! There are great dark colors that are rich and gorgeous (Amethyst by CDB is just one to try!)
Tip 7: Lips!…Generally lip color gets richer. Light red and burnt orange are great transition colors.

This just looks fantastic. i have a problem with Psoriasis and it has just in the last two weeks come up a little bit on my forehead. I am busily trying to find a makeup that will hide it, rather than show it up. Im very eager to give this a go

I would love to try this! I never considered getting different foundation shades for the summer and fall. I would love to have this kit to help me out with the transition though! Thanks. (I added you two on twitter, liked you two on facebook, and tweeted!)

I really do need this. I am a makeup addict and have yet to find the right match for my skin. Plus, I have so much redness in my skin that covering it takes an act of God.

I would love to try this. I have such a problem finding good makeup because I am so pale, that it is hard to make anything look natural. It either looks too dark or actually makes me look more pale.
