For the Ladies: 10 Beauty Tips for the Summer



It is a fact: warmer days are ahead. To prepare for the long and lazy days of summer, here are 10 beauty tips to remember so that you can look your absolute best.


1. Summer hair


The summer is the best time to let your hair run wild and free. Also, curly hair is IN. Don't be afraid to go into the water for a swim. Also, it is best to wear your hair away from your face. You will feel less hot that way.

2. Moisturize

Instead of foundation, use tinted moisturizer. Before going out in the sun, be sure to wear sunscreen and lotions to keep your skin moisturized. Remember, sunscreen is NOT ONLY for your face. Use it on your chest, hands, and neck. You are going to need these things for your perfectly sun-kissed skin.


3. Minimal makeup

Usually, eyeliner and mascara will do the trick. If you need a fully made-up look, use eye shadow primer before applying that summer color on your eyes. Also, skip the pencil eyeliner and regular, runny mascara and use liquid eyeliner and waterproof mascara. Keep sticky lip gloss/lipstick to a minimum.


4. All bright everything

This is definitely a time to make a big wardrobe statement. Wear bright colors for everything: nails, clothes, shoes, and makeup. If you are scared to make a bright statement during the summer, here's a tip: you probably should.

5. Brighter hair colors

Keeping up with the bright color motif, if you are feeling adventurous, you can try to go for a brighter hair color. This is usually the time where many heads of hair will be a shade or two lighter than it was in the colder months.

6. Colored hair needs to be taken care of

If you are taking this risk, be sure to take care of your hair! Colored hair needs to be protected from the sun, and it needs to be conditioned regularly to make your brand new hair color last a bit longer.

7. Blush in demand

We all have that flushed look in the summer because of the warm (and sometimes unbearably hot weather). This is the perfect time to put your style to use. Use blush for your cheeks, so that you can look flushed but pretty at the same time.

8. Exercise

Remember, to work out regularly to keep your body well-toned and yourself in good shape. 30 minutes of physical activity every other day is a good start.

9. Drink lots of water

It will keep you hydrated throughout the day, and you will have clearer skin because of it. 8 to 10 glasses a day will do the trick.

10. Wear a swimsuit

It's the summer! You deserve to have some fun, right?

Kanye West Presents: Cruel Summer


Martin Louie the King Jr. is back at it again with his theatrical chops. His new short film Cruel Summer stars labelmate Kid Cudi as a "car thief that falls in love with a blind Arabian princess and goes on a quest for both her heart and her vision." Cudi's experience on his two seasons of How To Make It In America on HBO, and his own short film, MANIAC!, will finally come in handy, being that he plays the lead role. We can assume that his female co-star will be on the model-esque side. The movie debuted last week in the Planetarium of the American Museum of National History at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, where 'Ye had a pyramid-shaped, 7-screen pavilion built, with each screen being 17 x 17 feet. The viewing will seat 200 for the occasion. No expense is too much when it comes to this man's art. He continues to mix and master the film before officially releasing it as it contains a lot of new music, comparable to his 2010 project "Runaway." Looking forward to it.

Jordan Brand Tastes The Rainbow

Jordan Brand hasn't confirmed anything but if they do release this "Rainbow" Pack (which they already have samples of, especially during this summer), things could really heat up for sneaker heads in more ways than one. This unique take on some of Jordan's classic and more recent signatures could light up the eyes of many, but at what cost? With the increasing violence over sneakers in the last year, one has to take into consideration what something like this could mean. Depressingly negative facts aside, this fun footwear fad could prove harmless. Select shoes out of 26 from the Jordan number line will feature predominantly one color. Aside from white soles and accents on each sneaker, based on colors from the rainbow, it will be in a shiny, metallic tint that'll make them stand out in any crowd. Deal or no deal?

Derriere or a Nice Pair?

Beloved actress, repeated school girl fantasy, and wet-dream offender, Alison Brie, best known for her roles on Community and Mad Men, was interviewed on Conan last week. While it was a rather eccentric scene, the strangest part of the night was when she admitted to having a contest on Twitter with her followers to see who could tell the difference between her awesome cleavage and her Community co-star, Joel McHale's butt crack (pause), which she claims is "really high." I honestly can't tell.
