Simply Sexy Saturday: Ciara—Natural Golden Glow

Earlier this year, Ciara joined the ranks of CeleBeauties with "Blond Ambition"—Beyoncé, Keri Hilson, and Mary J., to mention a few. Amazingly enough, this bronzed beauty rocks blond hair with her signature part down the middle quite well.  What's even more amazing is that Ciara's blond hair down-to-there does not in any way detract from her natural beauty.

Ciara was photographed back in June leaving The Ivy restaurant in Los Angeles without the de rigueur makeup of most CeleBeauties. Her natural glow is amazing, and makes for a perfect Simply Sexy Saturday makeup look. Though the glow-bestowing summer season is long gone, you can still look the part of a sun-kissed goddess with a tinted moisturizer, gel bronzer, luminizer, and nude lip! Ciara's next-to-nothing makeup look is easy to replicate with 4 simple steps.

 

Get Ciara's "natural" glowing makeup look:

 

1.  Flawless, Radiant Face

Try: NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 $42

Apply tinted moisturizer over entire face for even coverage, SPF, and a hint of radiance.

A lightweight tinted moisturizer that evens skin tone and provides a translucent veil of protection. 

2.  Bronzed Cheeks

Try: Perfekt Per-fekt Beauty Skin Perfection Cheek Perfection Gel—Bronzed $28

Keep your glow natural looking and bronzed by applying a gel bronzer that sculpts and defines your cheeks.

A tinted cheek perfector that instantly "per-fekts" and enhances the appearance of the cheeks offering an alternative to traditional cream or powder blushes, bronzer, and cheek stains.

3.  Gorgeous Glow

Try: Illamasqua—Glimmer – golden tan $20

Add extra radiance and illumination to your skin by applying a luminizer to highlight the high points of your face—tops of cheeks, center of nose and forehead.

A multipurpose illuminator.

4.  Natural Looking Lips

Try: Bite Lush Lip Tint in Lychee $24

Finish off your face with a natural-looking nude lip. A moisturizing lipstick does double duty, hydrating while providing a subtle pop of color.

A revolutionary lip tint formula that delivers luscious color with an ultra-glossy finish.
