Anything, basically, that catches the light when you bat your eyelashes.<\/p>\n<p>Reflective lids, like many of this summer\u2019s makeup trends, are \u201cdefined by finish rather than complexity,\u201d says New York-based makeup artist Christian Briceno, who spotted this trend on spring runways at Prada and Versace. That means you can get away with a swipe-and-go application and still have an impactful look. The only rule? \u201cKeep it minimal and placed,\u201d he says. It\u2019s not a rave; it&#8217;s a cocktail party on the Riviera.<\/p>\n<p>Briceno likes a metallic wash of RMS Beauty Eye Polish with a glossier product tapped onto the center of the lid (try a dab of Gucci Luminous Face and Lip Gloss, or About Face Vinyl Effect Eye Gloss). For more of a glittery shimmer, Los Angeles-based makeup artist Sarah Walsh likes Half Magic Glitterpuck Pressed Glitter or Urban Decay 24\/7 Moondust Glitter Eyeshadow.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Glowy body makeup<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"GroupCalloutWrapper-dilQaj jUFzGs callout callout--group callout--group-2\" data-testid=\"GroupCalloutWrapper\">\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-iJvQnD cOWUYC asset-embed callout--group-item callout--group-item-1\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-fnduJP iaVSwI asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-kFnjvc eKnjjD responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-jKunQM gjCCFj AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Closeup of Anok Yai with body makeup.\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\" src=\"https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa970e00cbc8c350ee1\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/body-makeup-getty2.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseText-fEwdHD CaptionCredit-cUgOGk foWpck hRFzlA caption__credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-iJvQnD cOWUYC asset-embed callout--group-item callout--group-item-2\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-fnduJP iaVSwI asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-kFnjvc eKnjjD responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-jKunQM gjCCFj AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Closeup of Tyla with body makeup.\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\" src=\"https:\/\/media.allure.com\/photos\/6a0c7fa864d4bac0dc9dd4b7\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/body-makeup-getty4.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseText-fEwdHD CaptionCredit-cUgOGk foWpck hRFzlA caption__credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Free the sideboob, the underboob, the cleavage, and the collarbone! After months of hibernation, they need a little glow-up. This year\u2019s warm-weather red carpets, including Cannes and the Met Gala, were a showcase for eye-catching lit-from-within skin. On one end of the spectrum, there was Tyla with painterly strokes of Y2K iridescent glitter; on the other, Blue Ivy or Tate McRae wearing a natural glow\u2014as if their skin always looks like this, even under a turtleneck, and they\u2019re just now sharing its radiance with us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe body is part of the canvas too,\u201d says Los Angeles-based makeup artist Ash K. Holm. For a glow that says, \u201cI\u2019m well hydrated and just walked out of a deep-tissue massage in Tahiti,\u201d mix an illuminating product like L\u2019Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Glotion into your body lotion or try a moisturizer-bronzer hybrid like Nars Manoi Body Oil. Says Holm, \u201cBody makeup looks best on hydrated, smooth skin.\u201d She also likes Patrick Ta Major Glow Balm, which can be buffed onto your decollete and arms as a highlighter. \u201cSet anything that touches fabric with a translucent powder or use a transfer-resistant body formula,\u201d Holm adds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If a Euphoria episode flaps its wings on HBO, it will inevitably butterfly-effect into a sparkly beauty frenzy.
