How to look sun-kissed, without the sun

To achieve a naturally sun-kissed look, sweep bronzer on areas where the sun would naturally hit it, like the forehead, tip of the nose, top of the cheekbone and chin…Not all over! For best results use a large fluffy brush and apply in a downwards stroke to keep your base looking flawless.

Keeping your base in place is key at the races, so a concealer and pressed powder will save multiple mishaps and smudges thought the day. And as for your other essentials, think about what product is key to your look: vibrant lipstick or black eyeliner to re-line.
