Summer Makeup Trends 2024: Fresh Looks with Summit Gate
Get ready to bask in the sunshine and embrace the vibrant energy of summer with the hottest makeup trends of 2024! This season is about creating fresh, luminous looks that enhance natural beauty. At Summit Gate, we're obsessed with these trends and have the perfect products to help you achieve them.
Effortless Soft Glam
Soft glam never goes out of style; this summer, it's all about achieving a dewy, natural finish. Start with a lightweight foundation that evens out your skin tone without looking cakey. Use a liquid highlighter with your foundation for a touch of radiance.
Now, let's get to the eyes! Use shimmery shades from our 16-color Eyeshadow Palette in neutral tones like pinks, peaches, and bronzes. Blend the colors seamlessly for a diffused effect. Here's a tip: Use a light shade all over your eyelid as a base, then apply a deeper shade in the crease to add definition. Don't forget a shimmer on your brow bone for an extra touch of glam.
Line your upper lash line with a kohl pencil for a soft, smudged effect. Finish your eye look off with a few coats of our Compelling Long Lash Mascara. This mascara is water-resistant smudge-proof, and will add dramatic volume and length to your lashes.
Opt for a soft pink blush like our Extravaganza Blush in a matte finish for your cheeks. Apply a light blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards towards your temples.
Keep your lips soft and hydrated with a nude or light pink gloss from our Dramatic Lip Gloss collection. This lip gloss is hydrating and non-sticky, making it perfect for summer weather.
Cool Blues
Blue eyeshadow is a major trend this summer, and it's a surprisingly versatile shade that can flatter various skin tones. Apply a shimmery blue shade from our 16-color Eyeshadow Palette all over your lid for a bolder look. If you prefer something more subtle, try using blue eyeliner or blending a blue eyeshadow into the crease of your eye.
Glazed Donut Blush
This playful trend is about creating a dewy, flushed look resembling a glazed donut. Apply a generous amount of our Extravaganza Blush in a cream or liquid formula to the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards towards your temples. Layer an iridescent highlighter on the blush for an extra glazed effect.
Ombré Lips

Ombré lips are making a comeback this summer, and they're a great way to add a touch of dimension to your pout. Apply a darker lip color to the outer edges of your lips and blend it inwards towards the center. You can use a lip liner to create a crisp outline before applying lipstick or gloss. Our Dramatic Lip Gloss collection comes in various shades, perfect for creating a subtle ombré effect for a summer look.
The 90s Reign Supreme
The 90s are back in a big way, including makeup trends! Think matte lips, brown lipstick, and thin eyebrows (though we recommend keeping your brows natural this summer). For a 90s-inspired lip, try a matte brown shade from our Dramatic Lip Gloss collection. Apply the gloss directly to your lips, or use a lip liner to define your shape first.
C-Sculpting
C-sculpting is a contouring technique that originated in Asia. It involves using makeup to create a subtle "C" shape on the sides of your face to highlight your cheekbones and jawline. To achieve this look, use a contour shade two to three shades darker than your foundation. Apply the contour product in a C-shape starting at the top of your temples, bringing it down towards your cheekbones and down along your jawline. Blend the contour product seamlessly so that it looks natural.
Elevated Lashes
Lashes are always a key part of any summer makeup look. This season, it's all about achieving long, voluminous lashes that will flutter with every blink. Our Compelling Long Lash Mascara is the perfect product to help you achieve this look. This mascara is formulated to add volume, length, and definition to your lashes without smudging or flaking.

- Use a primer before applying your makeup to help it last longer.
- Blot your face with blotting papers throughout the day to absorb excess oil.
- Reapply your lip gloss or lipstick as needed.
With these tips and tricks, you can create stunning summer makeup looks that last all day. So get creative, have fun, and enjoy the sunshine.
