FOTD: Summer Shimmer

I haven't done a Face of the Day in a long time so I thought I would post one today.  It's nothing too exciting, as I've been wearing very little makeup lately.  It's absurdly hot and humid here in Florida and my makeup tends to just melt off so this is one of several light makeup looks I've been wearing a lot lately.  My hair is also something I've been sporting often as of late.  It's just two loose braids with some face framing pieces left out in front.  I used a one inch curling iron and wrapped the front sections around the iron (did not use the clamp) for a few seconds to give them some texture.  Low maintenance and still cute!  Hope you like the look!
