Step 2: Apply makeup
Before applying makeup, start with a primer like Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Luminizing Face Primer, $9.99 to help your makeup better adhere to your skin. Next, apply foundation if you need it. For a "naturally" flawless finish apply a mineral powder like Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation, $12 to even out your skin tone.

Next: Get glowing

Step 3: Add your glow
Skip the products that contain a ton of shimmer because they tend to make your cheeks look oily within a couple of hours. Instead, go with a matte bronzer that is about one to two shades darker than your skin tone (try Physicians Formula Baked Pyramid Matte Bronzer, $11.95). Brush it onto your forehead, nose, cheeks and chin -- all the spots where the sun would naturally tan your face. Next, apply a blush in a peach-tone (for a hint of natural color) like Covergirl Cheekers Blush in Pretty Peach, $4 to the apples of your cheeks.

Next: Make eyes and lips shine

Step 4: Make eyes and lips shine
The finishing touches to this look are the easiest. First, apply a nude lipstick like Maybelline New York Moisture Extreme Lipcolor in Born With It, $5.29 to give lips a touch of color and shine. Then, finish off your eyes with a couple of coats of mascara (try N.Y.C New York Color Thickening Mascara, $1.44).

Trend: Casual, yet elegant bun

Step 1: Prep hair
This look is actually quite easy to pull off. After washing hair with a shampoo and conditioner like Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions Frizzy to Smooth Shampoo, $5.97 and Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions Frizzy to Smooth Conditioner, $5.97, apply curl boosting gel or mousse like L'Or�al Paris Vive Pro Glossy Style Glossy Curls Spray Gel, $4.99. If your hair is stick straight, it should still add some texture to your hair. Then either let hair air dry or use a diffuser and blow dry.

Next: Secure hair back

Summer, summer, summertime � yup, the season of sun is finally upon us. That means it's time for long days spent at the beach, vacation, and a few fresh hair and makeup looks. This summer the trends are flawless, bronzed skin, no-fuss braided buns and shiny aqua hues for your eyes. So read on to learn how to recreate these three trends -- all with products found at your local Walmart store (pretty nifty, huh?).
