Get a sun-kissed glow reminiscent of your favorite cup of coffee.

There's nothing quite like the look of a healthy tan, giving your skin that irresistible sun-kissed glow. Whether you're a beach bum or not, you can now achieve that coveted bronzed goddess appearance with the latest viral makeup trend—latte makeup. This summer look has taken the beauty world by storm, embraced by celebrities and adored by makeup enthusiasts worldwide.

What is Latte Makeup?

Latte makeup is all about bringing those warm, caramel hues to your face, recreating the glow you get after a relaxing day at the beach. The trend draws its inspiration from the "bronzed goddess" look, which has been a timeless favorite among Hollywood A-listers and Victoria’s Secret Angels. It's about embracing natural, earthy tones like caramel, tan, cocoa, and amber—colors that are reminiscent of your favorite cup of joe. Apply across your eyes, cheeks, and lips, making it perfect for the summer or whenever you want to radiate that "just came from the beach" or a “spent the summer in Europe” vibe.

How to Achieve the Latte Makeup Look

2. Create Those Sun-Kissed Eyes

Use warm brown hues on the outer lids, such as shades from Dasique's Sugar Brownie palette, and add a touch of gold shimmer to the inner corners. Blend the eyeshadow and line your lower lids with a dark brown eyeshadow for a sultry effect.

3. Embrace the Bronzer

Grab a cream bronzer or contour (I personally like to use Vice CosmeticsMultiganda One & Done Contour Stick) and apply it to your cheekbones, forehead, and jawline. Don't forget to blend it out for a seamless finish.

4. Conceal and Set

Use a concealer that matches your skin tone to cover under-eyes, the T-zone, around the nose, and the chin. Press it in with a damp beauty blender and set the concealed areas with powder.

5. No Blush, All Bronzer

Remember, there's no need for blush in this look. Use a non-creamy bronzer for the areas without concealer, using it as a setting powder, and apply it to your cheekbones. Patrick Ta has a Crème Contour & Powder Bronzer Duo palette in three shades that makes achieving the latte look a breeze, BTW.

6. Lips to Complete the Look

Line your lips with a nude lip liner and apply a clear lip gloss or oil, like Dazzle Me's Wonderfullip Serum , to achieve that natural lip finish. You could also take your favorite nude lip, dab it gently over your lips then lightly diffuse it with your finger.
