Introducing Shine's Beauty Gurus! (With a few tips on staying cool when the weather is killer hot)
A couple of months ago we here at Shine Fashion+Beauty held a contest. We were looking for a handful of smart, interesting, talented women to write about a topic that's not always so smart and interesting. We wanted Beauty Gurus, ladies who were real-life knowledgeable about cosmetics and hair issues and skincare and could give all of us solid, honest practical advice.
We announced the winners on July 10th and, since then, these new bloggers have completed their first assignment.
It's on one of my favorite topics: Dealing with the grossness of summer. I asked our gurus, "What's your favorite summer beauty trick?"
Check out their posts below. Start feeling less summer-disgusting immediately.
