Step 1
Blow-dry hair — using no product — then apply a calming serum (Warren-Tricomi) and a couple of drops of finishing cream (like Warren-Tricomi Polishing Milk); distribute evenly with fingers, avoiding roots so you don’t weigh hair down.
Step 2
Use a medium-sized barrel curling iron set at medium heat. Take small sections (1.5 inches) of hair and wrap at a slant around the barrel; hold for a few seconds, release, and let cool. Work from the back of the head, starting at the nape and moving forward. Grab hair about an inch from the scalp so there’s a bit of slack (allowing you to twist around the barrel).
Step 3
Don’t use a lot of hairspray because, ultimately, the curl should relax a bit, as it would if you’d spent a day in the sun and surf. Finish with pomade — smear a little from the middle of the hair shaft to separate curls and alleviate frizz and flyaways.
Step 4
The philosophy is to look fresh; don’t use any tones that are far from your natural complexion. Use soft bronzer on cheeks and eyes, and go for peachy lips. Next, use shadow on brows to soften the tone. Contour eyes with natural tones and use a lightweight foundation (a tinted moisturizer like Laura Mercier works for daytime), but steer clear of sunscreens with titanium dioxide, which can make you look too pale, especially outdoors. Use a glowing moisturizer on the neck and décolletage.
