You might have had a great time on your vacation to the tropics, but spending too much time under the sun may have left you with an icky sunburn. No one wants to be seen with a red tinge on her face, and with the right makeup, you don’t have to walk around with your souvenir from the sun.

First, use your bronzer to your advantage. Become Gorgeous claims that bronzer can be your best friend in a fight against a sunburn – the tint of the makeup can efficiently hide redness. Just be sure to evenly distribute it  over your face – not just on the burn – to create a flawless appearance.

Next, Daily Makeover encourages the use of a yellow-tinted powder to further hide any signs of redness from the sun. A loose powder can also be more comfortable on your skin as it recovers, unlike a cream formula.

Finally, make sure you take the proper preventative measures to keep your skin from suffering the wrath of the sun in the future. Many cosmetics now include SPF to help you maintain the health of your skin by protecting against ultraviolet rays.

Shayna Murphy is a beauty blogger from Amherst, Massachusetts, who can trace her love of beauty products back to the one afternoon when she convinced her grandmother to buy her lime green nail polish. She enjoys cooking (Indian-style dishes are a specialty!), is a bit of a history buff and collects antique milk vases. Shayna reports on the latest makeup, skincare and fashion trends and will try to convince you on a regular basis that yes, you really should wear sunscreen daily. My favorite beauty product is... - Anything containing sea salt. It's probably the most amazing exfoliant I've ever used and it leaves my skin feeling fresh and smoother than ever. Can't leave the house without my... - Lip gloss. The rest of the day can be a total bust, but if I have a great gloss on I feel like at least I've done one thing right! I would describe my style as... - Definitely au naturale. While I love exploring new shades of eyeshadow and liner on special occasions, for me the most important part of any beauty regimen is keeping my skin clear and blemish-free.
