Get LC's Summer Look for a Steal or a Song

This month, Lauren Conrad graces the cover of Cosmo. Promoting her new book and fashion line for Kohl's, the young socialite is all about California Chic. No matter what you think of former Hills star, one thing is for sure: the girl has great summer style.

Want to get that look without a full-time makeup artist? Here's how to do it for a steal. I found money-saving deals on top brand products that can give you this look. Then, if you want the look for less, I offer alternatives for a song--the whole look for around $30.

For a Steal

Lauren's look is dewy and golden with dramatic cat eyes. For that even, fresh look, start with a tinted moisturizer, like Estee Lauder Day Wear Plus Multiprotection Tinted Moisturizer.

Next add bronzer and highlighter to make your face glow. Pick up Hoola Bronzer from Benefit as well as High Beam. Lauren's lips are a golden peach, so grab a Lip Gloss in Zone Out, and you're qualified for free shipping from Benefit with this code.

A pop of blush gives LC that flushed-from-too-much-shopping look. Try Fresh Bloom Allover Colour from Clinique. Get your Clinique free deluxe sample of lip gloss with your purchase to give your lips a shine.

Lauren's signature is her cat eyes. There's a palette from Stilla, a $96 value for just $45 called "Purrfect Eyes: The Talking Palette" which is perfect for creating this look. Look for it at Sephora, and use this deal for Sephora free shipping.

Another option for LC's look awaits you at Beauty.com: "Stila's Gift of Glamour," a set that includes tinted moisturizer, perfect peachy/gold eye shadow, mascara and more. Use this deal to save $10 off $60.

Now let's say you share Lauren Conrad's aesthetic sensibility, but not her trust fund. Here's how to get the whole look for less than $30:

For a Song

Head over to Drugstore.com and pick up Kiss My Face Tinted Moisturizer in the color best for you ($7.49 on sale). Grab CoverGirl LashBlash and WetSlicks Lip Gloss in Tangerine Splash. They have a BOGO offer, so both will run you just $7.65. Pick up a few more summer essentials and save $5 on $30.

The head to Ulta and pickup L'Oreal True Match Blendable Blush in Soft Sun ($8.99).

Visit e.l.f. for the eyes. Create a custom eye palette with Pink Ice and Moondust (both $1). Get the Waterproof Eyeliner Pen ($1) for those cat eyes. Also pick up the Bronzed Mineral Glow ($8) for bronzing and highlighting. Use this code to save 25% on your order.

This whole look costs around $30.

Now that you're equipped with your summer beauty arsenal, here is a helpful tutorial from makeup artist Kandee Johnson about how to put this look together:
