I might not create the most dramatic of looks (even though I am totally admiring the makeup coming out of Cannes right now), but I have always loved playing around with makeup. That love has of course extended into the best new makeup launches this summer. I was always that friend who would help you create that gold smokey eye before prom or the perfect date night look. Even today I still do some of my closest friends makeup before special occasions. I think my love for all things makeup sprouted when I was a little girl and I would watch my mother get ready for parties. I loved watching how one product could be used so many different ways.
Most people assume that if you love makeup, you’re going to be creating intense, dramatic looks that require hundreds of steps but I disagree. My love for makeup is all about finding key products that I can use in many different ways that help me enhance my features in a natural way. I’m all about the quality over the quantity. With so many new makeup and beauty drops, it can be confusing and overwhelming to figure out what the real hero products of the season are. Luckily for you, I’ve had a chance to try a lot of them and I’ve shortlisted some of my favourites for this summer. Below you will find categories of products to suit every need. You can shop via the links, the carousel or by simply clicking on the product in the image! Neat right?
I can’t wait to see which ones you guys love as much as I do and if you have any more recommendations or questions, leave me a comment below!
CONCEALERS
I actually just did an entire post dedicated to my favourite concealers of all time, so if you’re looking for a great one check out my post here to read more about them, or shop them right here, right now.
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away Concealer
FOUNDATION, BB CREAM, ETC…
Everyone is always looking for something different from their everyday coverage. Some of you like a totally matte finish with full coverage, others prefer a lighter more natural look. Some of you want completely dewy. I am somewhere in the middle where I prefer the product to give me good coverage while still looking natural. Here are some of my favourites for this summer. The one thing all of these have in common is that none of them feel heavy or cakey on the skin.
Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue
Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter
BLUSH, BRONZER & HIGHLIGHTER
I’ve clumped this into one category because like I said, this is the best of the best. I’ve included a few options for different intensities! I find that these suit most skin tones, but especially suit skin tones like mine!
Bronzer
Chanel Liquid Bronzer (Put a few drops of this into your foundation for the ultimate glow)
Clarins Sunkissed Bronzing Duo
Blush
NARS Orgasm Blush (universally flattering!)
Anastasia Beverly Hills Cheek Trio
Highlighter
LIPS
Regardless of whether you are a matte girl, a glossy girl or somewhere in between, these are some of the nicest lip products out there to try. I love that some of these are also really nourishing for your lips like the NARS Orgasm Lip Balm and the Chanel Rouge Coco Flash
