We are in an epic heatwave right now, and I haven’t really gotten ready in what feels like forever. But I always feel better when I put a little effort into my makeup. The goal is just a fresh-faced, bronze goddess that just got back from vacation and magically looks flawless.
I will never ever skip SPF, and Every.Single.Face. by SuperGoop! is my current favorite. It has SPF 50 and is like the lightest moisturizer! Sinks right in. It is formulated for all skin types and doesn’t break me out at all.
If you want a little glow to the skin, Saie’s Glowy Super Gel is magical. It is a hybrid product that can be used under or over makeup and is literally like putting a water gel on your skin. SO SO thin and feels like nothing. With Vitamin K, Glycerin, and Rose Hip Oil, it hydrates and brightens the skin, all while leaving your skin glowing.
I always feel a little more together with some coverage, but I don’t need anything heavy. Just something to even things out a bit! Rare Beauty’s Tinted Moisturizer is a flexible base that just blurs imperfections and lets my natural skin peek through. It is buildable, but I find a light layer blended with my fingers is all I need on the hottest of days.
We need to talk about Charlotte Tilbury’s new Cream Bronzer. First of all, it is HUGE. You get so much product and the packaging is stunning. There are four shades, and I bought Medium. You can easily build it up, since it has good color payoff. A damp Beauty Blender is my favorite way to apply!
I never skip blush anymore. It wakes up my face and really gives my skin a youthful appearance. Cream and liquid blush is my jam, and Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer Blushes are like watercolor paints for your face. They are SOOOO pretty, beautifully sheer, and give you the most natural-looking flush. Don’t skip bringing it up on your temples!
When it is hot, I refuse to wear any mascara that isn’t tubing. I really struggle with smudging on my lids and under eyes, and Caliray’s To Hell or High Water mascara is my ride or die. It never leaves me with dark circles but also magically removes with just water. My stubby, short lashes always look lush and flirty, and it is super black. Cannot say enough good things about it!
