Let’s Face It

We all want an even glowing complexion.  bareMinerals, famous for their mineral foundation has come out with a new liquid foundation, bareSkin.  Made with the “bare minimum” amount of ingredients, it is applied with the innovative new perfecting face brush.  It’s so light on your skin, you’ll forget you’re wearing makeup; however, the new good-for-you formula consisting of lilac plant stem cells, vitamin C, and a coconut base, is both a tone-correcting foundation and a brightening serum!  Both their original powder foundation and new liquid formula blend smoothly, giving you a picture perfect, natural looking finish.  For consumers who have always shied away from bareMinerals in favor of the coverage that comes in a tube, bareSkin is for you.

Add that perfect sun-kissed bronze we’re all looking for with Guerlain’s Terracotta Sun Celebration Powder Compact.  This compact is like a bronzer and a blush all rolled into one.  Created to help celebrate the 30th anniversary of the first bronzer ever created, the Terrracotta Sun Celebration Powder Compact starts with a base of their best selling Terracotta, which is then infused with shades of corals and pinks to recreate that perfect flush you get from a little natural vitamin D.  A golden sun symbol sits in the middle of the compact to add just a touch of shimmer for the prefect bronze summer skin!

Give a Little Lip

Lighten up your summer look and add plenty of shine with gorgeous shades of pinks, corals, and watermelons from tart’s LipSurgence lip gloss collection.  To show your softer side, the soft mauve pink of blushing bride is a perfect option.  To really amp up the summer style, add a bright coral into your beauty routine such as tipsy, a sheer coral perfect for a day of summer fun.  For a bolder take on summer brights, true love might just be your newest obsession.  This watermelon shade feels flirty and fresh, perfect for any occasion.

The Eyes Have It

The warmer months are the best time to have a little fun with your makeup.  Ditch the traditional black liner for a colorful aqua.  Wink Eye Pencil by butter London in Holland Park is the perfect blue-green color with just a hint of shimmer.  The best part of this eyeliner is that it really lasts all day so you can feel confident that when you put it on in the morning, it will last well into the night!

For professional eye makeup at home, MAC Studio’s Sculpt Shade and Line may be your new best friend.  This three-in-one palette features two eyeshadows and one liner all in a teensy tiny pan, no bigger than a single eyeshadow.  While it won’t take up too much room in your makeup bag, it does deliver three different textures— matte, sparkle, and metallic allowing you to experiment and produce sculpted, 3D looks on par with your favorite magazine covers and advertisements.
