June is now well underway and a few days worth of sun is enough for me to be feeling extremely summery! Here's my list of summer essentials...
Bright lipstick- Nothing screams summer makeup like fuchsia pink or orange lips. My favourites at the moment are Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Pink Pong (right) (review here) and Rimmel Moisture Renew in In Love With Ginger (left). If you find the thought of a bright lipstick too daunting, try coloured lipglosses or balms.
Bronzer & Tans- My favourite self-tan is Dove Summer Glow body lotion - a natural, gradual tan. My favourite facial bronzer is Bourjois Bronzing Primer (review here). Having a tan makes me feel so much more healthy and happy too.
Dewy Foundation- Dewy skin is my all time favourite makeup look and although I keep my makeup dewy and fresh all year round, summer is the perfect time to try it out. For my base I use a liquid foundation applied with a Real Techniques buffing brush (what else?) and use YSL touche éclat under the eyes. I then use liquid highlighter on my cupids bow, chin, nose and cheek and brow bones.
SPF- Looking after your skin is so important. I always wear an SPF on my face whether it be in my foundation or my moisturiser. When it comes to sunbathing a minimum of SPF 15 is essential.
