Summer Beauty Must-Haves



Summer may not be officially here yet, but the warm weather certainly has us feeling like it. Just like our clothing wardrobes, our beauty "wardrobes" need an update for the Summer. The dark, rich colors that enchanted us through the winter are starting to feel too heavy and overdone. It's time to make way for a lighter hand and brighter colors. Here are a few of my favorite "Summer Must-Haves" to jump start your summer beauty routine!

1. Tarte Lipsurgence in Enchanted- A light moisturizing in a bright, summery color

2. Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palatte- The perfect summer bronzer, highlighter, and blush all in one palette. Everything you could possibly need for the perfect glowy summer look

3. Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray- Keep your makeup in place through the hottest summer days with a makeup setting spray. Bonus: keep it in the fridge for an extra refreshing spray.

4. L'oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Amber Rush- The perfect peachy shimmer to wear everywhere from BBQ's and the beach.

5. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner- Protect your perfect cat eye from smudges and surprise water fights with a waterproof liquid eyeliner in an easy to use pen.

Loreal One Sweep Eyeshadow

I received this product to try as a Buzz Agent in the natural look for brown eyes. Anyone who knows me knows i tend to buy high-end eyeshadows, but I'm also an eyeshadow fiend! Give me a new color, applicator, etc and I'm there! I was super excited to receive this product, because honestly, anything that can cut down my morning makeup routine.

I was slightly disappointed when I first used this product, it's definitely not a one sweep and done type product, especially since I'm used to a more professional, structured eye look. The initial application looks a bit streaky, but I love the color combo. Once I blended a bit with a fluffy brush it started looking much better. I received this in the natural eyes, and it certainly was that. The finished product was a soft brown & lavender, which pairs well with a natural brown eye liner. Overall it may not become my everyday eyeshadow routine, but it's definitely something I will keep on hand. My recommendation is to use this product for rushed/ lazy days & easy vacation looks. I would also like to try the playful look for brown eyes and see if it would work for an easy evening look.
