The stars are out this summer in full force promoting music, movies and perfumes. Lately the likes of Katy Perry and Emma Watson have been spotted rocking a metallic eye. So we thought we’d give shining like the stars a try.
I always find it difficult to pin down my 5 most favourite products for any season since I tend to hoard and try everything, but there are certain essentials I can't live without when it's this hot outside:
We’ve talked a lot about sunscreen for your body, and for your children. But there’s one part of your body that we think you might be forgetting: your lips. Your lips can burn just as badly as the rest of you so don’t forget to use some SPF.
Mascara is an everyday staple for most women, there’s no denying that. But sometimes a little mascara and an eyelash curler just don’t cut it. False eyelashes, once reserved for Halloween costumes and dance recitals, have taken a turn for the better. Natural looking falsies are a quick way to transform from Pretty Betty (because there is no such thing as a Plain Jane) to red carpet ready...
Summer is a difficult time for me, beauty-wise. Between the sweating, humidity, and hair damage courtesy of sun, salt and chlorine, sometimes it's all I can do to keep up (and I'm kind of a low-maintenance girl to begin with).
It's this need for no-fuss never-fail products that keeps me reaching for a few of these summer beauty faves of mine:
There's something about the summer heat that makes me lazy every morning. Maybe it's that I'm in a hurry to enjoy the day. Maybe it's because I don't want to cake on too too much makeup if I'm going to sweat it all off by lunch. But the remedy for all that is the perfect cream blush. The silky formula of a cream blush adds a little freshness to dry summer skin, and it's...
When summer rolls around for those few months of the year, I tend to get a little lazy with my beauty routine. Maybe it's the heat that zaps my will to leave my bed in the morning, maybe it's that in the summer I don't have much spare time to get ready in the morning, maybe it's a combination of both that leaves me short on time and energy. But in the summer heat I like a good...
Summer is definitely not one of my favourite seasons: My hair frizzes and goes limp, my makeup always sweats off, if I try to wear more than a tank top or shorts I die of overheating. Somehow this year, I've been able to take the heat, maybe it's with all the products I've bought in the last month to prepare for impending heatwave doom? These are my five I-swear-these-work products...
Every summer has a different feel for me, and this summer has been all about pretty colours, playing with my makeup, and easy looks that don't take too much time—I am a busy lady after all! For right now, I am looking for products that I can go to without fail: A signature scent; long lasting, fun, colourful eye shadows; a quality blush; and a great looking gloss that fits in my clutch....
There are so many products I like it's hard to narrow it down to five, but here it is! Three of these products are great for summer since they either have SPF or are water/smudge proof. I'll be using all of these practically everyday this summer to stay looking my best.
