With the warmer weather, I have added in more summery makeup into my routine. I've been loving glowing skin and bronzy makeup. I have also been choosing long-wearing products that can stand up to the outdoors. So here's my favorite and most-used products for the month of June!
- Caress Tahitian Renewal Exfoliating Body Wash, $2.97 for 18 oz
- This body wash smells so amazing! It makes me feel like I'm at the beach. It contains pomegranate seed and Tahitian palm milk. It gently exfoliates and is moisturizing. Some fragranced body washes irritate my sensitive skin, but I don't have any issues with this one.
- Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy Nail Enamel in Wild Card, $7.99
- Although it takes a little bit of time to get used to applying with the thick brush, this nail polish dries quickly and holds up very well. Even though it says that you don't need to apply a base coat, I still did. I used the OPI base coat and top coat. I applied 2 coats of the polish. It lasted for a good 7 days with tip-wear only on my index finger. I was quite impressed and the color is so perfect for summer.
- Garnier BB Cream Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector for Combination to Oily Skin in Light/Medium, $11.04
- This BB cream provides light to medium coverage and dries to a soft-matte finish. I apply it with a damp beauty blender. I like it for summer because it feels light on my skin, has SPF 20, and helps control shine. It will emphasize dry patches, so I don't recommend it for dry skin types.
- MAC Woodwinked Eye Shadow, $15
- Woodwinked is a veluxe pearl formula and is described as a warm, antique gold. I apply it all over the eyelid and up into the crease. It's a quick and easy summer eye look.
- Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper, $18
- This is the easiest liquid eyeliner I have found to apply. I like a thin line with a slight wing at the corner, and this eyeliner cuts down the time it used to take me to achieve this look. I am not the best with liquid liner, but I am getting better with practice. It is super black and does not smudge throughout the day. I love that it has a tiny brush tip, rather than the traditional felt tip.
- Benefit They're Real! Mascara, $23
- This is described as "a jet-black mascara that lengthens, curls, volumizes, lifts, and separates." It has a plastic brush and defines and separates my lashes to really make them stand out. It performs like a waterproof formula for me and doesn't transfer.
- Revlon Colorstay Moisture Stain in Barcelona Nights, $9.99
- This lip stain applies glossy, but as it wears it leaves behind a beautiful bright pink stain. This is the perfect summer lip color. I love that it leaves behind color so that I do not have to reapply often. It contains vitamin E and aloe and is not as drying as other lip stains that I have used.
