HELLO! It's transition time from Spring to Summer! During this lovely period I have fallen in love with some products about which I'm gonna talk about today!
First it's the limited edition Sleek Sparkle palette [released last Christmas]! It has glitter particles in them which sadly tend to fall off on application, but then I don't care much about it because what I really love in this is the crazy pigmentation and vibrant shades which hold on pretty well even on the greasiest eyelids! This palette is not sold anymore in stores and you would be lucky if you found it in websites such as ebay and recommend you grab them while you can!
Most of the shades in this palette are matte, except the gold and silver ones which have a pearly finish to them. Look how pigmented the swatches look without any base underneath!
Next up is Stop Shining Shine Corrector from Make Up For Ever which I use as a Skin Mattifying agent, especially during summertime when my skin turns oilier than usual and I struggle to achieve a shine free look! As much I love blotting papers for on go touch ups I still use the Shine corrector underneath my foundation to stay grease free for a longer time!
I think It's a worthy product to consider for those who have an oily/ combination skin and want to retain a matte look for longer!
Continuing on with products I have fallen in love with is the Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer! Though not being a big fan of full coverage foundation during spring/summertime as the foundation melts away due to the heat making me look patchy and uneven, the Stilla is my preferred choice during this time, with an SPF of 15 for sun protection, it provides light coverage which blends beautifully giving my skin a radiant glow while keeping me well moisturized during the crazy dry weather! I use the lightest one as it's very forgiving and doesn't look odd on my NC 25-30 skintone.
Another love, about which I have already spoken about in an earlier post is the Lord and Berry Lip crayon, a versatile and perfect product for everyday use! It's a highly pigmented pencil and I don't need a separate lip liner or brush as it's so easy to apply!
The shade here is Earth - a warm brownish peachy colour and for me, it's so 'in' for summer!
And finally it's the Dermalogica Suncreen about which I won't tell anything now as I am going soon post a review about it!
What are your top picks for this Spring/Summer?
