Spring Beauty Picks
Dream Lip Oil by Summer Fridays
“Tinted lip oil is the perfect way to moisturize your lips while adding a subtle pop of color.”
Editor’s Notes
I absolutely love Summer Fridays’ Lip Oil, and it has become a staple in my beauty routine. This plush lip oil glides on so easily, providing a high-shine tint and deep hydration that leaves my lips feeling incredibly soft and smooth. The non-sticky formula is a game-changer; it nourishes my lips with a blend of nine moisturizing oils, ensuring they stay hydrated and supple all day long without any tackiness.
The sheer blush dreams tint is perfect for enhancing my natural lip color without being too overpowering. I also appreciate that it’s free of sulfates, parabens, and is vegan and cruelty-free.
Tanning Water by Salty Face
“Salty Face Tanning Water gives me a subtle glow that’s so radiant I skip the foundation.”
Editor’s Notes
I’ve been telling anyone who will listen about this Salty Face Tanning Water because it is that good. This set includes everything you need for an effortless and even tan: the Tanning Water for the face and body, the Mist Top so you can evenly mist your face, and the Tanning Brush for flawless blending. I’m pretty fair skinned so I use the light to medium. I like to apply it before bed so I wake up with an amazing glow. If you’re interested in this tanning mist, I highly recommend you invest in the whole set as the brush is perfect for blending and you don’t have to worry about the product staining your hands. I love how lightweight this formula is so it doesn’t clog my pores, which is a big plus for maintaining healthy skin.
Multi-Stick by Ilia
Editor’s Notes
When it comes to beauty, I need something quick and simple for my busy routine, so I’ve been on the hunt for a multi-tasking beauty product to use outside of my under-eye concealer and mascara. The Ilia multi-stick really answered the call, especially when I’m traveling. This product is easily buildable so when applying to cheeks and lips you can decide how intense you prefer the color. I usually add a quick layer to lips, two layers to my cheeks, and I’ll even dab a little on my eyelids to add a natural look of eyeshadow. The creamy formula is easy to apply and blend with just your fingers, making it hassle-free and perfect for a quick touch-up. Whether I want a natural or luminous finish, this Multi-Stick always delivers, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to simplify their beauty routine with a single, reliable product. I use the color Mauve Rose, but they have 12 different shades to find your perfect match.
Sunforgettable Sunscreen by Colorscience
“This sunscreen magically adapts to your skin tone for medium coverage and a healthy glow.”
Editor’s Notes
This sunscreen from Colorscience is so amazing, I couldn’t wait for the editor beauty round-up. Where do I start? If I had to describe this product in one word, it would be “magic.” Its ability to adapt to your natural skin tone creates a flawless glow while providing medium coverage to hide those pesky blemishes, making it so much more than just a sunscreen. The hydrating, antioxidant-rich formula keeps my skin feeling fresh, and its 100% chemical-free active ingredient paired with Broad Spectrum SPF 50 offers top-notch protection. I appreciate that it’s free from harmful ingredients like parabens, sulfates, and phthalates, and its water and sweat resistance makes it perfect for my active lifestyle. The medium coverage with a demi-matte finish gives a natural glow without looking greasy. This multi-tasking sunscreen is definitely worth the investment.
Gold Lust Palette by RÓEN
“I love bronze eyeshadow as we head into Summer – perfect for green or brown eyes.”
Editor’s Notes
The versatility of this palette is incredible. The shades are perfect for wearing alone or blending, layering, and mixing for endless looks. It’s my go-to for achieving an effortlessly glamorous look in minimal time. I usually steer clear of creamy and glittery eyeshadows, especially ones that require finger application, but this palette has completely won me over.
Out of the four shades, only one has the glitter formula, while the other three are more like reflective shimmers. The creamy texture blends so seamlessly, and just one swipe gives me a beautiful, multidimensional look.
If you’re on the fence about trying a Roen eyeshadow palette, I can’t recommend it enough. The beautiful shades, easy application, and stunning results make it a must-have in any makeup collection.
