With the warmer weather right around the corner, it’s time to upgrade your makeup to suit the beauty of spring. These are my top five favorite beauty products that I enjoy using when the sun comes out more often.
- Drunk Elephant Bronzing Drops
One of my favorite products to use for glowy skin is the Drunk Elephant’s Bronzing Drops. These drops are perfect to mix with any moisturizer and they give your face this glowy, tan and even complexion. On days where I am strolling at the park or tanning at the beach, I love using these drops to replace concealer and foundation. The Drunk Elephant drops are pricey, but there are so many amazing dupes that are a lot cheaper, such as the L’Oreal True Match Glotion.
- E.L.F Skin Whoa Glow Tinted Sunscreen
I am absolutely in love with e.l.f products, but my favorite one has to be their tinted sunscreen. Not only is this a sunscreen, but it also doubles as a primer and provides light coverage. They have a couple different shades available and even offer this product as a travel size. As a girl with super oily skin, this sunscreen did not make my face look shiny and protected my face from getting burned. If you want to layer other products on top of this sunscreen, there will be no separation, which is even better in my book.
- Maybelline Sky High Waterproof Mascara
I have nothing awful to say about this mascara. First, it really helps with length and volume, especially if you don’t have very full lashes like me. I love how their mascara comes in a variety of colors including brown and some shades of black. They also have a special waterproof version which really does stay on your face when you hit water. If you are heading to the beach or pool, make sure to grab one of these.
- E.L.F Stay All Day Setting Spray
Let’s face it, sweat is our biggest enemy when we are wearing makeup. It completely separates our makeup and makes our faces very oily. However, this setting spray from e.l.f was such a life saver. It helped my makeup stay on my face all day, even on days where I am outside sweating to death. I would definitely keep one of these in your beach bag, you’ll thank me later.
- Benefit Benetint
Want a blush that will stay on all day? You should try Benefit’s Benetint. This tint for your cheeks and lips will stay on all day and not budge. I will say, this product took a while getting used to, mainly because you have to blend it out quickly before it dries on your cheeks, or else it will look streaky. Once you get used to that, you’ll come to love this blush. It gives you this nice sun kissed look and will stay on no matter if you are jumping in the ocean or pool.
I hope you give these products a chance and test them out for yourselves! With the warmer weather up ahead, refreshing your makeup to suit the warmth and humidity of the season will give you the glowiest complexion of all time, just in time for summer!
