In the makeup world, summer signifies light-weight formulas, protection, staying power and a good fan. These beauties tick all the boxes.
PATRICK TA MAJOR HEADLINES DOUBLE-TAKE CRÈME & POWDER BLUSH DUO £30
A long-wearing cream and powder in one compact. Mine is in the shade Not Too Much, which is a perfect soft, rosey taupe, but there are several shades to choose from in both matte and satin finishes.
MERIT DAY GLOW HIGHLIGHTING BALM £28
I love this brand and this gorgeous balm is one of my favourite new finds. Micro-fine pearls reflect the light and illuminate skin without any sparkle. It’s moisturising, buildable and blends like a dream.
MALIN + GOETZ SPF 30 LIP BALM £16
Because we cannot have enough lip balms and this water-resistant mineral version is formulated with sun protection, perfect for sunny climes.
LOLA’S LASHES PRE-GLUED LASHES FROM £14
If , like me, the idea of glue near your eyes makes you feel queasy, this might just be the answer. These pre-glued fluttery delights sit underneath the lashes, can be applied in a jiffy and offer a five-day hold.
WUNDERBROW EYEBROW GEL £20
A super long-lasting tinted brow gel to shape, fill and set brows. It’s waterproof, smudge-proof and lasts up to three days.
HAND-HELD, PORTABLE, RECHARGEABLE FAN £20.96
Keep your cool in any situation. This little number comes with a stand and a wrist strap, has three speeds, a swivel head and charge level indicator.
RMS BEAUTY SUPERNATURAL RADIANCE TINTED SERUM WITH SPF30 £51
This unique lightweight formula gives a gorgeous sheer, natural glow and is packed with powerhouse ingredients to nourish and smooth the skin whilst boosting radiance.
