NET-A-PORTER - Summer Makeup Recommendations

I like the beauty articles/recommendations that NET-A-PORTER publishes via email subscription and on their social pages. Some brands/products  that are new to me and interesting! 


They are known as a good resource for fashion and accessories, but I also think they are a reliable beauty resource.

 

THE BEST LIGHTWEIGHT MAKEUP FOR HOT SUMMER MONTHS

 

Makeup has a lot to contend with in the heat: warm skin, enlarged pores, sweat, sunscreen – but these products will go the distance

Rose Inc SoftLight Luminous Hydrating Concealer

Foundation has a hard time adhering to hot skin; it moves and invariably settles in dry patches and pores. So, swap your foundation for a  concealer – the right one will even out your skin tone, minimize redness and cover any imperfections without depositing a lot of pigment. This creamy, vitamin E-rich concealer is a favorite for the summer months because it hydrates skin and is easy to blend with just a finger. It’s also super-lightweight, so you can either wear it sparingly to disguise dark circles or build it up to a fuller coverage where needed.

Wander Beauty Wander Cushion Sponge

As Tik Tok hacks go, this one is excellent: the next time you go to use a makeup sponge, freeze it first. Applying your makeup – whether it’s foundation or concealer – with a frozen sponge creates the dewiest (not shiny) flawless finish, reduces the appearance of pores and cools over-warm skin. Just remember to dampen it before freezing. We like to use the Wander Cushion Sponge, with its combination of flat and curved surfaces that fit into every nook and cranny of the face

I don't need a lot of concealer and don't have any on today but I've been considering the Rose Inc concealer to go with my summer time favorite skin tint, the Rose Inc serum skin tint.  I hope it's as lightweight as this serum foundation.  @Chi-town girl I just purchased this on Rose Inc's website (LX 020 shade) for a a total of $22.50  The shipping was free and the product was on sale.  Sephora only has the dewy.  I think I'd rather have luminous than dewy.

My next visit to Nordstrom will include a stop at the La Mer counter. Hoping to score a tester/small vial of this tinted moisturizer that can also serve as concealer! 

 

La Mer The Radiant SkinTint Broad Spectrum SPF30

This tinted moisturizer is your hydrator, coverage and UV protection in one. It’s super-light on the skin, so it’s comfortable to wear even in the most humid of environments, and the formula contains the brand’s famed Miracle Broth, too – a potent ferment that protects pores. Also good: its sheer but buildable blend means you shouldn’t need to wear concealer

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip &Cheek Glow

Lipstick can bleed into the fine lines around your mouth when the weather heats up, which is why we love this clever two-in-one cream. It contains vitamin E to counteract the drying effects of UV, and it couldn’t be easier to apply: just pat the balm onto the center of your lips and above the apples of your cheeks for a long-wearing, low-maintenance hint of color. We love to press a tiny amount onto the center of the eyelids, too.

@Chi-town girl Thanks for posting this. I am excited to try the beauty sponge hack. What a great idea, it makes so much sense, especially for summer! Off to freeze my sponge!

@kathie66 - that does sound like a good hack! I don't think I've ever seen it posted/recommended here. I'm also going to try it

Re: NET-A-PORTER - Summer Makeup Recommendations

An interesting product - has anyone tried it?

 

Huda Beauty Legit Lashes Waterproof Mascara Topcoat

This is such a clever product to carry in your makeup bag, because it transforms every mascara into a waterproof formula without adding extra weight to your lashes. Apply your usual mascara to top and bottom lashes, allow it to dry for a moment, then coat the hairs in this clear, jelly-like formula.
