To me, July always signals the true start of summer beauty. As the weather has started heating up, it’s officially time to lighten up your beauty routine.
Think skin tints over full coverage, humidity-proof hair tricks, and scents that smell like sun-drenched skin.We’re now leaning into Hailey Bieber- approved glazed blush and pops of colour for festival season. As for summer nails, we’re ditching the spring pastel’s for fun mix-and-match design’s and bright, bold colours.
Now that holiday plans are in full swing, we’re also trying to find the best mini beauty products that will fit in our beach bag and carry-on’s.
From beachy waves to bronzed cheeks and SPF that doubles as skincare, here’s everything you need to survive (and thrive) in the heat- while still looking like that girl.
