Must Have Products to Refresh Your Beauty Routine
Written By Rakhee Patel:
Every now and then, it’s important you give your beauty routine the refresh it needs. As a beauty blogger who tests out a lot of products, I have to admit that I am picky with my go-to's, but here are some of my favorite staple products to revive your current skincare & beauty regimen!
Peach and Lily Glass Skin Veil Mist
This product is truly glass skin in a bottle. It gives you the most beautiful healthy skin glow without making you look greasy or oily, and who doesn’t want fresh radiant skin? The best part is you can wear it on bare skin or on top of your makeup!
Innisfree Daily UV Defense Sunscreen
Sunscreen is our wrinkle cream and is an essential step in our daily skincare routine. As a brown girl, I understand the gripes of wearing sunscreen, which is why I recommend the Innisfree daily UV defense sunscreen. It doesn’t have a white cast or weird smell, it wears well under makeup, and it's fairly priced. Leave it to K Beauty brands to bless us with great skincare products!
Charlotte Tilbury, Superstar Lip
When I think of springtime makeup, I think fresh, glowy, and natural. The Charlotte Tilbury Superstar Lip is an amazing product. Coming from someone who has enough lip products to last a lifetime, I can confidently say this is a unique one and a must-have! It has the shine of a gloss with the staying power of lipstick - what more could you ask for? It gives your lips a beautiful, youthful look to them.
COSRX Moisturizers
Living here in Florida, it's either hot or really hot outside and I typically feel suffocated by my moisturizer the minute I step outside. That is, until I switched to COSRX’s moisturizers. My two favorites are the COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion and the CosRx Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream. These moisturizers sink into your skin, leaving it feeling supple without feeling heavy whatsoever; and they are perfect as we head into the warmer months. You will especially appreciate these if your skin tends to be on the oily side.
Nest Perfume Oil & Glossier You
Giving perfume recommendations can be tricky since it's such a personal preference but after the number of compliments I’ve gotten on these scents, I am confident they will be crowd favorites!
Nest Perfume Oil in the scent of Indian Jasmine smells divine. It's light, fresh, and feminine. Since it's a perfume oil it's way more concentrated than a typical perfume, which means the staying power is incredible. Roll on a bit to your pulse points and be prepared to be complimented by strangers!
Another great spring fragrance is You by Glossier. The cool thing about this perfume is that it’s created to compliment your own pheromones and enhance your natural smell - making it a universally flattering perfume. This is the only perfume I’ve purchased without smelling it first, purely based on reviews alone, and I never looked back.
