Summer is almost over, but your glow doesn't have to ever end. Highlighting is huge right now (as it should be), but I find the problem to be that so many of us think that a glow starts and ends with it. When you take you make your skincare routine a priority, a lit from within look will come effortlessly. Moisturizing is key, and serums should be your best friend. Below are my favorite products that achieve that 'yes, I slept for a full 12 hours, didn't skip yoga and drank a fat green juice this morning' look.
Glossier Super Glow - This is a serum I use religiously. It honestly feels like a splash of water but after you pat it into your skin you feel the moisture immediately absorb. It's packed with Vitamin C and Magnesium which plumps and brightens skin. I always use this in the morning and at night before I moisturize.
MasqueBar Foaming O2 Bubble Cleanser - Whenever I use this I see an immediate difference in my skin. This cleanser brightens and exfoliates. It goes onto your skin as a serum and within 30 seconds oxygenates, which makes it a genuinely fun product to use. It has Lemon + Orange Extracts which are natural brighteners!
Wander Beauty On-The-Glow Bronzer - This puppy is another staple I can't live without. It's a dual ended bronzer and illuminator which is perfect for contouring for a night out or highlighting for a day friendly look. The illuminator side is great for cheek bones, cupid bow and brow bone. Tip: Use a clear balm and pat the illuminator on top for a completely non-sticky glossy look.
Charlotte Tilbury Healthy Glow: Tinted Moisturizer - No foundation necessary! Just blend this glow lotion into your face and you're ready to go.
Glossier Birthday Balm Dot Com - This has the most subtle hint of shimmer and the yummiest scent - birthday cake! I pat this into my pout but also use it on my eye lids or cheekbones. My favorite part about Balm Dot Com that a lot of people forget is that it's a skin salve not just a lip balm, making it designed for use all over!
Avatara Light Up Sheet Mask - I try to do this one at least once a week. It brightens and evens skin tone and will leave your skin feeling oh so full.
Cover FX Enhancer Drops - If you're looking for that intense glisten, this one is for you. This is a highlight I would mix into my foundation to give an even glow but you can definitely spot use it.
Lastly, water water WATERRRR
