CRUSHING ON

"No makeup, makeup"

2018 is all about loving your natural self. The no makeup, makeup look is what you see in brands like Glossier, Milk, Urban Outfitters etc. The models for these companies typically are rocking dewy, glowy looking skin with a beautiful highlight, natural lashes, and a cream blush.

To achieve this look the key product is a skin tint, BB or CC cream. These give the face minimal coverage without looking cakey or noticeable that you're wearing anything at all. They give a really natural look by evening out discoloration in the skin and providing all skin types with hydration. Most BB or CC creams have SPF to protect the skin and are buildable so that everyone that doesn't have perfect skin can wear them.

These two products will change your everyday makeup routine in the best way;

1) ItCosmetics CC cream; "your skin but better", this color correcting cream is full coverage for people with lots of blemishes or rosacea, contains anti-aging properties, contains SPF 50, and comes in four shades. Retails for $38 at Sephora and Ulta. I love this because it makes the skin look lit from within while giving full coverage!

2) Tarte BB Tinted Moisturizer; this BB cream is perfect to throw on for days when you don't feel like wearing makeup but your skin needs a refresher. This BB cream provides light to medium buildable coverage, has SPF 20 however there is also an option without SPF, and retails for $36 on Tarte.com and at Sephora. I love it because the formula is super creamy and melts into the skin without looking cakey!
