Bronzer
The key ingredient to achieving a sun-kissed glow? Bronzer. Infused with Vitamin E to soothe and hydrate the skin, our PS... Powder Bronzers include a compact mirror and mini brush that will help deliver a swipe of sunshine in seconds. For best results, apply it to places where the sun naturally hits (a.k.a. on the cheeks, nose, forehead and chin) in an upwards motion.
Mascara
The days of only wearing black mascara are officially over. Thanks to social media trends and red carpet moments, coloured lashes are everywhere and serving up some seriously statement looks. The latest mascara must-have? Burgundy. This rich hue enhances the warmth of brown eyes and gives a striking definition to blue and green tones — perfect for those all-important golden hour pics! Team with the matching burgundy eye crayon for a bronzed, cherry-brown look. Obsessed is an understatement.
Blush
The ultimate year-round essential, blush adds a just-back-from-the-beach glow that instantly brightens your complexion. Take notes on our new lip and cheek tints. Designed with travel in mind, our lightweight formulas deliver a sheer, long-lasting pop of colour that’s perfect for quick touch-ups. Dab onto your cheeks and lips after applying your foundation and lip balm and voila!
Lip masks
Tie your sun-kissed glam together with a glossy lip. Keep your lip base simple with a neutral or light pink lipstick before layering our new lip masks on top. Formulated with mango seed, murumuru and shea butter, it’ll leave your lips feeling super moisturised while serving up a glass-like finish. Team with a pink lip liner for a juicy, everyday look.
