Spring to summer Clean Cosmetics picks
My three clean cosmetics makeup brands that I’m obsessed with for spring to summer. After a long winter hibernation, and a weirdly cold spring I am feeling the need for dewy skin and lots of color in my daily makeup routine. These Brands are tried in my daily ritual. Here’s whats important to know.
Ilia
They make a variety of foundation, concealer and tinted moisturizer with SPF shades. I know finding shades to match your skin tone when it comes to clean cosmetics can be VERY tough, and Ilia has a solution. You can pay a few dollars and have a sample card sent to try or you can consult with an expert on the site by uploading a photo of your lovely face for recommendations back on shades best to order. The return policy is very forgiving, so its worth a try. They offer lip oil’s and a must have highlighter powder . I love the water proof eye liner pencil for fun in the sun and water. !Ilia has a solid lineup of alllll the things. Try the cheek and lip tints they do double duty and are great for our on the go lifestyle.
Kosas Beauty
Everything about this brand is worth a try. It can be rare for clean cosmetics to have good staying power , and Kosas really delivers. The Revealer foundation and concealer duo is a big hit with me and now part of my everyday ritual of blend, illuminate and protect.
It does the heavy lifting of skincare by adding Peptides, Squalane, Hyaluronic Acid and Pro-Vitamin B5and among a few other skin loving things that magically blurs pores and fine line easily all while providing sun protection. Literally top rated and selling out fast. Many shades to find your perfect match. Also worth mentioning is the Lip Oil. This was a new arena for me, being a devoted lipstick wearer for years I made the switch to a more natural lip with some sheen very slowly. I despise a sticky gloss so I was skeptical about “oil” and am now a convert! Looks like lipstick will be for special occasions, and my lips are plumper and softer to boot!! My favorite is unhooked, a rosey nude.
Aether Beauty
If you love playing with curated eye shadow palettes, then Aether Beauty is for you! It’s quartz crystal charged, formulated with organic coconut oil and shea butter to have a smooth buttery texture, each palette comes with 12 complimentary colors. I love Desert Sunset for my springtime burst of color go to. Another favorite for looking sun kissed is the Desert Sky highlighting oil for face and body. Crushed Diamonds highlighter is my go to for a quick brush up of healthy glow and is on back order as of late. Also worth mentioning all palettes are Eco-friendly, fully recyclable and good for your face. The illumination is unmatched and is densely pigmented so a little goes a long way.
