Irish brands shine this summer
Are you ready for your summer glow up? Why not invest your beauty budget in some swoon worthy Irish brands?
A new glow up for your face comes to you courtesy of Bare by Vogue William’s Face Tanning Serums (€28). It's a self-tan and skincare all-in-one and has been specifically created with the face in mind. It offers the perfect mix of a truly efficacious skincare serum paired with sunless tan to deliver the ultimate glow.
The nourishing serum comes in three buildable shades - Light, Medium and Dark to suit all skin tones and develops into a sun-kissed glow in four-eight hours. Packed full of skin-boosting ingredients to deeply nourish the complexion this serum leaves you with a natural-looking, bronzed glow.
A must-have for glow-getters, it’s lightweight and saturated with hyaluronic acid and vitamin E.
This serum draws moisture into the skin, deeply penetrating the pores with intense hydration and also helps to even skin tone and minimise the appearance of pigmentation.
Have you seen the new range- True Beauty by MUA Aideen Kate? The products I have tried and tested are:
• True Lashes (€9.99) which is a light, fluffy set of false lashes designed to open the eye, accentuating natural beauty and completing every look.
• The Royal Blush Luxury Lip Trio (RRP €34.99) which contains a lipstick, lip liner and lip gloss.
AYU BB Cream (€28) is a lightweight, sheer BB face cream that corrects uneven skin tone and minimises the appearance of pores. Infused with hyaluronic acid, jojoba, aloe vera and vitamin E to hydrate and nourish your skin, this long wear mineral BB cream is buildable and gives a beautifully smooth finish.
It’s easy to apply. You can give yourself a sheer look or build it up by using a buffer foundation brush. I have tried it and it definitely gives a great, easy to wear, fresh look. It is suitable for all skin types.
KASH Beautys’ latest addition to their ever-expanding repertoire is new ultra-creamy, pigment-rich Satin Formula Lipsticks, which are packed with nourishing ingredients to protect and soften as they deliver a lightweight luxurious look - all for €14.95 each.
If you love a soft glamorous look then these are an amazing addition. Femme looks like an incredible option for a bride.
• Icon – A light beige nude shade, gives the perfect finish for a plump, neutral nude lip.
• Bare – A warm nude with peach undertones that add a gorgeous sheen to the lips.
• Femme – A muted blush with a super fine shimmer for an elegant sheen on the lips.
