Laced with light-scattering pigments to help you look lit-from-within, lemon-derived vitamin C works to brighten while scavenging damaging radicals, while sea kelp delivers long-lasting hydration for skin that looks visibly smooth, firm and radiant.DOLPHIN SKINConveniently packed in a portable compact and coming in five versatile shades (with ‘Clear’ offering its services to all skin tones) the {Dew Wet Balm} from Danessa Myricks lends a ‘glass skin’ finish while treating skin to a bunch of nourishing and hydrating ingredients.Lightweight and translucent, the Dew Wet Balm offers lustrous luminance in the form of a balm-like texture that uses skin-healing jojoba oil to instantly bring dry, cakey make up back from the brink – breathing on it with new life. Working to hydrate and highlight – even when used on top of powder formulas – the Dew Wet Balm is easy to apply (simply dab on with a finger) and effortlessly highlights the high points of your face with a natural, fresh-looking dew.JUST-PINCHEDA weather-flushed blush in a bottle, Saie’s {Dew Blush} is a creamy and dew-boosting water-based gel that boasts skin-loving ingredients to beautify your skin instantly and over time.With a soft doe foot applicator, applying this weightless and comfortable formula is effortlessly easy – simply dab onto cheeks and blend with your fingers – whether you prefer a subtle tint or an intense, rich pop of colour. Buildable and buttery, the tint seamlessly melts into skin, giving you a lit-from-within glow that doesn’t look fake, streaky or patchy. A cocktail of mulberry extract, elderberry and evening primrose also works to (*takes deep breath*) brighten, moisturise, refine, nourish, soothe and protect skin from environmental aggressors. Available in four juicy shades ranging from nude peach to deep berry pink, choose between ‘Peachy’, ‘Rosy’, ‘Poppy’ and ‘Dreamy’. POWDER PERFECTHoused in a stunning, 3D floral compact, Chantecaille's {Flower Power Perfect Blur Finishing Powder} is an ultra-fine, instant blurring powder that smoothes and perfects the complexion.Available in two shades, 'Light/Medium' and 'Medium/Deep', the weightless finishing formula helps skin appear softly filtered and flawless. A long-lasting, gel-powder is infused with innovative optically correcting and blurring spheres to filter out imperfections on the skin. This ultimate soft-focus blurring powder is utterly weightless and invisible on the skin. It glides on feather-light and infuses the skin with translucent radiance. 100% translucent on all skin tones, this completely weightless perfect powder applies without any white or grey cast on the skin, while neutralising any redness or imperfections. SUN-KISSEDSculpt, define and highlight with Patrick Ta’s {Major Sculpt Crème & Powder Bronzer Duo}, which pairs a dewy cream with a finely milled powder to chisel your cheekbones and amplify shadows for subtle, believable depth.Diffusing with ease for the most realistic effect, the textures are beautifully buildable – catching the light with a chic, balmy finish when swept along cheeks, lids or brow bones, or lending matte, olive-toned depth to your hollows to bring out your beautiful bone structure. Completely customisable and versatile, the textures are readily layered – making it easy to dial up the drama – and can be used to bestow a post-holiday glow, or strategically placed to exaggerate, streamline or help you look stunningly sunkissed.PIGMENT PACKEDDelivering weightless and buildable colour that causes flaws to literally vanish, the pore-perfecting {Vanish Blush Stick} from Hourglass blends seamlessly with a cream-to-powder formula that looks effortlessly natural on skin.Silky, smooth and easy to apply, this twist-up stick allows you to personalise your blush – whether you prefer a bright pop of colour (use with a foundation brush if so), a slightly more subtle look (opt for a blush brush) or a light stain (use your fingers and gently pat). Working to blur the look of pores with a clever blend of emollients and protective antioxidants, this 100% vegan and cruelty-free blush even boasts a unique triangular bullet to hug the contours of your cheeks – allowing for precise application and detail. Conditioning, hydrating and comfortable, you’ll want one in every colour – from ‘Adore’ (a vibrant berry) to ‘Wonder’ (a soft peach) and everything in between…SHOP MAKE UP >>
