April-July 2025: Makeup & Skincare Updates
18
items As the weather changes (and quite frankly, as I try new products), my makeup & skincare needs & likes updates! Here are my favorites going into the spring/summer season.
This cleanser has been incredible for me whether its fall, winter, spring or summer. It has an amazing texture and a little goes a long way. It's not exactly cheap but a good price point overall considering how long it lasts.
Tatcha The Rice Wash
A staple in my morning & nightly routine. It's super refreshing and does what it says it will. I've had my bottle for months and have hardly made a dent (and i'm quite generous in my application - I put it on my face, neck and chest).
TIRTIR Milk Skin Rice Toner
I have a lot of sunspots, some melasma and dark spots from old breakouts. This very affordable vitamin c serum has helped lighten my skin and is worth adding to your routine if you're wanting to brighten your overall complexion and fade dark spots.
Day Glow Vitamin C Serum - SeoulCeuticals
Salmon DNA with 3 different vitamins and hyaluronic acid … this has helped with my overall complexion and skin texture. This is very affordable when you consider the price of other serums!
PDRN Vita Toning Ampoule - Glass Skin
This is a newer addition to my routine so I'm not 100% sure of the results however, it does leave my under eyes feeling very hydrated and concealer goes on smoothly over it.
Revive Eye Serum : Ginseng + Retinal - Beauty of Joseon
This, hands down, is one of my favorite moisturizers I've ever used. The texture, how it melts into the skin and leaves me feeling moisturized all day.
Instant Angel Moisturizer | Lipid-Rich, Nourishing Face Cream | Dieux
I love this dermatologist tested night cream. I was using the Tatcha night cream but, at a whopping $95 a tub… I couldn't justify it when there are so many products on the market that do the job and are affordable. If your biggest concern is staying ...
Skin Renewing Night Cream - CeraVe
I spray this on morning and night (especially in the morning- I'm a side sleeper) and layer my body lotion over it.
Über Youth | Anti-Aging Skincare Collection | BEAUTY PIE
Hear me out. This Lanolin Nipple cream has done WONDERS for my dry, chapped lips and ALSO around my eyes when they are feeling dry and itchy.
Lanolin
There are only 4 shade options (one of them being non-tinted) of this sunscreen but I love it still. It does give a nice natural finish to the skin and I like to layer it with my other glowy sunscreen if I want that glass skin/ dewy look.
Anthelios Skincare | Broad Spectrum Sunscreen - La Roche-Posay
This gives the most INSANE glow to the skin… almost wet-like. I am obsessed with a glassy finish and this sunscreen continues to be one of my favorites. I've been mixing it with my La Roche sunscreen and it gives my skin a flawless look.
Sunscreen - Naturium
I have incredibly sparse, thin short lashes so i've never considered myself a mascara junkie. But this is why I feel confident telling you that this is one of the best mascaras i've ever used. It both lengthened and volumized my lashes.
Lash Idôle Flutter Extension Lengthening Mascara
I cannot recommend this product enough. I use it both as a lip stain AND a cheek stain because it gives the most beautiful, natural looking flush to my cheeks & my lips. If you're a low maintenance girlie and want a product that can do more than ...
Bitten Lip Tint | Victoria Beckham Beauty
This has been my go-to concealer for over a year and it will continue to be. This concealer is super hydrating and non-comedegenic.
Tower 28 Beauty Swipe Hydrating Serum Concealer
This is very affordable but also truly an incredible product. If you can't tell from the rest of this list… I love a dewy/ natural look and I personally find that a cream bronzer allows my natural skin to show through more than a powder bronzer does....
LYS Beauty No Limits Cream Bronzer Stick
Another product I have used for over a year and will continue to do so. The super natural but glowy effect this setting powder gives is exactly what I want in a powder. And it layers perfectly over makeup while also making everything staying put.
Kosas Cosmetics Cloud Set Setting Powder
I am such a huge fan of all NARS products and this setting spray is no exception. I like to use it whenever I use my go-to Kosas Cloud Setting powder.
Light Reflecting Setting Spray: All Day Hydration - NARS Cosmetics
As a reformed tanning bed goer, when the weather starts to get nice I immediately feel the urge to tan. The Dolce Glow tanning mouse gives my skin a very natural subtle color. Also, it doesn't smell horribly AND it dries down very quickly.
