Blush

This summer is all about Mauve, Berry, and Peachy tones. My favorite blush brands are Rhode, Merit, Saie, and Hourglass (powder).

I have tried almost all the Merit shades, but Cheeky is my favorite
Flush Balm Cream Blush - Cheeky

Foundation/SPF

Skin Tints are your best friend especially in the harsher, sunnier months. Please please please wear your SPF! My skin tone is cooler, fair toned with peach/pink undertones.

Say it with me: less is MORE. Make it sparkle and add an brown liner and I promise you you'll love how much your eyes still pop.
