Summer has arrived and we’re ready to stash new beauty finds in our beach travel bags. We’re on the lookout for sun-kissed makeup look go-tos and hydarating products that can protect us from the heat. Here are some of the latest local beauty offerings completing our summer 2023.
Colourette Cosmetics’ Colourbalms
For its Got the Juice summer campaign, Colourette relaunches its tinted gloss balm collection called Colourbalms. The brand adds five new shades and switches out its tube packaging.
The Colourbalm now comes in a bottle with a thick doe foot applicator. You can choose from its OG shades Bikini, Cosmo, Morena, and Tropic or try out the equally juicy new arrivals Slushie, Sangria, Sand, Sundaze, and Syrup. Among the new shades, the cocoa nude Sand and icy pink Slushie are quickly becoming fan favorites. Those present at the launch even received their collection in a cute peach juice box packaging.
With its hydrating formula infused with the nourishing protective barrier of candelilla wax and soothing vitamin E, you won’t have to worry about chapped lips in this heat.
Dazzle Me’s Generation Dazzle Me Collection
The Generation Dazzle Me Collection, which dropped this year, is also filled with summer-ready treats. Dazzle Me’s Attack On Sun quick-absorbing hybrid sunscreen provides a lightweight radiant finish with an SPF 50 boost. You can pair it with the 24/7 Wonderfullip Serum to protect your lips too and keep them looking plump, nourished, and soft.
We’re also loving their Color-Chic liquid eyeliner that comes in four shades: Brown Town, r u REDish, Pink Punk, and WYD. It doesn’t smudge, transer, or fade throughout the day so you can also use it for body art on swimming days.
The brand is now also available at Watsons.
Chu Chü Beauty’s Heart Collection
Chu Chü Beauty’s latest Heart collection comes in, you’ve guessed it, pretty heart-shaped packaging. Their Heart Blush Duos come in three complementing pigmented combinations: modern pink Miss Dolly, sunkissed peach Pretty Betty, and nude brown Dear Lily.
They pair great with the Heart Lip Balms that come in six sheer shades. You can get 10 percent off on Heart Collection products until Apr. 6.
Issy & Co. Cosmetics’ Lip Bullets
Issy & Co. Cosmetics is serving a modern take on the classic bullet lipstick with its Lip Bullets. Available in 21 shades, they come in matte, satin and velvet finishes.
The bold and intense pigments of True Matte come in Brutal, Revenge, Opus, Saint, Fresco, Muse, and Renaissance.
The soft-focus finish of True Velvet comes in Motif, Decolete, Bisou, Ingénue, Beret, Pose, and Camp.
Last but not the least are the True Satin sheen of the shades Promenade, Ballroom, Beau, Nouveau, Rococo, Seraph, and Nudity.
We’re also loving the Lip Bullet’s gorgeous metal casing with a press to release mechanism and a built-in mirror for easy touch-ups.
Vice Cosmetics’ Soft Veil Tints
Vice Cosmetics has released their softest lip tint yet. The Soft Veil Tint is formulated with soft blur technology with a transfer-proof velvet matte finish. You can put it on as a tint or go for a full application for a stronger matte finish.
It comes in the shades Orchidding Me?, Mauve Over, The Serve, Pinched Pink, Peach Perfect, Maple Staple, and Cherry Bomb.
Get Ready With Me Cosmetics’ Summer Collection
Get Ready With Me Cosmetics’ 25-piece Summer Collection includes Browlift brow gel, Lip Booze hybrid lip mask and lip balm, Shady Sunstick contour and bronzer stick as well as the Glow Tint liquid highlighter.
If you’re looking to amp up your sunkissed look, check out the Shady Sunstick bronzers. The collection’s bronzer comes in the shades Coron, Siargao, Boracay, El Nido, and Alegria. They also go well with the Shady Sunstick contours that come in Ecru, Phoenix, Taupe, and Shady.
