Happy Tuesday! We are currently in Mexico with our mom to celebrate our 27th birthday tomorrow! We are actually trying to take some much-needed time off this week, so we are *trying* to post less, and really be present, so in case you all are wondering why our posts have slowed down this week ;) Since we are in full summer mode, and your makeup literally sweats and melts off the second you step outside, we wanted to share some of our beauty must-haves that stay on in this heat, and are also lightweight enough to wear in humidity! We both don’t wear a ton of makeup to begin with, so we try to keep it pretty light and natural looking. One of our favorite is this Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment with SPF 15 in ‘Tulip’. We love it because it has a light tint, so it is great for every day, and it also moisturizes and protects your lips from the sun.
As far as a base layer, we ALWAYS use sunscreen every single day. We love this Supergoop ‘Everyday’ SPF50 because it goes on smooth and doesn’t have a strong scent!
To prime our face before foundation, we will usually use this Laura Mercier Radiance Foundation Primer. You can use it under foundation or with some tinted moisturizer. We love that it gives you a radiant glow for summer, and also helps your makeup go on smoother and last all day long!
For foundation, we will either use this Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation or Bare Minerals Original Foundation SPF 15 (feels super lightweight!) . We love that the Charlotte Tilbury foundation lasts up to 18 hours and has SPF 15.
We also use this Laura Mercier Trasluscent Loose Setting Powder to set our makeup and keep our faces from getting too shiny!
If we are putting on eyeshadow, we like to use this NARS eyeshadow primer that keeps your shadow on all day long, and prevents it from creasing!
A good bronzer is key in getting that sun-kissed look! We have been using this Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder in ‘Aruba’ for years, and love the color and light sparkle it gives!
We don’t wear a ton of eye makeup, but when we do, a little bit of liner really adds a lot! This Stila Smudge Stick Liner is great because it is waterproof and stays on all day without dripping down your face!
For a light peachy color on your cheeks, we swear by the NARS blush in ‘Orgasm’ because it is a universally pretty shade on any skin tone!
And, lastly, to get our makeup to really last all day long, we love this Urban Decay All Nigher Long-Lasting Setting Spray. It keeps your foundation, eyeshadow, blush and concealer in place—even in hot and humid weather, yes please! And, the best part is: you can’t even feel it when you spray it on!
All of the beauty products we mentioned, as well as this adorable summer look, are from Nordstrom. They carry a ton of our favorite beauty must-haves for summer, and they offer free shipping and returns, which is always a plus! It definitely motivates us to always order from them! We use their in-store-pickup every week (so convenient!) For reference, we are wearing size xs in the tee size 25 in the shorts, and size 7 in the sandals.
