1. For glowy skin start with Becca Shimmering Skin Perfecter in Topaz and mix it into your foundation. The shimmering properties will help illuminate any darkened patches of the skin.
2. For an extra bronzed glow, dab a bit of the bronze shade from Napoleon Perdis Light Switch Luminizer palette on your cheeks. The light-reflective cream will give your skin an extra boost.
3. For thick, perfectly arched brows you can’t go past Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Kit. Containing a duo brow powder, brow gel, brush and stencils in a handy zip bag, this kit is the only thing you’ll ever need.

I'm a journalism grad and avid makeup fan with an unhealthy addiction to buying nude lipsticks, no matter how similar they all may seem. I love chatting to anyone who will listen about my new favourite products, skincare dos and don'ts and practically any other beauty-related topic under the sun. That doesn't mean I'm frivolous with my recommendations, though--you can count on me to give you the nitty gritty on all your wishlist products. In my spare time, you'll find me binge-watching old episodes of Gilmore Girls or at brunch with a large iced coffee in my hand.
