Dew Tint In ‘Mauve Grape’

£18 | Amuse

Just like the rest of my face, I don’t like what I wear on my lips to feel too heavy. That’s why I swear by this dewy tint in the summer. It’s lightweight, sheer and gives lips a healthy flush of colour that lasts. It also layers nicely with glosses and other lipsticks.

Surrealskin Soft Setting Spray

£38 | Makeup By Mario

Speaking of products that last all day, this is one of the best setting sprays I’ve ever tried. It’s small and compact, making it great for travel, and the formula is so refreshing. It instantly gives skin a healthy radiance but also keeps everything in place without drying out the skin.

Tinted Moisturiser Natural Dewy SPF30

£39 | Laura Mercier

Instant hydration with a small amount of coverage – I recommend this to everyone I know because it’s the ultimate summer base. It unifies your skin without feeling cakey or looking like you have much on.

Diorshow Overvolume Waterproof Mascara

£38 | Dior

For full fat lashes, try this mascara from Dior. A tip – take a little off the brush before you apply it to avoid any large clumps. Once you’ve nailed the application, you’ll find it lasts all day, doesn’t budge and holds a curl like no other.

Colour Wash

£44 | Victoria Beckham Beauty

For those who prefer a barely-there make-up look, you have to try these colour washes. Just a drop or two gives skin a soft pigment in the most natural way. It’s super watery, so when you first apply it, you can see whether you need to build it up gradually. I love the bronze tones for sunkissed-looking skin. The cooling applicator is an added bonus.

CC Starlight Glow Highlighter In ‘Fairy Flirt’

£54 | By Terry

You can’t beat a good highlighter. When the sun is shining, you want your complexion to catch the light. Use a big, fluffy brush and dust this all over – lightly. It gives you an unrivalled glow, with the perfect amount of shimmer.

Blush Butter Balm In ‘Pink Sunset’

£27 | Summer Fridays

Pairing this with just a bit of concealer is all you need to bring your complexion to life. It’s so creamy and a small amount goes a long way. I like that it feels hydrating – there’s no powdery dry down that grabs in weird places. The soft sheen lasts for hours as well.

Sun SPF50 Light Face Fluid

£20 (was £25) | NUXE

This is my favourite facial SPF. It’s so milky and lightweight, blending quickly into the skin so you can apply things on top without any pilling. The glowy texture means it creates a nice base for make-up – you’ll find concealer and skin tints play nicely with it; there’s no sliding whatsoever.
