LOVIN’

Because warmer weather brings different concerns (hello sweaty
commutes), and inspires our desires for more of a low-key

approach to life in general - here’s how to work a summer beauty
vibe that looks hot, both literally and figuratively

MARQUEZ’ ALMEDIA

MICHELLE ROSE GOLD EVERYTHING
PFEIFFER

Illuminator Drops in It’s all over our Insta, MADONNA
Original, €38, splashed through every
Iconic London homewares department Soleil D’été Metal
worth its weight in salt; Lip Colour in Nude
MARQUEZ’ ALMEDIA hell, it’s even the colour Mood, €4.50, Catrice
of our iPhones and quite
honestly, we’re ok with it.
Say what you will about
the oft considered ‘basic’
alloy, but when it comes
to enhancing a tan, the
metallic hue can’t be
beaten. This summer, it’s
popping up in highlighters,
pigments, nail polishes,
lipsticks and at U, we’re
particularly loving wearing
the shimmery sunset shade
as eyeshadow and how it
cleverly contrasts cooler-

toned eyes and
brings out the
heat in warmer
ones. Pass us
a glass of rosé
too, while we’re
at it.

now and again (who knew
using one past its Best Finishing Gloss,

Hulk-hued?), but fake tan
has come a long way since Tea to Tan Face &
the Tango’d days of old. Body, €38, By Terry
New developments have
really changed the faux
glow game for the better,
from instant bronzers with
the benefit of a longer-
lasting glow to tinted
serums that stimulate
natural melanin. Tan guru
James Read has developed
a first of its kind
nourishing tanning balm
with 100% organic coconut
oil, which he says is
perfect for even the driest
skins. “It took almost
two years to develop and
perfect. I wanted to create
something that has never
been done before in the
world of tanning.”

AKRIS NEXTURISE
CHANEL THIS

That’s naturally texturising,
darling! For years, we’ve
manipulated our hair’s
texture with every hot tool
and chemical imaginable,
but with the ‘new realism’
trend all the rage for
summer ’17, what if we
said you could start rocking
your natural hair as-is? Not
Rose Hair & only is a super-polished
Body Oil, look unrealistic for most

to achieve (not to mention
damaging), according
to Eugene Souleiman,
Wella Professionals’ Global
Creative Director of Care and
Styling, it also feels, “Dare I

Spray, €38, Rahua dried look just doesn’t look

Creative Curl wand, €179, so cool girl.” So, you heard
GHD Thick Dry Finishing Spray, him: slowly back away

TRUSSARDI €23, Oribe from the hairdryer and

take complete advantage of
those extra mins in bed.
