The 7 Spring Beauty Buys You Need This April…

Here at Glossy HQ, we are in full spring mode. Our winter wardrobe is away and our favourite pastels and puffy sleeves are here!

And, with spring cleaning likely at the front of our minds, have you thought about switching up your beauty products too, to match the new season? 

Wave goodbye to your berry lipstick and your heavy winter moisturiser (see you in six months!) and say hello to the new beauty products you need this spring!

The New Beauty Products You Need This Spring!

1. 

   L’Oréal Paris Skin Paradise SPF20 Tinted Water-Cream

   Glossies, it’s time to switch up your full coverage foundation and bring back the dewy, spring look with L’Oréal Paris Skin Paradise SPF20 Tinted Water-Cream. 

   I love a tinted moisturiser, especially during spring! Designed to illuminate and hydrate, this 70% water-based formula helps create a natural makeup look – my go-to for dewy, luminous skin all day!

   Infused with skincare ingredients like aloe vera, ginger and witch hazel, these skincare faves are renowned to energise the skin for a full-of-life, healthy glow. Did I mention up to 24 hours of hydration too?

   I love the formula of this tinted moisturiser. A lightweight gel that has a sheer, even finish and leaves you blemish-free and with a balanced skin tone. With SPF20 too, this is perfect to use on your complexion this spring, now the sun is shining!

   Lottie London Ombre Blush

   This spring, blush is all the rage. Sweeping blush across your cheeks up towards your hairline and on the bridge of your nose for an on-the-trend look.

   One of my favourite British brands is Lottie London and one of my fave picks, is the brand’s Lottie London Ombre Blush. A gorgeous lightweight powder that gives you a pretty tint, it’s the perfect accessory to any spring outfit.

   Swirl your makeup brush on the pan to pick up the mix of shades (thanks to its ombre finish) and sweep it onto your cheekbones. I love how buildable this blush is – it can easily take you from day to night, from a natural look to full on glam. My two favourite shades are ‘Exposed’, a cute, candy pink and ‘Serene’, a perfectly peachy colour!

   I Heart Revolution Watermelon Lipgloss Slushie

   Glossies, it’s time to put away your dark, matte lipsticks and stock up on fun lippies that give us major spring vibes!

   I love wearing lipgloss this time of year – and my current fave is I Heart Revolution Watermelon Lipgloss Slushie. A lipgloss in a bright pink hue that’s non-sticky and leaves your lips looking and feeling super juicy! 

   Nourishing oils hydrate your lips all day and leave a sweet, smelling scent of watermelon behind too.

   Too Faced Limited Edition Too Femme Ethereal Eye Shadow Palette

   Every spring I always treat myself to a new eyeshadow palette, bursting with pastels and shimmers! This year, I couldn’t resist the Too Faced Limited Edition Too Femme Ethereal Eye Shadow Palette. 

   With a cute array of 14 highly pigmented eyeshadows that blend seamlessly onto your eyelids – with six shimmers and eight mattes – you can create an assortment of different looks. My favourite shades to wear together are the stunning mint green and lilac shades – to create a shimmery, spring look! 

   This is my favourite product from the brand’s spring ‘Too Femme’ collection. I love how gorgeous the packaging is, how useful it is having a built-in mirror and that there are two larger pans of transition shades for any look you choose to put together.

   CeraVe AM Facial Moisturising Lotion SPF25 with Ceramides

   With the better weather coming Glossies, we don’t need to use our heavy moisturisers anymore. Our skincare focuses shift from hydration to protection and what’s better than the CeraVe AM Facial Moisturising Lotion SPF25 with Ceramides?

   As we know, you should never leave the house without SPF on your face and this moisturiser is such an easy way to get this into your routine. This lightweight, protecting face cream restores and strengthens your natural skin’s barrier – so no moisturise loss. 

   Defending you against damaging UV rays, as well as soothing and calming irritated skin, you’ll wonder what you did before you tried this. I use this every morning… It sits well under makeup and absorbs so quickly into the skin.

   BaByliss Berry Crush Curls Curling Tong

   One of my favourite things about spring is the hairstyles. Goodbye to my slick straight hair and hello gorgeous curly locks – give me layers, bounce and volume! We can all achieve stunning curly locks too, without breaking the bank. 

   My go-to curling wand right now is the BaByliss Berry Crush Curls Curling Tong. It’s so easy to use and only £30. Use the lever to softly hold your hair as you curl (no burning your fingers!), and after a few seconds, release your locks to reveal curls full of bounce. Once they’ve cooled down, brush them out for a natural, spring look. 

   These curlers are so aesthetically pleasing too – I love their rose gold barrel and berry handle. The barrel is also coated with quartz-ceramic, which helps achieve shiny and smooth curls!

   Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau de Toilette

   It’s springtime, so of course, we need to switch up our fragrance. Winter is a time for musky, woody notes, while spring is time for floral, fruity scents. My favourite perfume I reach for every year is the classic Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau de Toilette. 

   Charming, luxurious and juicy is Marc Jacobs Daisy in three words. Notes of wild berries, white violet and jasmine will leave you feeling decadent and playful. And, housed in the iconic daisy-topped bottle too, it’s perfect for any dressing table or Insta post! Thanks to its longevity too, you can spritz this dazzling, dreamy scent onto skin in the morning and it’ll still be lingering in the evening as the sun sets.
