Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream

“Where have you been all my life” is a frequent phrase used when describing Smashbox’s rather infamous BB Cream. It primes the skin, moisturisers, clears blemishes and perhaps most importantly, controls oil so you look radiant rather than french fry greasy.

Available for £27 from Smashbox.co.uk

Givenchy Hydra Sparkling Nude Look BB Cream

We just can’t get enough of the lightly perfumed BB Cream from Givenchy. It may sound strange to describe a BB as “romantic,” but the decadent formula goes on well without masking your face — the perfect complexion lover.

Available for £27 from Selfridges.co.uk

Shiseido Perfect Hydrating BB Cream

Bobbi Brown is already known for its fantastic range of colours and textures, but it’s skincare lines are just as worthy of obsessive behaviour. The BB cream has a higher SPF count for complete coverage, is light and perfectly perfume-free.

The post Hit List: Besting the BB Cream appeared first on Wonderland.

L’Occitane Immortelle Brightening Essence

While the term “brightening essence” may rouse some suspicions, this little bottle really does leave the skin looking fresher and brighter. Complete with a dropper, this “essence” by L’Occitane is incredibly light with a fresh rather than perfume-y lavender scent. A perfect beginning to dewy summer skin.

Available for £44 from Loccitane.co.uk

Lancome Hypnôse Doll Eyes Palette in Reflect D’Améthyste

Purple can result in rather moody and gothic tones, which is why the Hypnose Doll Eyes palette by Lancome is refreshingly, well, fresh. The hues are comprise of soft pinks and baby lavenders, and were made to sparkle. And best of all, the texture is soft and light.

Available for £37 from Lancome.co.uk

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Va Va Violet

Stepping back from deep indigo, florescent fuchsias and plastic-inspired purples, this creamy, decadent lipstick from Revlon saturates the lips with a more sophisticated, wine-fueled hue. With this velvet rush on your lips, all you need is dewy skin and a few coats of black mascara and you’ll be this summer’s hottest vixen.

Available for £7.49 from Boots.com

NUDE Perfect Polish

The Perfect Polish from Nude acts as a gentle exfoliating polish. Whisking away dry skin and uneven texture (and leaving a fresh, sweet scent), the polish is light enough to not irritate skin, but gets the job done.

Available for £28 from SpaceNK.com

Dolce & Gabbana Shine Lipstick in Violet

Oh, baby. Bright purple, and rather matte, lipstick may have many off running and screaming, but with the right touch, it can be the coolest thing this summer. Dolce & Gabbana’s Violet lipstick is a perfect shade of purple, and the texture is creamy, meaning it goes on quite smooth. Pair with fresh skin and simple brown eye liner, and you have the perfect, and unique, summer look.

Available for £23 from Harrods.com

YSL Rouge Volupte Shine in Fuchsia in Rage

For those of you who can’t go all the way with a matte lipstick, this glossy stick from YSL is the perfect solution. It still leaves a good dose of colour, but the texture is much lighter, creating a gorgeous “just devoured a Popsicle” look.

Available for £24 from Yslbeauty.co.uk

Philosophy Lip Shine in Raspberry Sorbet

Nothing get’s more summery than a gorgeous, shimmery lip gloss. The consistency is rather light, but adds a lot of shine and plenty of shimmer with a hint of juicy colour. And with the succulent taste of cool raspberry, we guarantee it will be gobbled in seconds.

Available for £10 from Selfridges.com

Revlon Nail Enamel in Enchanting

No Hit List is complete without a good dose of nail colour. Revlon is known for its long-lasting, non-chipping (and inexpensive) range of varnishes. This creamy, light purple varnish is another example of a summer look done right.

Available for £6.49 from Boots.com

YSL Marrakesh Sunset Eye Palette

Oh YSL, how we love thee. This eye palette from its Marrakesh collection creates the purple look without going overboard — quite easy to do with such a loud colour. Use the sandy tones to highlight and define, and a line of purple to add a surprising pop.

Available for £42 from Yslbeauty.co.uk

MAC Cosmetics Tropical Taboo Lip Pencil in Heroine

As you can tell, it’s all about the purple lips. So the make-up gurus behind MAC Cosmetics created a lip liner that gives absolute precision, definition, and a wallop of colour.

Available for £12 from Maccosmetics.co.uk

Givenchy Limited Edition Le Vernis in Purple

It’s becoming very clear that Givenchy knows a thing or two about nail varnishes. This purple varnish has an interesting, almost grey base, for a purple that is deep and yet still summery. But queue up now — it’s limited edition, so like these sunny days, it will be gone in a flash.

Available for £15 from Debenhams.com

Melvita Purifying Lavender Floral Water

It’s hot out there, so let’s be honest — the air can get a little muggy. But salvation is at hand with this trusty bottle by Melvita. The spray is emits a light, refreshing mist that immediately invigorates without a sticky residue.

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick in Violet Plum

Love is in the air. This long-wear cream shadow from Bobbi Brown contains a hint of shimmer, and because the texture is soft, can add a hint of colour to the lash line, be moulded onto the eye for an intense, all-over look, or lined like kohl around the eye for a sexy-cum-rave attitude.

Available from Bobbibrown.co.uk

Shu Uemura Eyeconic Eye Shadow in Purple

We’ve already mentioned the colour palettes of Shu Uemura’s Eyeconic collection. The tri-colour palette creates depth and definition, and can be layered for either a light dust or intense dose of colour.

The post Hit List: Purple Persuasion appeared first on Wonderland.

Dolce & Gabbana Love in Taormina Blush in Apricot

With the label’s references including hot sandy beaches and terracotta walls, it’s not surprising this blush from the Love in Taormina range by Dolce & Gabbana made the cut. The texture is classic with a light, powdery fine finish. The brown and orange-y hue reigns supreme for freshly tanned skin.

Available for £30 from Harrods.com

Givenchy Le Vernis in Mandarine Bolero

The Manderine Bolero nail varnish by Givenchy will, without a doubt one, be one of the colours of the summer. With a stiff brush, the application is almost fool-proof. And once the creamy varnish is painted on the nails, the colour dances between sunset orange and salmon pink. Claws will be out to get hands on this gem, so we suggest keeping your friends close, but your enemies closer…

Available for £15 from Debenhams.com

YSL Rouge Pur Couture Vernis a Levres in Orange de Chine

No Hit List is complete without a nod to YSL and its summer collection. The Rouge Pur Couture range features a number of sun-tastic oranges (including the creamy Le Orange lipstick), but we love the light sheen provided by the lip gloss. With the ability to layer for a bright pop of colour or a subtle stain, the Vernis a Levres is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

Available for £23.50 from Yslbeauty.co.uk

MAC Cosmetics Tropical Taboo Mineralize Blush in Exotic Ember

If being taboo is wrong, we don’t want to be right. Colours in the Tropical Taboo range from creamy nudes to loud fuchsias and — you guessed it — sunny oranges. The Mineralize Blush in Exotic Ember looks overwhelming, but when applied, it has a satiny, sheer finish.

Available for £20 from Maccosmetics.co.uk

Revlon Neon Nail Art Pen in High Voltage

Orange nails add some fun to monochrome outfits, but this nail art pen from Revlon adds a dose of rave-induced wild behaviour. While it’s available in a variety of shades, the neon orange adds a fun yet still sophisticated quality. It goes on easy, and stays for days.

Available for £7.99 Boots.com

Shu Uemura Eyeconic Duo-Blending Cheek Colour

The new summer Eyeconic collection from Shu Uemura is fun, girly and borders on raving. The orange cheek colour goes on powdery fresh and incredibly bright, as does the eye shadow. While orange eye shadow sounds suspect, Shu Uemura gets the job done with blendable colours and a whole lot of ‘tude.

Available for £22 from Shuuemura.co.uk

Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick in Crazy Tangerine

The sweet romance of Lancome comes full circle with the brand’s Rouge in Love collection. With an easy, classic texture and a subtle finish, even the intense hue of Crazy Tangerine becomes demure once applied.

Available for £21 from Lancome.co.uk

L’Occitane Vanilla & Narcisse Eau de Toilette

The light orange hue of L’Occitane’s Vanilla and Narcisse Eau de Toilette is just as appealing as the scent itself. The scent combines the “Western” French white Narcisse flower with the more “Eastern” Madagascar Vanilla. It’s mellow, it’s rich, and it’s the perfect accompaniment for summer days — while they last.

Available for £49 from Loccitane.co.uk

CK One Soft Defining Lip Pencil

The cosmetic line from Calvin Klein, CK One, offers a range of silky, easily applied products. One of our favourites is the Soft Defining Lip Pencil.

What’s better than a sun made tan from the beaches of Ibiza? Well, not much, but Melvita’s Gradual ProSun Self-Tanning Cream comes close. The application is as easy as can be (no gloves or mess), and with a combined scent of vanilla, orange blossom and coconut, you can walk around smelling like a tropical drink all day.

Available for £22

Available £27 from Lancome.co.uk

Chantecaille Cheek Creme in Dashing and Playful

The ultra-creamy Chantecaille Cheek Creme blushers blend beautifully. While derived from natural ingredients like white lily and peach, these luscious candy gems won’t melt in the sun as the texture turns into a powder finish once applied. Worth every penny.

Available £10 from Stories.com

For those wanting bright, loud, yet more traditional flush, look no further than the Dolce & Gabbana Luminous Cheek Colour in Sole.

The post Hit List: Top Blushers from Estee Lauder to Chantecaille appeared first on Wonderland.

Bright matte lips were a noticeable beauty trend on the catwalk for Spring/Summer 13, with lavish and bold colours that had us lusting after a stand out pout. So luckily Revlon’s “cottoned” on, as its latest innovation in colour stay technology brings us the Colorstay Ultimate Suede lipstick, with a semi-matte finish that lasts an indecent number of hours.

The range covers 14 sophisticated shades and the best thing about it is Revlon’s collaboration with award winning footwear designer Sophia Webster, the former design assistant to Nicholas Kirkwood & winner of British Fashion Council’s Newgen sponsorship. Webster’s exclusively designed a pair of statement heels to match each colour of Revlon’s latest lipsticks, which will brighten a very monochromatic summer wardrobe.

Priding her unique designs on “feminine style and strong silhouettes,” she’s had some of fashion’s top names tongues wagging. From Mimi Kiss Me to Liza Get Lippy, Loren Pout and Kiki Kisses, these are just some of the inventive styles that’ll put a spring in your step.

Revlon Colorstay Suede Lipsticks are now available nationwide from Superdrug, and the Sophia Webster Revlon collaboration shoes are available on the RevlonUK Facebook page from Mid June through September

Welcome to Hit List, a weekly roundup of all things best and present in the world of beauty and fashion. This week, we shed light on some of the best illuminators, powders and bronzers of this season, from barely there Revlon to innovative bareMinerals to featherlight NARS. So take a look, grab a bag, and powder them noses.

1. NARS Light Reflecting Setting Powder

Our first Hit List item combines the setting power of a powder with the light reflection of an illuminator. The NARS Light Reflecting Setting Powder applies matte and reflects light on the skin, reducing the look of wrinkles, pores and other rather unwelcome nasties.

Available £25

2. Chanel Les Beiges Powder

The Chanel Les Beiges collection is as lightweight in design as the actual pressed powder. The powder hails a radiant glow without the buildup, perfect for warm summer days, while the cream and black compact brings a retro chic to an otherwise gentle, unassuming product.

Available £38 at www.selfridges.co.uk

3. & Other Stories Luminising Powder

A welcome surprise to the run-of-the-mill beauty scene is & Other Stories, which boasts an impressive beauty hall with the cosmetics range designed by ab fab make-up artist Lisa Butler. One of the best products from the new range? The Luminising Powder, a lightweight and light on the wallet product.

Available £12 at www.stories.com

4. bareMinerals READY SPF20 Solid Foundation

Give thanks to bareMinerals for a simple yet surprisingly innovative foundation product. The READY SPF20 Solid Foundation is indeed a concealing foundation, but has the texture of a pressed powder. With our skin smooth and coverage long-lasting, our initial caution has turned to steadfast approval.

5. Revlon Nearly Naked Pressed Powder

While recent trends have us covering our faces in bright lipsticks and and sparkling metallics, sometimes less is truly more. The Revlon Nearly Naked compact provides coverage with a simple swoosh of iridescent powder. With SPF20 and a barely there price tag to match, getting naked is perhaps the greatest trend this season.

Available £7.99 at www.superdrug.com

6. Guerlain Terra Ora

There could be no list of besting bronzers without the infamous Guerlain Terra Ora bronzing powder. With the new and improved bronzer from the Terracotta Summer Collection, blinded by the white babes can transform into bronze goddesses by using the two-tone compact to add contour and depth.

Available £45 May 20th at www.houseoffraser.co.uk

7. YSL Terre Saharienne Powder

While most brands will simply reply to ‘bronzer’ with ‘beach,’ YSL takes a much more imaginative, appreciative route for inspiration. The Terre Saharienne powder takes inspiration from the east, with its monogrammed burgundy case fashioned after moucharabieh screens and the powder producing a heated, summery glow more likened to treks through desert sands than budget resort beaches.

Available £34 on www.yslbeauty.co.uk
