Makeup Refresh

During the transition between Winter and Spring, my skin tends to get really dry. I’ve been using the same foundation for years, and while I love that it provides great coverage, I’ve recently been using the new Burt’s Bees® BB Cream with SPF 15 (available at Walmart in the natural beauty section) after hearing great things about it, and I’m loving the change. It provides an instant lightweight coverage, moisturizes, firms and conceals to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles! My skin looks brighter, feels softer and stays moisturized throughout the day, which is exactly what I’m looking for when it comes to an everyday, Spring makeup look.

Here’s how I achieve my daily face:

After cleansing, toning and applying concealer, I squeeze a dime size amount of Burt’s Bees® BB Cream (in Light/Medium) on my hand.

Next, using my EcoTools® Skin Perfecting Brush (available at Walmart in the cosmetic accessories section), I blend the BB Cream over my entire face, in a circular motion (the dense bristles of the brush are especially designed to smoothly and evenly distribute the BB Cream onto the face, and the rounded edge is ideal for precise coverage around the eyes and nose). Once the BB Cream is thoroughly blended, I move on to blush, mascara and lightly filling in my brows.

I prefer my skin to be the focus of my daily face, but the one thing I can’t go without is a bright lip color. Burt’s Bees® recently launched lipsticks in 14 full coverage, satin-finished shades, and they’re ultra moisturizing, thanks to natural ingredients like Beeswax, Moringa Oil and Rasberry Seed Oil.

To get a perfect pout, I use my EcoTools® Detailed Lip Liner Brush from the day to night bush set, for even application of lipstick, especially since I don’t use lip liner. My favorite from the Burt’s Bees® collection is Magenta Rush.
