Catrice are continuing to spoil us with their budget-friendly spring/summer releases. The Smoother Plumping Primer Concentrate (£4.99) is infused with vegan collagen to help plump skin and blur fine lines, revealing visibly smoother skin. Boasting a transparent gel-like texture, it is suitable for every skin tone. Cheek Lover Marbled Blush (£4.99) gives a flush of highly-pigmented colour and subtle shimmer. This bestows a radiant, natural finish and creates a visible boost of freshness while emphasising contours. Both available from justmylook.
Milk Makeup’s Hydro Grip Primer (£31), is finally back in stock in the UK. The multi-award winning primer is a silicone-free gel formula made with 94% natural ingredients that also works to hydrate the skin. Enriched with niacinamide and aloe water, it is invisible against the skin as it helps to create a smooth base while adding additional moisture that helps to leave the skin ready for makeup. Formulated with blue agave extract, it works to form a grippy (but never sticky) layer that locks in makeup, leaving it looking freshly applied for up to 12 hours. The airless container keeps formula fresh and ensures all product gets used. Available now at sephora.
Warpaint favourite Face Lace by Phyllis Cohen has launched two new innovative designs. Heart Strings (£18.95) is the first ever thermochroic (heat-sensitive) design. They look black on the sheet but on contact with skin, begin to change through red, amber, green, turquoise and finally a brilliant azure blue. The material changes colours within temperatures of 25-37 degrees Celsius. The Heartstrings are made to stand away from the skin so that you get the full spectrum of colours from cool to warm. They come with extra adhesive dots for repeated use. The little heart outlines are UV red, which glow under black lights.
Heart Beat Liners (£18.95) will ensure you stand out from the crowd, with sleek elongating lines and UV activated details. This design can be worn with one piece per eye, for a minimal graphic liner statement, or combining all four pieces for a truly arresting look. Both available now from face-lace.
