Add brightness: 10 summer collections of cosmetics
Masha Vorslav
Summer is traditionally rich in colorful collections of cosmetics for different tastes and purses. Some are sold now, and in order not to miss them and others, we decided to describe everything interesting.
MAC Alluring Aquatic
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners
The most beautiful line of the brand, if not for all the time, then for the last for sure, Alluring Aquatic stands out just for its packaging - with azure tubes with very naturalistic bubbles. The palette is quite ordinary: there is a bronze twinkle in almost every jar; those that do not exist are balanced between loose plum, pink, grass green and beige. Nevertheless, the Alluring Aquatic is a high-quality, extensive and beautiful summer collection, which we consider exemplary.
OCC Lip Tar Test Tubes
Where can one buy: at Sephora
OCC all the time on its wave and that we like. The brand has already shown a mini-collection of super-flashing Dune Generation, which will be sold exclusively in Sephora. But we were interested in another novelty - the same lipstick sets Lip Tar. There are three of them; we are curious, of course blue-red, but the other two look attractive and in a good way girlish.
Dior transat
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners
If you also failed to find the very pink It-Lash mascara, you can be consoled by the brand’s cruise collection. There are no unusual color solutions in Dior Transat, but in case you want to make up so as to emphasize the merits, it will be just right - red, sand and blue are not enough for anyone. We would pay close attention to the varnishes (all are good), the blue palette of shadows and the bronzer.
Chanel Reflets d'Été de Chanel
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners
Chanel has been making a summer collection “blasted” by its standards for many years - purple and orange mascara doesn’t fit in with their conservative concept. We only welcome the diversity and we are glad in advance that the brand is pushing the boundaries of clients accustomed to mother-of-pearl and pink clients, even if so delicately. In addition to the carcass, White Light Eastern Light white lacquer and Illusion d'Ombre cream shades are noteworthy - they are always good with the brand.
Illamasqua Matte Effect
Where can one buy: on the brand website
This season Illamasqua compares favorably with everyone - the collection has an intelligible and practically interesting concept. All the tools in it (lipstick, cream blush, top for varnish and base for make-up) are deliberately opaque, and the colors are combined with each other so that you can make up at least all at once. Swatch, by the way, can be viewed directly in the online store Illamasqua (shock video).
Givenchy croisiere
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners
Givenchy went on the beaten track and released a collection with a central (it is also called "old") product - bronzer. This huge relief disk briefly characterizes all other means: not loud, but not faded lipsticks and shadows, ordinary gloss, forever young, that is, topical, tanned gel. Only an electrically blue waterproof mascara, which, however, does not contradict the imposed cruise mood, is knocked out of the choir.
Bobbi Brown Surf & Sand
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners in July
Bobbi Brown is good at making basic products, sometimes not even boring ones. In the new iteration of the seven-year-old collection: aroma, two palettes of shimmering powdery shadows with pastel and golden brown shades, frankly brilliant blush, cream-shadow and lipstick with a no less obvious shimmer (however, it’s a sin to be angry).
Smashbox santigold
Where can one buy: on the brand website
Collaboration with the singer Santigold justifies its name a little more than completely - each jar, from shadows to lip gloss, is luxurious to excess. We do not see, however, there is nothing bad in this - the impulse to put on “all the best at once” is familiar to everyone. A little object going beyond the scope of a cosmetic collection, a ring with glitter inside, may even serve as a souvenir (just make sure that the person donated is not too serious about his person).
Marc Jacobs Summer Collection
Where can one buy: at Sephora
Marc Jacobs again takes more form than content: the already rounded, like pebbles, the bottles for the summer series are painted white, making them more attractive and fashionable. The most entertaining element is a seven-color flat palette of shadows; Her paints repeat and develop three new nail polishes and a line of gel eyeliners.
Make Up For Ever Aqua Summer
Where can one buy: in the brand's corners
The most utilitarian set of tens; Aqua Summer can be worn in the pool, and in the 30-degree city inferno (which will certainly return soon). Professional brand is characterized by thoroughness, MUFE has not changed it this time either: all products that need to be waterproof are made like this (mascara, lip liners, liner and lipstick). Another trick - fixing spray Mist & Fix, about which we have already told.
