Beauty Products to Steer You Away From the Winter Blues

In these cold and gloomy winter months, we can get caught up in the almost endless cycle of the winter blues. The sun isn’t out as much, our skin is dry and all we want to do is stay inside and curl up and watch Netflix. If you need to get out of that funk, here are some makeup products that are sure to not only brighten up your complexion, but your mood. 

Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Abricot

This is the most incredible and sweet perfume. It is happiness and sunshine in a bottle. This perfume is sweet and has a vanilla undertone and smells like pure vacation. It smells like you have delicious and creamy lemon meringue pie all over you. This perfume will be sure to pick you up from that winter slump. 

Blush tints, blush tints, blush tints! 

Blush is a great way to make your dull and dry winter skin look flushed and pretty. Plus, if you opt for a liquid blush, your face will look more dewy and summery rather than powdery. My favourite liquid blush is the Becca Beach Tint in the shade Fig.

…And Bronzer

Bronzer is a great way to add colour to your face when you feel especially pale in the winter months. 

Bright lips are a must! 

A bright pink or coral lip with an oversized sweater can bring some cheer and colour when it is so gloomy and dark outside. It is a great way to add colour to your beauty routine while putting a great smile on your face.
