If you see me in the city, chances are I'd be wearing well executed eye shadow with a unique color blend and a bold, vibrant
lip color, (preferably a creamy matte formula) for a glamorous pout. It wasn't until I saw Kendall Jenner rocking shiny lips and a sheer dusting of glittery shadow did the minimal makeup trend catch my eye. For the first time in a long time I decided to try the "less is more approach" for a fresh summery look.

To help me play-up the barely-there makeup trend I used
Kendall’s new eye shadow palette from the Estée Edit Collection and a whole
bunch of XXXL lip glosses from essence. If you’re looking for intense, lustrous shine for that beautiful mirrored effect, then head to the essence display in
Shoppers Drug Mart. For just $2.99 ea you can have your pick of glistening pinks, reds,
corals, orange, nudes and more with moisturizing, lip loving formulas.
These glosses provide layers upon layers of juicy color with
a delicious candy scent and lightweight comfort. The applicator is easy to use
and quite flexible, designed to work around the contours of your pout for plumpness. Although the
texture clings to skin for prolonged wear, the gloss is non-sticky and quite
cushiony.
The look I was going for used neutral tones but I couldn’t
resist the petal perfect pinks for spring. The sheer color makes lips appear full
and luminous plus they keep dryness at bay.
You can totally use these to replace your lip balm if you
want pretty color without sacrificing hydration and you can layer them on top
of lipstick for an instant boost of shine.
If you crave a tad more color essence also has some new
Liquid Lipsticks with a lush, creamy consistency, and sheer to medium coverage.
The moist texture drenches lips in dewy pigment (similar to gloss) but with a
little more vibrancy and the mini size makes them perfect for smaller bags and
clutches. The shade selection is a tad limited and the colors are mostly
neutral and soft. The Liquid Lipsticks retail for $3.99 ea.
