BEAT THE HEAT WITH MY SUMMER GO-TO BEAUTY PRODUCTS | HOW TO GET THAT BEACHY BEAUTY LOOK FROM HEAD TO TOE
The summer heat here is no joke – temperatures over 100 degrees mixed with high humidity can be brutal on the skin! It’s super important to have a well-rounded collection of makeup come May-September to beat the summer heat. I’ve rounded up my all-time favorite summer go-to beauty products that will give you a gorgeous sheer glow from sun up til’ sun down and from head to toe! Think lighter, brighter, more sheer versus the matte and opaque shades and formulas that you’re maybe more used to. Nothing can age you faster than makeup that is too heavy on the skin. So now is the perfect time to switch up what we’re used to and start using products that highlight our features, help our skin breathe, and give us that summer sun-kissed glow we all long for!
Each of my summer go-to beauty products below can be found at Nordstrom. I’ve found that Nordstrom has some of the most extensive makeup and beauty products you’ll find anywhere. They carry some of my favorite sought-after, hard-to-find beauty brands like the cult following Charlotte Tilbury and Anastasia Beverly Hills lines- they simply have it all! They’re even offering curbside pick up right now making it oh so tempting to shop online and easy to pick up at your earliest convenience. Keep scrolling to find all the details of my summer go-to beauty products – you’re bound to find something you need in your collection…

SHOP MY LOVELY LAVENDER LOOK:
Flawless Face For a Sunkissed Glow
CHARLOTTE TILBURY Airbrush Bronzing Powder
What makes this brand new bronzer by Charlotte Tilbury stand out from all the rest? It’s made with hyaluronic acid, yes hyaluronic acid! This makes it a total game-changer from all the rest of the bronzers that I’ve ever tried. Your skin looks so natural with a skin-perfecting filter. It blends in so smoothly with your skin and warms the look of any complexion! Plus a little bit goes a long way with this product which I just love.
I liked it so much so that after I purchased the Airbrush Bronzer in Medium I then purchased it in the tan shade as well. The tan shade is darker for medium to tan skin tones. I use this darker tan shade for more conturing and when I am wanting more color. In addition to using these bronzers on your face, they can also be used on your body: such as your neck, arms, legs and collarbone as well. Made to define and contour, this sulfate-free bronzing powder is a must-have for anyone wanting skin that glows!
Chanel Water Fresh Tint
This is one of the best beauty products to wear to the pool, beach, or on any summer day or night! Bright, radiant skin is hard for just about anyone to achieve naturally. So what do we do? Grab this highlighter now! Why? It helps diffuse the perfect amount of light reflecting less wrinkles, lines, blemishes & sun damage. Furthermore, it gives you the right amount of sun-kissed, luminosity to your skin without being too glittery like many are. It’s simply the best and my 2nd game-changing makeup tip for beautiful sun kissed skin. I wear this in the light deep shade.
The lightweight gel texture shines with ultra-pure ingredients for a bare-skin effect with 8 hours of hydration and comfort. My skin feels extra refreshed and energized every time I use this product. In addition to this water fresh tint, Chanel has the best contrast powder blush on the market as well as my all-time favorite contouring brush that I use all the time. Oh, and don’t forget the eyes! Chanel’s eye pencil and cream eyeshadow are two of the best beauty products on the market! Cream Shadows are great choices during the summertime for a light airy look with just a quick swipe of your finger. And this cream shadow comes in many stunning shades. I touched mine up today with Scintillance. I also own & love Silver Pink & Undertone.
Kosas Tinted Face Oil Foundation
Talk about a flawless face! This tinted foundation is my 3rd game-changing tip for that perfect sun-kissed glow and can be applied within 10 seconds and be worn all day long. The breathable, silky, clean formula instantly evens tone, minimizes pores and erases imperfections while healing the skin underneath. I simply cannot say enough amazing things about how much I love this tinted moisturizer! It simply glides on your skin, makes it look and feel flawless and I wear it every single day! I also love that it is a clean beauty product and contains avocado oil that provides deep hydration making my skin feel more amazing than ever. I wear the #06 color for reference.
CLÉ DE PEAU BEAUTÉ Radiant Fluid Foundation SPF 24
I love applying some of this simply spf foundation (along with my Kosas tinted moisturizer above) when I am wanting a little more coverage on certain areas for rosacea or blemishes for a dewy, luscious finish during the summer as well. It reveals the vibrant luminosity that transcends the natural look of skin. This product is for anyone who wants a sheer-to-medium coverage liquid foundation with a dewy, lustrous finish! I highly recommend this product and it has sunscreen to keep your skin protected. It’s the perfect weight and not greasy at all.
Translucent Loose Setting Powder
I love the sheer and silky aspect to this loose setting powder by Laura Mercier! It sets my makeup flawlessly and feels so refined on my face. I have oily skin sometimes, so this product is perfect for me. However, it works on pretty much any type of skin or skin shade! It applies so evenly and blends effortlessly, leaving behind a modern matte finish with a touch of sheer coverage. It has a translucent shade that is gorgeous!
Glossy Summery Lips
CHARLOTTE TILBURY Pillow Talk Lip Cheat Lip Liner
If you’re in the market for a new lip liner, this one is for you! Another Charlotte Tilbury fave that gives a rich and velvety look to the lips. The pillow talk lip liner has the power to reshape, resize, and rebalance the lips for a fuller appearance! I’ve always been a huge fan of pillow talk, but it’s now in a deeper, sweeter berry shade that is perfect for the summertime. It also comes in a long-lasting brown color that’s great for deeper skin tones. Personally, I try to match my lip liner to my lipstick shade to perfect my lips’ natural shape! I love wearing pink and berry shades in the spring and summer months.
In addition to the amazing lip liner, Charlotte Tilbury’s pillow talk matte lipstick is infamous for its magical looks and hydrating formula. I take this lipstick almost everywhere I go and use it more than any other makeup product in my purse! In my opinion, it’s the most gorgeous color for the spring and summer, however, I choose to wear it year-round because it’s that good!
Radiant Lip Gloss
Can a girl ever really own too many tubes of lip gloss? I don’t think so! And this unique and captivating lip gloss has a long-lasting finish that delivers a dewy, moisturized glow with sheer, luscious color for vibrant lips that is a MUST for . It comes in so many different shades and colors making it hard to choose just one! I’m wearing the color Pink Aura.
Shimmering Summer Eyes
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Eye Shadow Palette
The Best Eye Shadow Palette that I even use on my brows! These color-coded shadow palettes are so simple to use, even if you have no idea where to start with eye makeup. You simply can’t go wrong, but just watch this video for a ‘how to’.
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
This creamy concealer is a best seller in the makeup world and is known for brightening, correcting and perfecting the skin! It’s made for 16-hour wear making it long-lasting and worth every penny! If you’re in need of a medium-to-high buildable coverage product, this concealer is for you! I love how this concealer feels and looks with a radiant finish that won’t budge! It looks so good even in the most humid days. To add dimension and contour, select two shades deeper and place in the hollows of your cheeks, on your temples and along the hairline and jawline.
Double Wear Brush-On Glow BB Highlighter
This highlighter by Estee Lauder is made to brighten, perfect and correct the skin, leaving it feeling soft, comfortable and smooth. It’s lightweight which is why it’s one of my number one picks for the spring and summer! Since it isn’t heavy on my face, it’s easy to wear all day long and still feel comfortable. Also, it’s a good product to take when you travel or on-the-go! It minimizes imperfections including blemishes, dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles which is another plus.
ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS Better Together Brow Set
Obsessing over this Anastasia brow kit – a limited-edition brow-kit that features two can’t-live-without brow products in one. It makes for the perfect brows in just minutes! Who doesn’t love a long-lasting product guaranteed to make you look fab? I personally use the medium brown, but this kit is offered in many colors to fit each skin tone perfectly. I highly recommend this brow kit because it’s easy to take on the go and holds the brows beautifully in place all day long without flaking. The set includes: a full-size brow wiz mechanical brow pencil and a travel-size clear brow gel.
URBAN DECAY Perversion Mascara
This is seriously the best mascara you will EVER use! Specifically formulated to lengthen and volumize the lashes, you’ll never back after using this ultra-creamy mascara. I got a sample of this Perversion mascara from Urban Decay, and I’ve been using it ever since. I’ve used Dior, Chanel, Benefit They’re Real, Too Faced Better Than Sex, you name it – this is so much better! For the longest, fullest, blackest lashes get this mascara. It is completely build-able, and I always put on coat after coat and never clumps. My 3 daughters and I are all obsessed with it!

After applying, your skin is smooth and vibrant!

My hair always feels so smooth, silky, and healthy after using this leave-in conditioner. Simply mist this product through damp hair before brushing or styling with heat and the conditioning features are almost instant!

This amazing body shimmer is a Nordstrom-exclusive that achieves an elongated, slimmer-looking body in no time! Who doesn’t want that?! I love the jumbo size, but I also use the (CHARLOTTE TILBURY Supermodel Body Slimmer Shimmer Shape, Hydrate & Glow) in this size too because it’s great for travel. The coolest part about this product is that it contains a skin de-puffing agent that creates an optical illusion of long, lean limbs!

SHOP MY LOVELY LAVENDER LOOK:
Bow Back Taffeta Blouse
Would you believe me if I told you this top is under $60?! It’s the most gorgeous lilac color to brighten up your summer wardrobe! This airy taffeta blouse has perfect puff-sleeves, which we all know I’m a huge fan of. For more puff-sleeve inspo, check out my recent post HERE featuring lots of budget-friendly puff-sleeve tops. I do not recommending sizing up in this top because of the billowy fit so I’m wearing a size US4.
Linen Joggers
These linen jogger pants are so perfect for summer because they’re lightweight, flowy, and comfy chic. On the days where I want to be a little bit dressier than sweats, I’ll wear these joggers! They look so good with basically any tops and shoes you own! Wear them with sandals like I’ve done here or sneakers for errand-running. These come in 6 different color options including grey, blue, black, camouflage, white and olive! Since these are true linen, they will stretch to the perfect fit, so don’t size up! I am a size 4 in pants, and I got the XS in these.
Dolce Vita Slide Sandal
I love the thin double strap on these sandals making them super feminine and flattering on the foot! These are 35% off at Nordstrom right now making them under $40 which is an amazing deal. These come in 8 different colors including snakeskin, black, blue tie dye, coral, clear, woven, tortoise, and white! These run slightly small, so I do suggest going up half a size! I’m a size 7 1/2 or 8 and the 8 fit me better.
LAGOS Crossover Ring
I along with all 3 of my girls have this exact crossover ring and are all obsessed with it! They actually got this ring as their class rings instead of the traditional high school class ring and absolutely love it. They wear them on repeat and so do I! It has signature caviar beading that adds a luxe texture to an elegantly shaped X. I highly recommend adding this to your jewelry collection or putting this accessory on a wish list!
Diamond Heart Pendant Necklace
This pretty heart necklace is similar to the one I’ve featured in today’s look, and I think it’s beautiful! Jennifer Zeuner makes the best accessories that are on-trend and high-quality. The diamond-and-enamel pendant is simply gorgeous! I think the blue color is so fitting for summer, too.
