8 glow-givers that deserve a place in your make-up bag this summer

Get golden hour gleam in a glimpse with worthy updates to your favourite summer sunshine cheaters.

MAC Strobe Cream, €32 (don’t panic! Same formula, just in a new house, two new shades and a range of gleaming blushes) moisturises while adding what Dominic Skin, Director of Artistry calls a “runway-ready radiance” while Chanel’s beloved Baume Essentiel Sculpting shimmer stick, €45, recreates a seashell pearl for a mermaid glow.

Chanel make-up artist Anna Payne suggests you add to the eyelids, the inner corner of the eyes and the lips “for mermaid-like allure and a radiant finish – mermaid glow make-up is all about glossy, hydrated, healthy-looking skin.”

Benefit’s beloved bestselling Hoola bronzer has two new companions too – the creamy Hoola Wave bronzing balm, €41, and Glow-La-La Velvet Gleam Highlighter, €36, for a just-off-the-beach glow.

For a hit of sunkissed shimmer at Spritz time, slick the golden liquid bronzer of Westman Atelier Sun Tone Bronzing Drops, €62, to the high points of the face for an instant dose of sunshine.

In more old favourites, Charlotte Tilbury’s beloved and must-be-tried-to-be-believed Hollywood Contour Wands, €40 are now available in seven sculpting and lifting shades and Glossier’s iconic Futuredew is now available in a solid stick, €32 for targeted highlighting and gleaming skin in one swipe.

If stick-swiping is your preferred method of make-up application, Rimmel’s new 3-in-1 Multi-Tasker Bronzing Stick, €15.99, gives a sheer, sun-kissed warmth that sculpts, bronzes, glows and blends beautifully with a brush or your fingertips.
