With the arrival of the hot season, our makeup choices change. From brighter tones to lighter coverage, the options are varied and lead us to replace some of the makeup products included in our routine for most of the year with others, where color, texture, and function adapt to days when temperatures rise, complement a sunset cocktail, and don’t compromise our look, even when there’s still time for a dinner with friends after work.
1. Clarins, Lip Comfort Oils
Inspired by color therapy, Clarins has launched the limited edition Power of Colors that adds three new shades to the already beloved Lip Comfort Oils.
Capable of inducing biological and psychological effects, colors have the power to release dopamine (the happiness hormone) in our brain. Based on this knowledge, Clarins has released the new shades – Joyful Yellow, Daring Orange, and Passionate Pink – with meanings ranging from optimism and confidence to creativity and femininity. With 90% of natural origin ingredients, the lipsticks promise the necessary dose of boldness for this spring/summer.

2. Elizabeth Arden, Ceramide
A rejuvenating foundation that promotes smooth, firm, and radiant skin. This is how the brand describes this new release. Its medium to high coverage, capable of covering imperfections and spots, still offers a natural and luminous finish. The Ceramide formula ensures its stability for over 8 hours, thanks to an ultra-creamy texture. Elizabeth Arden’s new foundation also includes SPF 15, combining multiple benefits in one product.
Available at selected perfumeries.
3. Guerlain, Terracotta
Guerlain has enriched its iconic line with the launch of Terracotta Blush, featuring a formula composed of 90% natural origin ingredients and a smooth finish. Lightweight and easy to blend, this blush reveals the skin’s natural undertones with a very light layer of color. Terracotta Blush is available in three shades – nude, pink, and coral, each in light and dark intensity.
Available at guerlain.com and selected perfumeries.
4. Givenchy, Rose Perfecto
Givenchy’s couture line of lip balms has launched four new ultra-bright and vibrant shades, with a marbled texture and a hybrid formula, providing hydration and a ‘more volume’ effect. These lip balms are available in gloss format, with a pearlescent finish and a shimmering finish, as well as in stick format. The stick formula is composed of 95% natural origin ingredients and the gloss format has a 97% skincare base, promising long-lasting comfort.
