The First Look Out of Lockdown
The time is almost upon us to finally let go of our lounge wear and enter normality. We now have the opportunity to meet up with a small group of friends, with even bars and restaurants beginning to open again. This presents special occasions to socialise with loved ones; where we can get dressed up, feel our best and spend time with the people that really matter.
Personally, make-up is something of a ritual. I enjoy spending time trying out new products, whilst also relying on trust-worthy tools, which I know work for me. I have had my fair share of make-up horrors over the years, but I am finally learning what works for me and my skin. Additionally, in this period of lockdown, I have found that make-up actually makes me feel more productive, happy and really the best version of myself. This is exactly what my “First Look Out of Lockdown” will embody. A natural, glowing and healthy look, which can be taken easily from day to night.
Cult Favourites
Cohorted Cult supports a wide range of beauty and make-up brands, giving all products the opportunity to shine. Ranging from sultry red lipstick, to that fresh-faced skin tint, our ultimate make-up products will suit everyone. If you’re looking to upgrade your make-up bag for the return to normality, trying out a few of these products may allow you to enter the beer garden with a new found confidence and self-appreciation!
Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter is a beautiful product, which can be worn on its own for a minimal healthy glow or layered under foundation for a medium to full coverage. This makes sure you are in keeping with your natural beauty and at £34 this product is worth every penny; allowing you to achieve that glow in multiple ways!
For an added boost of radiance to your base, the MONU Skin Perfecting Skin Tint is a product we rave about at Cohorted . This is ideal for those who are interested in the ingredients of their products and are slective with what they choose to apply to their face. With Vitamin D, Blackcurrant and Zinc Oxide, this skin tint adds a light bronze dew with the benefit of SPF. At £36, this product will ensure your skin always looks holiday ready, even though we’re not getting away anytime soon!
For those pesky dark circles and little red blemishes, the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is one of the best products on the market. The hype is real, with millions of reviews across the internet by bloggers and influencers. At £24.50, this is a must-have for your make-up bag. We urge you to snap it up!
To counteract any unnecessary oily moments, the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder can be dusted in specific areas. Being recently voted the no. 1 Best Setting Powder for all skin tones, we can see why. This product, at £25.60, is long-lasting, sweat-proof but doesn’t leave you looking matte or dull.
To fake the holiday glow we are missing, the Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder will give you the achievable look of sun kissed skin. In a range of six colours, this light-weight powder can be worn all day and night. At £33, this product may be more expensive than drug-store choices, but its strong pigment ensures it lasts a lifetime.
The make-up brand Doucce is loved by Cohorted Cult and their powder blush really makes that popping statement. Providing a formula that is “buildable and blend–able,” this really can work for everyone. At £28, this is a product which can really embody the up-coming moments of spring.
The Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand definitely features in the Cult Favourites. Recently gaining popularity through Vogue’s Beauty You Tube videos with Madison Beer, this highlighter provides a natural looking illuminator, without the hassle. At £29, this product will make sure you have that post-lockdown glow while sipping on an aperol spritz.
This is where you can really begin to make the look your own. The Charlotte Tilbury Golden Goddess Palette suits the majority of eye shades. Plus, through an easy 4 step process, this palette can elevate your look from day to night. At £40, this product is quite expensive, however it allows for multiple options to create a look that best suits you! You will also notice a huge difference in the pigmentation, seamlessness and wear of higher end eye-shadows.
A reliable mascara is needed by everyone. The Clinique High Impact Mascara ensures your lashes are extra–long and extra dramatic. Not clumpy, just impactful, this mascara always makes your lashes look their best. At £21, this is an affordable price for a product which takes your eyes to the next level.
Your lipstick really should symbolise your mood. A beautiful, springtime nude can be found in the classic Pillow Talk shade by Charlotte Tilbury. At £25, this will ensure you are bang on trend in the nude style stakes.
Comparatively, a pop of fun with the Laura Mercier Rouge Essential Silky Lipstick can really take you from lockdown look, to sexy restaurant vibes. At £26, this is a bright red lippy that can ensure everyone is eyeing up your cherry lips.
