Makeup for darker skin tones we love

Foundation

If you’re a beauty lover you have more than likely seen the hype around the Beauty Bakerie InstaBake Aqua Glass Foundation. Available in an extensive range of shades, the foundation creates a flawless, dewy complexion leaving skin with an enviable glass finish. Boasting full coverage and long-lasting wear, the product works to conceal the appearance of blemishes, imperfections and uneven skin tone. Encouraging hydrating benefits that prevent over-drying the skin, the smudge-proof formula dries down to a comfortable, radiant finish.

Concealer

When it comes to concealer both Beauty Bakerie and UOMA Beauty are killing it again. Beauty Bakeries InstaBake 3-in-1 Hydrating Concealer helps to mask blemishes and imperfections creating a smoothing solution. Highly blendable and buildable, the concealer leaves a hydrating finish whilst helping to define and contour the face. Available in an extensive range of shades, the product leaves a seamless finish that’s effortless to create, tapping into the Italian philosophy that beauty should not be stressful

Lipsticks

If you want to pack a punch with a bold red lip try the NYX Professional Makeup Shout Loud Hydrating Satin Lipstick in shade Red Haute. The creamy lipstick boasts intense colour pay-off in just one swipe, delivering long-lasting wear and an outstanding pop of vibrancy to effortlessly upgrade your pout. Featuring a custom-designed heart-stamped bullet, the lip colour provides up to four hours of hydration in addition to pigment-rich coverage, helping to preserve the product’s staying power while ensuring even, non-drying wear. The lipstick is also infused with Mango and Shea Butter to keep the lips nourished and conditioned as they radiate striking colour.
