Summer Essentials #7: Peach beauty

Peach makeup looks fresh and dewy for the summer, and I keep noticing pretty girls with peach blush, lipstick and toes. Toby and I stopped by the NARS store the other day, and I tried on a peach lipstick. Their Barbarella color was lovely and natural, and I've worn it almost everyday since! (I'd highly recommend it if you're looking for a flattering neutral.) Here are six peachy cosmetics to give you that sun-kissed glow...
1. Peach nectar lip gloss, 2. Barbarella lipstick, 3. Peach eyeshadow, 4. Nectar shimmer brick, 5. A Crewed Interest nail polish, 6. Peach blush.

  7. Also Benefit's Cha cha Tint and Coralista, amazing and natural looking peach blushes. Also for a birghter peachy coral lip I love Nars Niagra. Just in case you needed more stuff to covet...

  9. I have really been wanting to try Nars makeup in general. Is the Barbarella color more nude than peach? I can't tell on my computer screen (it has steered me wrong far too many times in the past).

  28. I love this color. It is so girly and perfect for summer. Here it's winter so I'm into the darker shades of berry and dark brown nudes. I can't wait for summer because I'm going peach. x Elizabeth from the dotdot blog.

  33. I LOVE all of these. As a huge fan of neutrals, peach feels to me like an almost-neutral, just barely bright enough to add some pretty. Thanks for sharing!

  39. I agree that peach or coral are so refreshing for summer. I recommend Chanel's lipstick Liberte and lipgloss called Coral Love. They are light too. I love Nars cosmetics too.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I'd also suggest Benefit's "Nice Melons" eye shadow - it's a lovely peachy pink that I just love.

    "Everyday" is an adjective. It does not take the place of the noun phrase "every" (adjective) + "day" (noun), which is what you mean when you mistakenly use the adjective "everyday" in your posts. Please, as an intelligent, well-respected blogger, take note of this mistake that has been repeatedly pointed out to you. Grammatical mistakes may not bother some, but why not take a second to learn the distinction and make the correction?
