Cargo Suited to a Tea Set

At first glance, Cargo’s Suited to a Tea Set appears to be another palette of cream-based eyeshadows. But looks can be deceiving, because rest assured, this palette is so much more. Press shades like Bloomsbury into lips and top with gloss to create DIY custom shades for lips that wear from day to night. That’s not all; pink powders can be used to give cheeks a flirty flush. Now that’s something to blush about.

Tweezerman Eyenhance Brow Definer and Highlighter

The art of achieving Lily Collins-quality brows takes more than a heavy-duty brow pencil. In fact, behind every bold brow is a soft highlight placed strategically to define statement arches. Tweezerman’s Eyenhance Brow Definer and Highlighter Duo is a dual ended pencil wizard that offers two-for-one defining and highlighting benefits. It comes complete with a sharpener, which you will need for regular use.

Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner

If eyeliner that doubles as eye shadow is the stuff your beauty dreams are made of, then Stila has made them all come true. Designed as a creamy liner, Global Artistry Director for Stila Cosmetics, Sarah Lucero, used the cult classic Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner to create Spring/Summer 2014’s burgundy rimmed eye look at Rebecca Minkoff. Those without steady hands for expert precision need not worry; the waterproof liner can also be used as an eye shadow. The perfect smoky eye is as easy as apply, line and smudge.

Philosophy Amazing Grace Multi-Tasking Oil

This is one philosophy we recommend embracing. For all its natural conditioning oils, this multi-tasking oil will you have you singing “Amazing Grace.” In true double beauty form, this product can be used in the bath or on the body to moisturize skin. Wear it on its own as a sweet floral musk fragrance, and if that’s not enough, the oil works just as well on hair. Run a drop of oil through strands for maximum shine.

Josie Maran 100% Argan Oil

Rumoured to be the miracle product of all miracle products, this all-natural oil is paraben and sulfate free. Grown organically in Morocco, Argan Oil’s vitamin E and fatty acids work hydrating wonders on skin, nails and hair. Stars like Eva Mendes and Marian Cotillard swear by it to restore moisture to dry cuticles, reduce wrinkles and treat split ends. How’s that for heavenly?

Revlon – Base & Polish

We all know better than to take shortcuts with nail care, but ColorStay Gel Envy Longwear Nail Enamel covers colour and care in a single bottle. Polish-wearers will want to get their hands on their 1 colour + 1 base system, which speeds up the painting process with its double-serving colour plus base formula. While choosing from these shades is no easy task, we suggest taking a cue from the white manis spotted on the Spring/Summer 2014 Band of Outsiders, Calla and Prabal Gurung runways.
