At first glance, this concealer is a little scary. However, if you've ever seen a color wheel, you know that orange and blue are directly opposite one another. In makeup, this means that orange-y shades can best counteract the blue tones in under-eye circles. I have been loving the orange-y concealer in this duo by Laura Mercier for exactly that reason. It's an interesting formula - it's not super creamy so you kind of have to press harder than you think to get the product, but that makes it less likely to slip and slide away once you apply it to your under eye area. It blends so super quickly that you really don't even need a brush, and once it's blended in, it doesn't look orange. A few taps with your finger, and it's good to go! I have the lightest shade option, but there is one for everyone.

 

As the weather has started getting warm again, I have been gravitating back toward the springy lip colors as well. This one by NARS is just gorgeous. The Satin Lip Pencils just glide on so nicely and feel so smooth on the lips. For a product not marketed as long lasting, I find they last pretty well. They have a slight sheen without any glitter or shimmer, making your lips look full and healthy. What's not to love?
