Fresh Start

It’s time to stop lugging around that hefty makeup bag—spring calls for tiny purses and clutches.

Flawless skin, some healthy colour, and a bouncy mane are all one needs for the warm season (it’s coming, we promise). Pare down your daytime beauty essentials in three easy steps.

1. Scrap your foundation, moisturizer and SPF for a convenient little triple duty BB Cream by Estée Lauder. $45 at Estée Lauder, www.esteelauder.com

 

2. Swap your lipstick and blush for a tube that does it all, with Ilia’s freshly launched Multi-Purpose Lip to Cheek Stick. $34 at www.iliabeauty.com

 

 

3. Free yourself of that clunky hairbrush and a separate compact mirror and get this smart pop-up brush/mirror combo by Joe Fresh. $10, Joe Fresh at www.joefresh.com

 

By ditching the clutter, your arms will thank you too. —Anya Georgijevic
