Back to make-up: 10 products for a complete beauty look by Smashbox

This year more than ever, September means a new beginning, with the return to the office or school after holidays and especially after two difficult years. Starting again means setting new goals, starting a new path from scratch, or taking a new direction.. so what is the secret to start with the right energy?

The starting point is to direct our style choices towards a colorful, fun, vibrant look, starting from make-up, as the beauty brand Smashbox anticipates, inviting us to express creativity through the make-up we wear every day. The brand, leader in the cosmetics industry, offers an innovative product, created and tested in the Smashbox Studios in Los Angeles to become part of our daily life, starting from the "base". In fact, the primer is one of the most innovative products of the brand, but the offer includes all the necessary steps for a complete make-up routine, to freely express ourselves and our unique beauty.

So what will be the make-up trends for the next season, according to Smashbox? This summer anticipated the trends that will accompany us during the next fall/winter season: vibrant colors, metallic and glitter shades, pop lipstick tones and naturally glowy skin are just some of the trends that announce a return to make-up and the desire to express our personality and style through it.

If in the last period, in fact, the focus was only on eye makeup, due to the face mask that hides the lower part of our face, so now it is time to focus on the lips and face make-up too. So let's find out together the essential steps to recreate a perfect make-up for fall.

Face make up

Starting from the primer, the brand's must-have product, we create a base that will not only make our complexion plain hiding small imperfections, but helps make the beauty look last longer. Indeed, for Smashbox "the perfect base for every look starts with a flawless skin". And we can't disagree!
Among the best sellers there is the Vitamin Glow Primer, with a vegan ultra-light formula rich in precious vitamins for our skin; the Oil and Shine Control Primer, ideal for oily or impure skin thanks to the sebum-regulating formula; and The Original Photo Finish Primer, the brand's first primer, blends the texture of the skin and creates a smooth and perfect base for applying the foundation.

We know that sunscreen is necessary all year round, not just during summer. And that's why to protect our skin while ensuring a light and radiant coverage, the product to choose is a tinted moisturizer like Halo Healthy Glow All In One Tinted Moisturizer, a tinted and moisturizing cream, which can replace the foundation, infused with primer to ensure a long lasting effect; this vegan formula contains niacinamide and gold particles to enhance the natural brightness of the skin. To further enrich the look, we then can move on to the foundation or a light contouring thanks to the The Cali Contour Palette.

All Eyes on you

In addition to mascara and eyeliner, eyeshadow can make a difference and give a twist to every simple and minimal look. Smashbox's Always On Cream Shadow is the special ally for our seasonal make-up: available in 15 different shades, which can be mixed together to obtain a unique and personalized tint, it will last over 24 hours with a very cool opaque effect, thanks to the addition of primer in the vegan formulation. To complete the eye make-up, the Super Fan mascara is an essential. A beauty secret? To ensure extra volume and a long lasting effect, apply Photo Finish Lash Primer before mascara.

Lips on top

Lips are back this year as the protagonists of beauty looks, and the key word is color. Given the frequent use of the face masks, however, all we need is a long-lasting product that at the same time hydrates the lips. That's the reason to choose Be Legendary Prime & Plush Lipstick, a lipstick with a vegan formula infused with primer and ceramides that ensures a perfect texture for a long time, moisturizing and protecting the lips. Available in 30 different shades, to choose a different color every day based on your mood and outfit.
