Under $100 Summer Beauty Essentials

With summer most definitely on the horizon, we’ve lined up a few of our beauty picks for a long, hot season in the sun. Whether you’re relaxing poolside at home, firing up the barbecue with friends or planning a roadie, make sure these babies come along with…

 

Plant Apothecary RE: FRESH Organic Toning Face Mist

Summertime is when facial mists really come into their own, refreshing instantly – especially when kept in the fridge. Plant Apothecary’s RE: FRESH Organic Toning Face Mist is a little wonder that hydrates and nourishes your skin with soothing cucumber, rosewater, and aloe vera, while toning and refreshing it with witch hazel and antibacterial lemongrass. It’s the perfect pick-me-up for whenever you need a little boost, and an excellent toner for between cleansing and moisturising. And it’s great for setting makeup, too – spritz a fine mist after applying foundation or powder, and your look will last way longer even on the steamiest of days.

 

Alder New York Cleansing Facial Brush

Designed to boost the efficiency of your daily face cleanser, gently exfoliate skin, improve circulation, and relieve muscle tension, Alder New York’s cute as a button Cleansing Facial Brush makes a perfect addition to any summertime skincare routine. Made up of over 1.25 million gentle nylon bristles that sweep away dry and dead skin to leave your face feeling soft and looking fresh, it even comes with a sleek storage stand so it can dry between uses. It’s the perfect choice for helping remove even the stubbornest sunblock, too.

 

Aether Summer Solstice Palette

The only palette you need for parties throughout the silly season,  Aether’s Summer Solstice Palette lets you play with an amazing twelve, golden hour shades in matte, shimmer, satin, metallic and duo-chrome to have your eyes glowing like a sunset. The pigment is even infused with crystals Amber, Ruby and Topaz,  to illuminate the skin with their light-reflective properties. Formulated with organic coconut oil and organic shea butter to create a smooth, super buttery texture for one swipe application, this palette is also sustainably packaged: with the removal of eyeshadow pans and elastic, the paper palette is fully recyclable – the first in the industry!

 

PAUME Antibacterial Hand Sanitiser – Travel size

The ultimate road trip BFF, PAUME Hand Sanitiser nourishes as it protects, and it looks super chic too. Formulated with 69 per cent ethyl alcohol to kill harmful bacteria while moisturising the skin with a unique blend of premium plant-based emollients, it also has notes of crisp citrus and aromatic cedar, to delight your senses every time you use it. We love that the 90ml travel bottle of this little wonder is made with 100 per cent previously recycled plastic and it’s reusable, so you can refill it as many times as you want, and then recycle it when you’re ready for a new one. 

 

People4Ocean Sunscreen Vegan SPF50

Sunscreen is a must all year round, but even more so when we’re out and about in the great outdoors over the warmer months. People4Ocean’s Sunscreen Vegan SPF50 is an award-winning sunscreen that uses wax from the Candelilla plant instead of beeswax to provide UVA/UVB protection to even the most fragile skin, including children (3 months and over) and adults with sensitive skin. Mineral-based, 100 per cent natural and vegan, the lightweight cream is also infused with spa-grade essential oils and organic coconut oil to moisturise and protect. Oh, and little goes a long way! People4Ocean don’t dilute their sunscreens, resulting in richer, more concentrated creams than conventional lotions.

 

Aleph Beauty Prep/Finish Powder

If you like a little glow but definitely not too much shine, this powder from Aleph is your summertime makeup essential. It delivers a pore-refining invisible second skin that protects against blue light and environmental pollutants while extending makeup longevity, and is non-drying and never cakey. Ideal for those prone to rosacea, oily skin or larger pores, and also if you love a more matte finish, Aleph Beauty Prep/Finish Powder is best applied with the Aleph Powder Brush. You can use it as a prep product to achieve a fuller coverage of their Concealer/Foundation, or as a finishing powder to set your makeup, including the eyelids.
