Advocating for natural, gentle skincare, Glow Recipe aims to make this once Korean niche as accessible as possible. Founded by two skincare gurus Sarah Lee and Christine Chang (who share over 20 years of experience in the industry) they are bringing the SoKo glow right to your bathroom.

The skincare range contains natural ingredients such as banana, avocado, blueberry, papaya, plum, pineapple and watermelon to nourish the skin. And, if you look at the small print too (and get all sciency) you’ll find more skin-loving substances such as hyaluronic acid (which helps retain water in your skin) alpha hydroxyl acids (great for anti-aging), and retinol (which helps stimulate collagen) and that’s just the start of the list. There’s a reason that once you start using these products, you’re not going to want to change your skincare ever again.

Here are some products to add to your cart ASAP:

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops

Inspired by Korean makeup artists, this is the first non-cosmetic highlighter that uses skin-friendly ingredients to give you that enviable glow. Proving you don’t need makeup to achieve glassy skin, this product will instantly highlight skin while the vitamin-rich formula will hydrate at the same time.

There is a glowing light at the end of the bleak tunnel that is 2020. January 1st is kicking off 2021 with a bright start, as JLo confirms her new cosmetics line, JLo Beauty. The 51-year-old mogul has been dropping hints on her instagram over the past three months, alluding to a new project she has been working on.

A selfie captioned: “Bronze Glow. JLo Beauty Coming Soon”, confirmed that she would be dropping—a presumably bronzed, glowing and rich-toned—makeup line. “This isn’t just a passion project, it’s a 30-year dream. I can’t wait to share my skincare secrets with you!!”, stated the icon on instagram, accompanied by a video of Lopez posing on a beach with glistening, honey-like skin.

JLo is no stranger to the beauty industry, and with her original perfume franchise—an absolute staple for every gal in the 00’s—estimated at being worth over $2 billion, we have high expectations for this new line (and all the faith in the world).

The popstar revealed way back in 2018 that she will be coming out with a cosmetics line, but wanted to take her time and not rush the process, stating, “I’ve been working on it for a long time because I don’t want to put just anything out”.

People have been taking to social media to express their excitement for the coming beauty line and the influx of positivity is undeniable. It’s no surprise that people are anticipating this launch; the pop sensation arguably has become known for her warm and shimmering complexion just as much as she has for her acting and singing achievements.

JLo Beauty drops officially January 1st ; however, the official Instagram account of the beauty brand (@jlobeauty) has confirmed that “early access” will be available from December 8th, 2020.

Nothing says summer like sitting under an evening sunset with a glass of sangria in hand, looking like a tanned, luminous goddess. Stepping into the sunny months gives you the perfect opportunity to give your skin that much deserved rest it needs. A chance to put down the foundation bottle and focus on getting that sun kissed, golden hour glow we all crave. Even though holidays have been put on hold for the short run (*tear runs down face*), there’s nothing stopping you from finding the perfect skincare products to create an irresistible evening glow. So, at Voir, we’ve given you a helping hand to achieve that ‘I’ve just left the Mediterranean’ vibe we so desperately need. No thanks wanted.

Isle of Paradise Self-Tanning Drops£19.95Bronzed skin is the epitome of summer. It really screams “I’ve been lying on a beach for the past two weeks.” While the sun usually does the trick, there is nothing wrong in going faux. Self-tanning drops allow you to create that custom tan for a beautifully bronzed look. Just by simply working a few of the drops into your skin, you are beach ready. Top tip: Go gradually with this. We are looking for sun-kissed, not satsuma. Shop the product on Beauty Bay

Charlotte Tilbury Unisex Healthy Glow All-Year Hydrating Summer Tint Moisturiser£35.00No one likes harsh foundation lines, especially in the summer. It’s just not a look we want in life. So, what’s great about this tinted moisturizer is that it adapts to your natural skin tone as you apply it. It gives you an instant glow, locks in the hydration and is super lightweight for the sun. No cake faces here! Shop the product at John Lewis

Glossier Super Glow£24.00As the sun goes down, it’s your skins time to shine. And everybody loves a serum to do the job.

They’re moisturizing, lightweight and ideal for the summer. The Glossier Super Glow serum is infused with Vitamin C and Magnesium; the perfect duo for radiant, energized skin. Just by applying a little bit of this in the morning, you’ll have that ‘lit-from-within look’ by sunset. An absolute holy grail!Shop the product at Glossier

M.A.C Strobe Face Glaze

£21.00

If you’re looking for one product to give off those holiday summer vibes, it’s highlighter. What we love about this glaze is that it gives off an iridescent, dewy glow without any excessive shimmer or sparkle that can sometimes look tacky. It contains ‘pearlescent particles’ to add dimension to your face. With this stuff, your skin is going to beam.

Shop the product at M.A.C Cosmetics

Fenty Beauty Gloss bomb – Universal Lip Luminizer£17Glossy lips take centre stage when creating that summer skin glow. So, of course, this is where bad gal Rhi Rhi (aka Rihanna) steps in. We all love a bit of Fenty Beauty, so with one swipe of this Gloss Bomb, your lips will transform into fuller, dazzling smackers! Bonus: Its super shiny with a non-sticky formula, so that summer breeze won’t get in your way!Shop the product on Fenty Beauty

Makeup Revolution Molten Body Liquid Illuminator

£15.00 Don’t forget to give your body the evening glow it deserves as well! Just before you head outside to soak in the rest of the sun, apply this to your shoulders, arms, collarbones and even brow bones for a healthy glow! No wonder it’s described as ‘a beautiful body lava’.

Beware: You may need to pull out the shades with this one. You’ll be gleaming. Shop the product here at Revolution Beauty

The post A Guide to Golden-Hour Summer Skin appeared first on Voir Fashion.

If you’re like us, you’re slowly coming round to the fact summer 2020 will be more BBQs in the garden with the sound of the sea protruding through our laptop speakers than cocktails and a bag of Lays on the beach. Cry.

But just because holiday plans are being cancelled, doesn’t mean we should have to cancel that holiday glow too. We’ve made a list of the most natural fake tans for you to try this summer to ensure you still get that Ibiza glow from the comfort of your own home.

Nip & Fab Faux Tan Mist This water-based tan contains Aloe Vera and glycolic acid to help exfoliate and create an even tan. If you’re not a fan of mousse based tans, this one will be easy to apply and offer a glowy finish.

How much? £19.99 RRP

Where from? Currently available at ASOS, Boots and Nip & Fab.com (where it is currently on sale for £10)

ALLEVEN Colour Shield This spray-on formula is loved by MUA’s and tanning professionals. This one is perfect if you only need a tan for one day (we’re thinking for those insta pics…we got you). After a shower and some exfoliation, it will easily come off so you don’t need to worry about scrubbing off a layer of skin.

How much? £38.00 for 100ml

Where from? Currently available at Cult Beauty in shades Ivory, Pearl, Sand, and Amber

How much? £21.00Where from? Available from the Clarins website, Boots and Feel Unique

St. Moriz Spray Tan Finally, what we’ve all been waiting for, St Moriz is a firm favourite for good reason, and now they have released their first tanning mist which gives you the chance to control your shade. If you like a lighter colour then leave on for one hour, or if you’re aiming for a deep rich tan then leave on for three hours.

How much? £8.99

Where from? Available at Superdrug and the St Moriz website

Bondi Sands Aero Aerated Self-Tanning Ultra Dark FoamDon’t let the slightly green tint when first applied put you off, apply this before bed, and then wash off in the morning and you’ll be left with a deep, instant tan that, if you moisturise daily, will keep you looking glowy for 7- 10 days. How much? £19.99 but currently on sale for £15.99 Where from? Superdrug, Boots and Look Fantastic

Luna Bronze Glow Gradual Tanning MoisturiserPerfect for beginners who want to build a gradual tan over time, whilst incorporating vitamins A, B, and E to help boost skin texture. How much? £24Where from? Currently available at Cult Beauty
