Are you one with nature? For me summer is all about being outdoors - enjoying the warmth of the sun and the serenity of nature around me. Unfortunately, living in New York City and traveling back and forth as part of my career, I rarely get the opportunity to fully enjoy nature and all of it’s beauty. However, that doesn’t stop me from taking advantage of all of it’s benefits! Especially during summers, my personal makeup bag is loaded with products containing various fruit, flower and plant ingredients. Want to know what they are? Well, here are my top must have products that will help you feel like you’re one with nature!

1. Tarte Double Dose Lip Gloss – In addition to vitamin C-filled pomegranate extract, skin brightening acerola extract, and inflammation-reducing maracuja extract, this gloss contains acai extract and an antioxidant-rich goji berry extract. Together they soften skin and promote rapid cell regeneration. Try it in Go Go Goji.

2. Korres Watermelon Tinted Moisturizer - This tinted moisturizer not only has SPF 30 but also contains an antioxidant-rich watermelon extract that counteracts free-radical damage. It’s light, breathable, and water-resistant – a perfect miosturizer for the summer.

3. Yves Saint Laurent MASCARA VOLUME EFFET FAUX CILS Luxurious Mascara – This mascara is one of my favorite beauty products of all time. Besides the heavenly smell of roses, this formula achieves intense, dramatic lashes with a single stroke. It’s never clumpy and comes in a range of great colors that are meant to compliment one’s unique eye color.

4. Smashbox O-Glow Intuitive Cheek Color - This is the most original blush out there! The secret formula reacts with your personal skin chemistry and transforms from a silky clear gel into the shade you blush naturally. It is also packed with Goji Berry-C Complex™, ginkgo biloba, pomegranate seed, and marine botanicals, making it super healthy for your skin.

5. NVEY ECO Organic Creative Eye Color System – This palette contains great colors that are perfect for achieving day and night looks. The best part is that all of the eyeshadows contain soothing chamomile and antioxidants A, C, and E - great for dry and sensitive skin.

6. The Balm Pick-Up Liners – These eyeliners are filled with various vegetable oils and won’t irritate even the most sensitive eyes. I absolutely adore the packaging - it’s compact, which that allows me to keep more than one shade of eyeliner with me at all times.

Try these products and enjoy the little pieces of nature inside of each!
