Summer is sneaking up on us...

Summer is sneaking up on us...

I’m still not sure what month it is, and it literally takes me a moment to remember when I’m put on the spot. These days I tend to say August when I mean to say April (it’s happened numerous times) and I blame the whole COVID/quarantine situation rather than early-onset senility. Regardless of which season my brain may think we’re in, May is upon us and that means summer is officially right around the corner.

Summer is usually synonymous with travel, but this year I’ll be jet-setting vicariously through Anastasia Beverly Hills’ new face palettes. With names like “Italian Summer,” “Off to Costa Rica” and “Tropical Getaway,” you get a bronzer, highlighter and blush so you can get a sun-kissed glow even if you’re a mere armchair traveler. 

Designed to deliver lightweight, blendable, buildable color in a dermatologist-tested, cruelty-, paraben-, fragrance- and oil-free formula, these palettes make it easy to get a healthy-looking glow while freeing up some space in your makeup bag. But there’s one hitch… Mark your calendar for their launch on May 3rd, because I’m willing to bet they’ll sell out fast!
