You can achieve a beautiful summer glow without the harmful effects of the sun. It’s all about getting your hands on some great beauty must-haves that will add some glimmer to your cheeks, complexion, or even your body. Whether it’s a great moisturizer or toner that boasts some sheen, or makeup that is infused with some glittery shine, you can find a great glow product that will elevate your summer look. —Jennifer Cox
Glow Toner, the latest addition to Charlotte Tilbury’s skincare lineup that comes out June 23rd, is an hydrating glow-giving toner that creates a gentle resurfacing effect without acids. It’s suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin, and it will refine the look of pores while cushioning the skin in moisture for a glowing, youthful, healthy look. In clinical trials, skin was two times more hydrated in one hour and skin felt two times smoother after 28 days.
