Glowing skin is most definitely ‘in’. Matte skin came into favour for a bit, but dewy and complexions are definitely en vogue. Here’s a product that has beauty and is on budget. Coming in at just $8, this is a truly lovely way to create glowing skin.


e.l.f. cosmetics has done it again with a cult quality product at a budget ‘dupe’ price. The Beautifully Bare Natural Glow Lotion from e.l.f. is a luminescent, lightweight lotion, containing ‘micro shimmering pearls’ that e.l.f. say offer a natural, ‘lit from within glow’.
The lotion base has light, moisturising properties, and so for a teen would be perfect on its own or for older, drier skin, could be used as a primer under foundation or a serum under moisturiser, to give you glowing skin.

The active ingredients are aloe vera, vitamin E and antioxidants from grape and orange.
The trend is still strong for radiant, glowing skin, although there is a fine line between radiant and oily looking, so find what works best for you. I’d avoid putting on on my nose as my nose is ‘radiant’ enough.
If you want a BB type cream, mix a little of this with your regular foundation.
All e.l.f. skincare products are free from Parabens, Sulfates, and Phthalates.

I used this lotion and it is a natural way which provides a lasting and real glow to the skin. I would like to recommend it to everyone.
