3. NYX Stick Blush

Flushed cheeks can instantly make you look more radiant and youthful. Unfortunately, the wrong application can leave you looking a bit clownish. For seamless, natural colour turn to NYX’s creamy sticks. Not only are they super easy to apply, but also leave a lovely glow on your cheeks.

5. L’Oreal Rouge Caresse Lipstick

A swipe of lipstick can elevate any look. Although matte shades are ultra-chic, they do require some maintenance. Instead, try your hand at L’Oreal’s balmy lipsticks. The soft colours and luminous finish make it practically fool-proof.
