When you’re working and busy, it’s easy to bypass what is going on in your makeup bag. All you ever do is reach in for the same blusher pot and the same eyeliner, so it’s really easy to overlook the crushed eyeshadow at the bottom of the bag. It’s easy to miss the fact that you’ve got six products and only three sponges. It’s also very easy to overlook the fact that you’ve been using the same beauty products since high school and, actually, you hate them now. When you don’t know what else is out there, though, it’s easy to keep walking the same beauty walks and stay comfortable. It’s also easy to buy what’s in your budget.

Reading all that, you now should realise that it’s time for an upgrade! This month is the month to sit up and take notice of what you’ve been putting on your face, and when you can buy brand name makeup wholesale, it’s a good time to give your makeup bag a little shake up. And buy a whole new bag while you’re at it; eyeshadow is a lot harder to get out than you think. Below, we’ve got five ways that you can upgrade now so that your makeup bag can be a little more on trend this summer.

Base. Whether you have worn the same foundation type every day for years or not, you need to think about what base you are using. In the warmer weather, you need to look for a lighter base so that you don’t look so caked in makeup. These bases are best to choose from and you can make your makeup go further when you choose the right one.

SPF. If you’re using an older brand of foundation, check out how much SPF is actually in it. When the weather warms up, you need to wear foundation with the right SPF as well as sun lotion alongside it. You can buy moisturisers with a tint in them if you want to have that summer glow without compromising the health of your skin.

Colour. That black Kohl pencil and mascara you’ve used your whole life? It’s boring. It’s great for work, but it’s boring. Switch up your colours with your eyeliner and choose a different colour for mascara for a change. You can enhance your eye colour with the right makeup colour and this chart can help you pick the right one.

Lip. If you’ve been relying on clear gloss, you need to start to adult! Choose a warm colour and embrace it. It may look a little different than you are used to, but you need to change your look a little!

Nails. It’s nice to choose a bold colour for your makeup bag, but you can switch it up for the season with a beautiful pastel shade. The lighter you go, the chicer your nails look.

Upgrade your makeup bag and feel confident, brighter and more evolved!
