Moisturize your feet that means heels, and the cuticles on your toes. Make sure to do it every night before going to sleep to keep your feet looking sandal ready. Use a salve like Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream. Or for on the go cuticle touch ups use Sephora’s Cuticle Care Pen.

To be completely honest I’ve never looked twice at the Clarins counter. I’ve always associated the brand with skin care and wouldn’t think to browse at their make up. On Friday Lisa and I were searching for the perfect orange/coral lip colour, that is one of the most important lip trends of the season. I’d checked out most of my go to brands and came up short. Then I came across this Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm in orange slice. It  has treatment ingredients: Shea Butter, Wild Mango and Olive to moisturize the lips, and Vitamins A and E to protect. The texture is non sticky like a lip balm, but super shiny like a gloss. The colour is perfect for achieving that juicy tangerine  colour that was seen all over the runways for Spring. For a sheer application of colour just wear it alone. For full on colour it’s so good on top of an orange based lipstick and liner.

Look out for our next Smudge video on how to achieve this season’s coral lip trend.

Now that we are well into Summer most of us are looking for a little refreshment.  MAC Fix+  is an amazing hydrating mist that is the perfect antidote for sweltering Summer days.  Packed with spring water to refresh, cucumber and chamomile to soothe, Fix+ can be spritzed onto the face before or after make up.  This is one of those products that you try once and it’s instant love!

Expert Tip: Spray directly onto the face before moisturizer for extra hydration.
