Are you hoping to make your skin glow during the off-season? Us too, don't worry, and we know all the tips and tricks to land that *sun-kissed* look without help from the gleaming summer sun rays.
Here's a list of insider products that will give you that Los Angeles beach babe look we've all been dying to achieve during the wintertime.
First up for an all-over transformation...
Kosas bronzer
This bronzer by Kosas is the *key* to giving your face an all around glow. Why fly out to Cali when you could get a *fab* glow from home with the help of Kosas? After all, it is called the Sun Show bronzer for a reason. Sephora, $34
The key to a natural flush...
Tarte blush
Tarte's blush will give your cheeks that pinky flush we all miss having during the summer. All you need is a light dab on each cheek to give the effect of a quick vacay to Cabo. Ulta, $15
A must-have for the glow...
Glossier highlighter
Glossier's holographic highlighter is *everything*. It comes in 3 different shades; topaz, quartz and moonstone. Not only will it make your bronzer and blush *pop*, but it'll give your face that wet, dewy, *beachy* effect you've been missin'. Glossier, $22
The secret ingredient...
E.l.f booster drops
The E.l.f booster drops will enhance your skin's natural glow while whipping away the winter sadness and replacing it with that *iconic* sunkissed effect. All you have to do is apply a few drops to your fingers and then dab it on your face just like you would with normal serum. Ulta, $10
Don't forget the shiny lips...
Laneige lipgloss
In order to achieve the overall sun-kissed *lewk*, you need a product that will enhance your lip's natural color while giving them a subtle glow. Laneige's lipgloss does exactly that, as it's a color-free gloss, with a *perf* shiny finish. Sephora, $17
A makeup free solution...
Bioré brightening collection
Bioré's brand-new brightening collection is just what you need to brighten your skin without any help from makeup. The brightening jelly cleanser is a smart choice for an everyday wash that will clear your pores while illuminating your face. Walmart, $6
