Artist Color Pencil Multi-Use Matte Pencil, 902 Versatile Violet, Make Up For Ever
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
Bright arrows on the eyes are a great option for a summer party (fast, practical and convenient). In addition, unusual arrows are one of the trends of this season (how to draw them quickly and beautifully - see here).
I liked the pencil right away - in the line you can find as many as 30 shades for every taste. In addition, the product is multifunctional - it can be applied to the eyes, lips, eyebrows, or used for art make-up (if you are going to a theme festival).
I chose a bright purple color, which can be a great accent of the whole look. The product has a soft, pliable texture and a comfortable lead - you can vary the thickness and intensity of the color. I applied the pencil along the lash line and on the lower mucous membrane (firmness - at five, the pencil did not wear off until late at night).
Price: 1 400 rub.
Lipstick Velvetines, Seashell Bra, Lime Crime
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
Thinking over the look for a summer party, I immediately remembered about the lipstick with the "metallic" effect, which is not so easy to "fit" into everyday makeup. But in the summer there is a lot to roam - especially in flowers.
The shade is reminiscent of mermaids and unicorns. Light holographic looks very uniform and beautiful on the lips, shimmers in the rays of the setting sun and in the light of spotlights.
There are legends about the durability of Lime Crime lipsticks - the products withstand even the most severe test drive, they are not afraid of food, water, heat, or kisses (I checked!).
This summer, the brand added Vitamin E and UV protection to the formula - you can safely apply the product to a beach party without fear of dry lips.
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Four-color eyeliner pen for eyes and lips Stylo 4, 03, Clarins
Tested by BeautyHack Editor Natalia Kapitsa
If your childhood was in the early 90s, you should know exactly why the pen with four multicolored rods and the ability to switch them was the object of envy - as, indeed, the multicolored, bright pencil cases.
This year, the Clarins brand made all beauty girls feel nostalgic about that time by releasing the same pen, but only with cosmetic pencils (those who lack nostalgia can read about what happened to the main beauties of that time here).
Not one, but four colors for eyes and lips provide the highest flight of imagination - the field for experimentation is unlimited. And a summer party or festival is the best time to try out the "mini cosmetic bag". Take with you and change the images "on the spot"!
All pencils are very easy to use - even if you were not "friends" with drawing and do not know how to draw straight lines at all, the arrows will turn out to be perfect. Click on the color you want, twirl the pencil and enjoy the thin lead and high pigmentation. An emerald shade will accentuate your eye color, a muted purple will add a spice to your look, and a matte pink will easily replace lipstick.
You can be calm, pencils do not "float" by the end of the day - even the most "wild" dances will withstand without drying your skin. In the composition you will find oil of sunflower, jojoba and black acacia - extra care is provided!
Price: 2 950 rub.
Highlighter to enhance eyebrow color BROWtones, Benefit
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Karina Ilyasova
Colored eyebrows are one of the summer makeup trends. But it is very difficult to apply it even to the most unusual party - yellow, green and blue eyebrows will cause more bewilderment than admiring glances.
However, the Benefit remedy is different. It resembles regular eyebrow gel, but with a bright tone. In the package, the shade looks very saturated, but it lays on the eyebrows in a light layer, only slightly emphasizing the shade (and at the same time the color of your eyes).
The product has a comfortable brush - even the most unruly eyebrows can be styled in the right direction. Visually, the hairs become thicker, and even if nature has not rewarded you with sable eyebrows, at a party you will amaze everyone with their density (and color!).
Price: 2,000 rubles.
Glitter Diamond Crushers, Black Unicorn, Lime Crime
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Karina Ilyasova
An unusual product resembling liquid glitter in texture can be applied anywhere - on eyes, body, lips (as a top coat or solo - as our editor-in-chief did when she tested lipsticks "blindly").
What is important - the glitter adheres firmly to the skin even without a base and gives a beautiful shine (especially if you “spread” them with a brush). But the glitter applicator is also convenient - it blends the product beautifully, creating natural highlights.
We apply glitter on the eyelids with the entire editorial staff and shine (under the sun and without it). Black Unicorn is perfect for smoky eyes - I apply it on the center of the eyelid and in the inner corner of the eye. But it looks great on the eyes and solo - especially if you paint over the space between the eyelashes (this will make the look more expressive).
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Gel eyeliner AMC Eyeliner Gel, 84, Inglot
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
I always wanted to experiment with bright arrows of unusual colors. In the summer, there were a lot of opportunities for this - festivals, theme parties, where bright outfits and active makeup are appropriate!
The shade of the product resembles liquid gouache (remember, a set of 6 jars, with which real children's masterpieces were obtained?). But in terms of consistency and finish, this is a high-quality eyeliner, which is not so easy to remove from the eyes.
Even a beginner can draw arrows. For color intensity, apply two coats - the liner will not roll or peel off. But be patient - so that the product does not get imprinted on the eyelid, you need to wait a couple of minutes until it hardens before our eyes.
Price: 840 rub.
Glitter Diamond Crushers, Unicorn Queen, Lime Crime
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
The product is a real explosion of sparkles in a bottle! For make-up, only this glitter is enough - I apply it on my eyes, making a "base" of creamy shadows of a dusty pink shade and thickly paint over the eyelashes. The image is very bright, but not pretentious.
Violet in a bottle, before our eyes glitter shimmers with all shades of the spectrum - from pink to violet. To keep the eye from looking flat, paint over the fold with shadows and blend them well towards the outer corner. And the bravest ones can apply the product to the lips, and 100+ Instagram likes are guaranteed to you!
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Smart Color Mascara, 02 Electric Blue, Kiko Milano
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Karina Ilyasova
I have long, thick, jet black eyelashes, and most colored mascaras “lose” their tint. But not this remedy! The bright blue pigment reminds of the sea, cloudless sky and imminent vacation (to which the mascara will travel with me).
She has a very comfortable brush with triangular fibers. All villi are different in length, density and volume - the result will impress even the most skeptical ladies.
The mascara gives good separation, length and volume to the lashes (especially when applied in two layers).
Price: 490 rub.
Waterproof mascara for volume and curling eyelashes Paradise Extatic, L'Oreal Paris
Tested by BeautyHack special correspondent Daria Mironova
In evening make-up I always choose an accent on the eyes, but in summer (especially in the heat) I don't want to overload my face with “heavy” make-up. The way out was found quickly - to make the look bright and expressive at the expense of eyelashes.
Mascara from L'Oreal promised to help. She promised - and helped! Already from the first layer I noticed lengthening, volume and good separation without the effect of "spider" legs. And if you apply a second layer, the wow-effect and attention are definitely provided for you!
But these are not all the advantages of mascara. The product is waterproof, but it didn't make the first version worse (you can read about why I love his usual “colleague” here). Rather, on the contrary - your eyes will not "flow" at the most crucial moment (or if you spontaneously decide to dive into the pool).
It is actually pleasant to use - soft villi do not scratch the eyes, allowing you to paint over the eyelashes from the roots (from which the volume will be even greater). And in the composition there is castor oil, which will strengthen the eyelashes.
Price: about 600 rubles.
Glitter Diamond Crushers, Unicorn, Lime Crime
Tested by BeautyHack special correspondent Anastasia Lyagushkina
In the summer I use a minimum of makeup, but for special events I do shining makeup (glitter and shimmer look especially good on tanned skin).
If my soul asks for sparkle and spectacles, I always choose Lime Crime - durability, comfort and pleasant impressions are guaranteed.
Shade Unicorn - pale pink with lilac undertone. They lie flat on the eyelid with a weightless layer. They can be mixed with eyeshadow for a softer, fuller look, or they can be applied in two coats for maximum radiance.
I chose the second option: I applied shadows, a little mascara, concealer, made light beach curls and, in the form of a fairy, went to a summer party on the waterfront - I received a lot of compliments and questions “what did you put on your eyes?”.
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Matte lipstick Matte Constance, 34, Vivienne Sabo
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
The last thing you want to worry about in the heat in the open area is the lipstick's durability. Therefore, I choose matte products that will not let you down and will not create discomfort when wearing (there is no desire to suffer from dryness and there is no way to constantly correct the flowing contour).
Coral lipstick is your ideal companion for a festival, open-air or picnic. She is not afraid of anything: heat, food, drinks, kisses - she will withstand everything for 7 hours.
Very comfortable formula - after application you forget that there is lipstick on your lips. And the applicator is convenient - you can even put on make-up in a car at high speed or in extreme conditions (that's why it's a festival!).
Price: 195 rub.
Shadow pencil Luxury Eye Crayon, 12 Burgundy, Kiss Professional
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
The problem with purple eyeshadows is finding the right undertones so that your eyes don't look tired and teary. The brand managed to create just that. A light satin finish, creamy texture and shading complete the picture - it is doubly pleasant to use the product!
The intensity of the shade is easy to vary - shadows in one layer can be suitable even for a daytime look. And the color in two layers looks very saturated and does not roll off - you can apply a top coat and not worry that the eye makeup will be erased earlier than it should be.
Price: 590 rub.
Coloring jelly for hair Colorista Hair Make Up, L'Oreal Paris
Tested by BeautyHack SMM Manager Alexandra Grishina
In the summer I live with the motto "Change!" and happily experimenting with looks (especially hair color). But in the heat, the ends are already exposed to great stress - persistent staining can make them more brittle. And after beautiful photos on Instagram against the backdrop of the ocean, the hair will have to be repainted again - pink and purple tips are not suitable for every daytime look.
L'Oreal Paris has found a solution for the same “desperate survivors” - a dyeing jelly for hair that can be washed off with water (photographs must be taken before swimming behind the buoys).
Why everyone should try this tool: Every day you can create a new look - a wide palette for both brunettes and blondes. The jelly is easy to apply and distribute through the hair - you don't need any help or gloves.
It took 10 minutes to create a new look with strands of vibrant fuchsia. I applied the product to dry strands, which I had previously wound on a curling iron. I washed off the remnants of the product from my hands with ordinary soap (the skin was not stained) and went to enjoy the beautiful pink curls that shimmered beautifully in the sun in different colors - you can vary the intensity of the shade.
Price: 355 rub.
Shadow pencil Eyeshadow Pencil, 10 Sugar, Provoc
Tested by BeautyHack special correspondent Victoria Osipova
Heading to an event after a full day in a stuffy office, and you don't have the opportunity to wash off your makeup and reapply? This remedy is for you.
The eyeshadow is very easy to apply. The product has a very plastic gel texture and a bright shade, which, when shaded, gives a very delicate glow and a shiny finish.
I applied the product to the entire movable eyelid, shading to the outer corner - a few minutes, and bright eye makeup is ready!
Price: 650 rub.
Lipstick for lips Ivan-tea, OR-1, Secret Nature
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
We expect perfect application and durability from bright lipstick, but we forget that such products dry out the delicate skin of the lips, which needs to be taken care of not only in the cold season.
The lipstick of the Korean brand thought about it - it contains cherry blossom flowers and grapes from Jeju Island, which will soften the lips and make them hydrated.
The bright shade in the package remains the same on the lips. A semi-matte finish will add more radiance to the eyes and cheekbones. I will definitely take the product on vacation - the berry color will beautifully accentuate the tan and make the lips visually plump.
Price: 899 rub.
Dye for blondes Unicorn Hair, Anime, Lime Crime
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
Hair is my "sore spot" - it is very thin, brittle and grows poorly (I talked about what means helped to smooth the situation here).
Therefore, one had only to dream about changing the image for one time - most light hair does not react well even to temporary paints and toning agents (the color may "go" into a rusty reddishness or not be washed off completely).
But I decided to take a chance with this paint, because the founder of the Dow Deer brand (our compatriot known as Ksenia Vorotova) has been working on dye for blonde hair for three whole years.
The cans were more than enough for shoulder-length hair. The product does not dry hair - there is no ammonia in the composition. It is washed off evenly (to completely remove the blue pigment, it is enough to wash your hair 7-10 times). But keep in mind that if you have discolored curls, the color will differ from what is stated on the package - the Anime shade will turn out to be rather turquoise.
Price: about 2,000 rubles.
Lipstick Color Riche Matte, 471 Vodoo, L'Oreal Paris
Tested by BeautyHack editorial assistant Karina Ilyasova
The brand's line of matte lipsticks is so extensive that you can easily find a tool for any occasion - make-up for the office, for a business meeting, for a date and for a party. In the summer, the soul asks for experimentation, and the cheekbones - for extra shine, so I chose a matte lipstick so as not to "overload" the image with sparkles.
The shade of Vodoo is reminiscent of a bright rose or garden flower petals. But the matte finish makes it richer and more interesting.
The comfortable texture does not dry the lips, and the formula allows the lipstick to survive a glass of water and long conversations (but it is better to put it in a bag - in a few hours the lipstick will need to be renewed).
Price: about 400 rubles.
Ombre Lifeproof Eyeshadow, 06, Yves Rocher
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
Sticky eyeshadows are always a godsend for a quick make-up. Just a few movements and your look is ready! This product has a very rich shade and good durability - you can dance until the morning and not be afraid that your eye makeup will go home earlier than you.
But it is better to remove makeup with a two-phase remedy (an excellent one can be found here) - it will dissolve pigments faster, and you will not have to actively rub your eyes, injuring the mucous membrane.
Price: 890 rub.
Lipstick Mark Epic Lip, Sparkle On, Avon
Tested by editorial assistant Anya Khobotova
This season, the brand has been generous with lipsticks in bright colors and has released a whole collection in which you can find unusual lipsticks for every taste - from transparent with large shimmer to bright yellow and charcoal black (these can be left for Halloween in the fall).
I chose a raspberry shade with a fine shimmer. Sequins do not look vulgar and give the image a special charm. Even if the makeup is calm, this lipstick will change it in a few seconds - a great option for a quick transformation.
The product is not very durable, but it is convenient to renew it directly from the package. And the pigmentation is beyond praise - one layer is enough to shine bright, as Rihanna advises us!
Price: 450 rub.
Cream shadow-transformer The One Color Impact, Deep Indigo, Oriflame
Tested by BeautyHack editor Daria Sizova
The festival is a good reason for bright eye makeup (for example, smoky eyes according to this instruction). But for such a make-up you need a good "backing" - shadows that will not roll, but will blend well and easily apply.
The Oriflame Limited Edition is just that. A deep blue hue will beautifully accentuate the color of green and gray eyes, making the look brighter. And smoky eyes will make you unusual: the festival is a time for experiment, and you can refuse from the usual "smoky" make-up.
The shadows look beautiful on the eyes and solo, and you can apply them with your fingertips (if you urgently need to change the image from day to evening or quickly do makeup).
