Summer beauty is all about fresh skin, tousled hair and some healthy colour. I think I just found the only palette I want to use this year to achieve the perfect, sun-kissed glow! The Charlotte Tilbury Instant Look in a Palette is composed of the perfect of combination of brown and beige hues, creating a natural looking flush. I got the one aptly named Beauty Glow but there is also Natural Beauty and Seductive Beauty palettes in the same series to choose from.

Some of my favourite things about it are:
- Compact, easy to carry around
- Generous-sized mirror included
- The bronzer is just right (not orange)
- Easy application
- Numbered steps for when you don’t want to think about it
- Gorgeous highlighter and the perfect coral pop blush
This palette is described as the “5 minute face on the go” and could not be more correct. Easily folding into a compact square this palette can be slipped easily into a purse or clutch. It includes a mirror is you do not have access to one.
I gravitate to warm brown hues and the bronzer adds the perfect amount of colour without looking orange. I really love the easy application — the numbered steps simplifies it is well. There are three steps for your eyes, then two for your face and last but not least two for your cheeks. I loved applying the highlighter as it offers a really non-greasy looking champagne subtle sheen to your face. This I applied to the bridge of my nose and on my cheekbones, extending in inward c-shapes connecting to my brow bones. The coral blush is the cherry on top!
I used my Make Up For Ever Aqua XL eye liner and FUSION mascara to complete the look.
I don’t know about you, but having a simple beauty routine is a big deal for me and I never like to spend more than a few minutes on my face. I must confess it sometimes is a bit of an afterthought with my busy life. It is so great to have a product like this that caters to our on-the-go schedules!
