ALL ABOUT THE GLOW: 3 picks from Vita Liberata

Let’s talk about glowy skin.

To me, glowy skin is healthy, hydrated and radiant. A good glow makes it look like I just had a nice mini vacation, slept like a baby for ten hours and enjoyed a healthy yet delicious brunch in the morning. You know; happy, healthy skin.

And if that’s the kind of glow you’re after, Vita Liberata has just the products.

Glowy skin with Vita Liberata

Ever since trying Vita Liberata’s products, I’ve enjoyed a natural looking tan whenever I feel like it. Which is, most of the time. Why not, since it’s so easy and I love the glow it gives me? I like having a bit of summery color on my skin in winter (and obviously in summer I rock a total beach babe look).

The thing that makes Vita Liberata’s products so good, is the fact that they are formulated with hydrating, mostly natural ingredients. The products are also fragrance-free and vegan.

Vita Liberata  Clear Tanning Mist

My new self tan favorite is the clear self tanning mist. You can use it on your whole body, but I like to use it for my face, neck and décolleté. Sometimes when I’m feeling super lazy, that’s the only area I tan.

Since it’s a water-based spray, I love to mix it with my toner or serum. One spritz is enough for me to use a few times per week, but you can build up the color by using it daily or using more product.

I apply it on my face and neck with my hands or the tanning mitt. If you’re not quite used to self tanners, I would recommend spritzing the product to the mist first and then apply to the skin.

Just like the clear mousse, this product is clear and dries quickly to your skin, making it feel as if no product was ever applied there. However, the next morning, after a shower, my skin feels super soft and moisturized. The mist contains awesome ingredients such as aloe vera leaf juice, coffee seed extract and hyaluronic acid.

You’re probably starting to understand why I think Vita Liberata has the best self tanners.

Customize your foundation for a glowy finish

If you’ve been following my Instagram stories, you might have seen me customize my foundation. One of the best products to do that is Vita Liberata’s beauty blur. If you’re looking for more hydration, glow and a lighter consistency – you should try mixing beauty blur to your foundation.

Beauty blur is super versatile. It can be used as a primer, you can mix it with your foundation or use it as a subtle highlight. It’s also moisturizing, which is exactly what my skin needs in winter.

On no makeup days I like to wear it just on its own. It has some tint so it evens out the skin tone and gives a beautiful glow. But I really love it together with my foundations. I make it so that my foundation has either half or one third of beauty blur mixed with it. It depends of the foundation. If I have a matte foundation, I can mix half. If it’s more of a glowy foundation, one third is enough.

Using a glow product all over the face might sound crazy, but it actually looks quite natural. Having an overall glow to the face makes your skin radiant, like it’s glowing from within.

There are 3 shades available. There’s also the Sunless Glow version, which has self tan in it.

glowy skin with vita liberata luminosity highlighters

Vita Liberata blur luminosity highlighters – Rose & Gold

Once I have my tan on and my radiant base done, I like to finish off my look with a highlighter.

If you have any texture or skin issues, you probably know that highlighters can be tricky. But that’s where cream products come in. Vita Liberata’s luminosity highlighter comes in two pretty colors – rose and gold. I would safely recommend these highlighters to all skin types, because they apply smoothly on the skin and don’t enhance skin texture.

The cream highlighters are packed with moisturizing ingredients such as squalane and shea butter. They reflect light beautifully and the colors are pretty and nuanced. The cream comes out of the tube quite white, but once you start blending the gorgeous color unfolds.

I usually apply these on the cheekbones, bridge of my nose and cupid’s bow. They also work on the lids for a quick look and they look beautiful on the body as well. I have a feeling I will be using the gold highlighter on my body a lot in summer.

These are no longer available, I think.

All in all I’m so excited about these products and the glow they give me. Have you tried them yet?

The best liquid highlight – Bareminerals Barepro Glow Joy

best liquid highlight

Reviewing the best liquid highlight I’ve tried – Bareminerals BarePro Glow.

When highlight is done right, it makes you look fresh, glowy and youthful. I’m a huge fan of natural-looking highlights that just glide onto my skin and make my skin look just the right amount of wet. What I don’t like is glittery or chalky highlights. Those can actually just enhance your texture so if you have  skin issues, those are not the best options.

The best liquid highlight product

To me, the perfect highlighting product blends into my blush seamlessly. Bareminerals BarePro Glow does that job fantastically and that’s why it’s my favorite highlight at the moment. The liquid formula makes it very easy to blend just with your fingers.

Bareminerals BareGlow Joy Highlight

BareGlow highlighter is liquid with fine shimmer and some tint. It dries down on the skin, so that it doesn’t leave a sticky finish. That’s important, because an actual wet cheek is not that convenient (that would be the classic hair on my lip gloss situation). It’s still not one of those quickly drying products, so you have enough time to blend it into its place. This product also smooths the skin a bit, making the glow look even better.

Bareminerals BarePro Glow highlighter in the shade Joy. Simply beautiful!

My shade is Joy, which is a beautiful mix of peach and pink. The official description of the shade is: Warm pink peach with duochrome pearls.
The shade is very unique and simply gorgeous – I can’t get enough of it. It’s slightly warm and very flattering on neutral, yellow or olive undertones. There are also other shades available. I would imagine Whimsy and Free would look amazing on pink undertones, since those colors are cooler.

Liquid highlights are versatile. They can be worn as highlights or mixed in with your foundation or moisturizer for an all-over glow. Since my skin is combination, I enjoy a natural glow most of the time, so I haven’t really used this product all over the face. I love to use it as a highlighter and I also blend it into my blush.

If you’re looking for a highlighter that is easy to blend, smooths the skin, looks natural (yet super glowy)  – this might just be the one for you!
