Spring always lifts my mood and inspires me to clean, organize, and refresh different parts of my life. My favorite refresh is updating my makeup. I love swapping out old items for fresh spring hues and lighter formulas.
On my last Walmart run I grabbed a few new Burt’s Bees makeup pieces. I’ve long liked Burt’s Bees (I’ve shared other favorites before) because they focus on natural-origin, skin-nourishing ingredients. Their products are free of phthalates, parabens, petrolatum, and SLS, and they’re Leaping Bunny certified—no animal testing.
They’ve launched a new line I’m really into—the formulas are creamy and hydrating, and the shades are so pretty. I prefer a natural, less-is-more look, and these colors are perfect for enhancing your natural features. I’ve been playing with a few items and put together a quick five-minute natural look that’s ideal for spring: dewy, lightly highlighted, and great for everyday wear.
Burt’s Bees products I tried are packed with skin-loving ingredients to nourish and hydrate. My skin has changed over the years (hello, fine lines) and I tend toward dryness, so I was excited about the new Color Nurture cream eye shadow and cream blush. Creams work well on mature or dry skin because they blend smoothly, don’t cake, and don’t emphasize lines. They also have a pleasant, light, sweet scent.
Burt’s Bees Color Nurture Cream Blush
The cream blush in Guava Meringue (comes in two other shades) is fabulous. It’s easy to use, blendable, and buildable for a seamless pop of color. The cream sets nicely and feels very moisturizing. I like to tap it on the apples of my cheeks with my fingers, then blend in small upward circles. You can also buff it in with a domed brush.
Burt’s Bees Color Nurture Cream Eye Shadow
This nourishing cream eye shadow comes in three shimmery nude shades and applies easily with your fingertips. It’s great for all-over lid color and is buildable for more intensity. I’ve also used the Caramel Buttercream shade to highlight my cupid’s bow for a little extra definition.
Burt’s Bees Squeezy Tinted Balm
One of my favorites! The Squeezy Sweet Peach smells and tastes lovely, and the color gives a flattering glossy pop that suits many skin tones. It contains responsibly sourced beeswax and hydrating cocoa butter to keep lips nourished and shiny. I’ll definitely try the other colors and flavors.
Burt’s Bees All Aflutter Volumizing Mascara
This mascara is a good pick for sensitive eyes. The lightweight, gentle formula applies smoothly without clumping—even with two or three coats—and wears well throughout the day without much flaking.
You can find these new Burt’s Bees products at Walmart and on Walmart.com. They’re a great way to refresh your beauty routine for a natural, fresh-faced warm-weather look.
