Spring Clean Your Makeup Bag and 5 Must-Have Products for Spring

Hi beauties, smell that? Spring has finally sprung (YAY)! With spring here, we figured along with the spring clean we normally do in our lives, now is the perfect time to spring clean your makeup bag. With lockdowns slowly lifting, now is the time to declutter everything you have accumulated over the last year. We’re making it our job to introduce all the things you need to tackle this new season of life.

I’m a firm believer that starting your morning with a clear mind will lead to a more productive day. We all have those mornings where nothing is going smoothly and the fact that you can’t find that damn mascara is just the icing on the cake!

With that being said, it’s time to throw away that makeup bag you’ve had since 1992! I’m happy to introduce to you the best makeup bag out there!

This Makeup Case makes doing your makeup every morning a breeze and no longer leaves you wondering where the heck your favourite makeup brush has run off to this time. This simple yet creative bag allows you to see your products all at once, while also housing your brushes in compact brush holders. It truly makes the getting ready process that much more enjoyable.

Most of us have been in lockdown on and off for the last year, meaning we had nowhere to go and, really, no pressing reason to do our makeup (so sad). I encourage you to look at the makeup you have and look for a symbol that will look something like this:

This means from the time you opened the product, you have X amount of months before the product expires (usually 6-12 months). If you cannot find this symbol you can do something I like to call the ‘smell test” (glamorous, eh?). If your products smell “off” it’s time to throw them out!

Now, I don’t mean to point any fingers but we all know a certain someone who has a makeup brush that resembles something closer to a tumbleweed than a blush brush. If you find yourself thinking “ouch” while applying makeup, it’s time to treat yourself to a new set! We here at Fancy Face have just the set for you.

Our Blushing Gold Brush Collection is a 15 piece vegan, cruelty-free, non-shedding brush set that has you covered for all makeup looks. Not to mention that gorgeous iridescent bag that’s included! (Swoon.)

Are you inspired and ready to spring clean your makeup bag? Once your makeup bag is cleaned out you’ll probably be wondering, “what the heck do I buy now?” Well, I’m also here to tell you about my 5 must-have products for spring.

✨ I don’t know about you, but there’s something about a pink gloss that puts a little extra pep in my step. Allow me to introduce to you one of my favourites, Vacay Mode. This lippie adds the perfect amount of colour to your lips all while remaining juicy and glossy.

✨ Our cream blush, Blossom, is an absolute must for me during the spring (let’s be honest – all year round) and truly brings your face to life, creating the most gorgeous flush of pink to your cheeks. I mean – even the name screams spring!

✨ You know what else screams springs? Rosé (clink, cheers!), but also our Rosé, OK? blush. This powder blush truly embodies all things spring. With its true pink undertone and ability to wake up a face in seconds, it’s a product I live for moving into these warmer and sunnier days.

✨ Dew-U is another must-have cream product. It’s a flattering highlight for women of all ages and truly brings all skin types to life. Now that the long and dark days are behind us, there’s nothing like a healthy glow to make us feel as though we’ve made it through yet another winter.

✨ Last but certainly not least on my list of 5 must-have products for spring, meet Sassy. This lipstick is something I believe all women need in their makeup bag. She’s bright, fun and of course, she’s sassy. A statement lip is something I have always loved this time of year. As we move into more simple makeup trends, this is a super easy and fun way to elevate your look.
