In case you missed it, or you haven’t had a chance to place an order yet, I’m here to remind you that Amazon Prime Day ends Friday, June 26. (As your friendly neighborhood beauty editor, I’d hate for you to miss out on such stellar beauty deals.) I already curated my list of the can’t-miss Korean skincare products that are on sale, but I thought I’d share last-minute makeup deals, too. I’m already spending hours scrolling through the site and putting my Prime account to good use, so why not make your life a little easier while I’m at it? Keep scrolling to see 14 summer makeup products I recommend adding to your cart ASAP, from a golden-hour-esque illuminator to a juicy lip gloss and beyond. You can thank me later.
Saie’s Glowy Super Gel is an 3-in-1 illuminator, makeup primer, and glow serum. It gives the skin a lit-from-within glow, grips foundation and concealer, and is enriched with vitamin C and squalane oil for real skin benefits. Wear it on bare skin, under makeup, mix it into your favorite foundation, or apply it precisely on the high points of your face. Regardless, your summer makeup looks will be all the better for it. It’s basically golden hour, bottled.
The L’Oréal Paris Original Telescopic Mascara is so, so good. I recommend it if you want mile-long length and impeccable definition. The narrow wand grabs every last lash—even the tiny ones on the inner corners of my eyes.
Sofia Richie-Grainge, Billie Eilish, and Kim Kardashian all use this internet-viral lip stain. Apply it, let it dry, and peel it off to reveal the prettiest, most natural-looking stain that will last all day long, even after eating and drinking.
Summer Fridays Dream Lip Oil uses nine vegan oils to coat the lips in cushiony moisture. Meanwhile, sheer pigments veil the lips in color. There are so many stellar shades, but I’m betting on Pink Cloud for pretty, natural-looking lip combos this summer.
If you’re sick of cakey powders and you want a next-gen formula that soaks up excess shine without looking obvious, this is it. Laneige’s Neo Blurring Powder combines ultra-fine powders with Korean skincare ingredients like blue hyaluronic acid and mint extract for a smooth, airbrushed, semi-matte finish with no dry feel. It’s a must-have for looking flawless on hot, humid days.
Laura Mercier’s Translucent Loose Setting Powder is also on sale during Amazon Prime Day. It’s so iconic, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention it. The classic formula features ultra-finely milled powders that take down shine without looking flat or cakey. Expect a blurred, airbrushed finish that will last all day.
This iconic foundation was recently upgraded to be even more blendable and breathable. It has a new “full-of-life” matte finish and an impressive 36-hour wear.
Yep, Charlotte Tilbury’s iconic Pillow Talk lipstick is on sale right now. The nude-pink shade is still one of the most flattering colors in my makeup collection.
If a traditional matte lipstick isn’t your thing, I bet you’ll love Tarte’s TikTok-viral Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump. It smoothes, plumps, and hydrates with a glossy sheen for truly juicy-looking lips.
The Who What Wear beauty team is obsessed with this mascara. It has a do-it-all formula that volumizes, lenghtens, lifts, and defines like a dream. It’s literally a one-swipe solution to lackluster lashes, and I can’t recommend it enough.
Laura Mercier’s Caviar Stick Cream Eyeshadows are the key to effortless eye makeup. They couldn’t be easier to use. Simply swipe, blend them with your fingers, and go about your day. The color will stay put with minimal creasing or fading thanks to a hyaluronic acid-infused formula. And the shade range! Every color is chicer than the next.
This is one of my favorite summer makeup products. Not only is the squishy, jelly texture a sensorial delight, but the formula packs a bunch. It’s infused with vegan collagen and hydrating aloe. It’s provides sheer, buildable, and transfer-proof color on the lips and cheeks.
What can I say about Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz that hasn’t already been said? The ultra-fine-tipped brow pencil creates the tiniest strokes that are virtually indistinguishable from real brow hairs. It’s an obvious choice for Prime Day.
Most brow gels pill, flake, or don’t last on my thick arches, especially in hot, humid weather. This one is different. Per the name, it keeps my brows in place like actual glue. I’ve even worn this on beach days when I’m in and out of the water, and my brows don’t budge.
