Okay, so maybe we don’t share the same coast, and your city isn’t a beauty year round. That’s all unfortunate, you could add, because here at Flaunt the perks keep getting us perkier. Homemade ricotta berry pancakes? At Flaunt, we’ve got’em made! That’s right, this job could never be passé.

Alright, alright, I know what you’re after. A syrupy stack of pancakes doesn’t make us invincible. You’re right: we at Flaunt shouldn’t admit everything. But with summer a few dozen yawns away, we can’t resist exposing what keeps us up and dreamy for the hot months ahead. That is, the products that will be pampering us after seasons of hard work.

While summer is about recharging your body, it’s also about lightening up. These products are ideal traveling companions for our favourite low-maintenance, high-energy kind of girl. Toss them into a straw tote, or keep them close by for your afternoon hike. Nude’s Cleansing Facial Oil foams with water and hydrates the skin. An extra bonus? Its floral vanilla scent is a guaranteed relaxant. Before arriving anywhere, apply Benefit’s slim waterproof BADgal liner. To maintain your mystery, opt for the espresso shade and smudge around the lashline. When out and about, skyn ICELAND's Glacial Cleansing Cloths are an immediate go-to. With no-water-needed, these Icelandic foaming cloths will be a friendly everyday refreshment. Best of all, the coconut, cucumber and white willow bark extracts will leave your face aglow.

Trust, this summer no time will be wasted rifling through make-up drawers. Inspired by bullets, ELLIS FAAS eye and lip pens are must-have weapons for every summer clutch. Punch up your pout with ELLIS FAAS’s Milky Lips. The emollient oils will make any man scanning the beach, melt in your favour. Quick-to-dry, ELLIS FAAS’s Creamy Eyes lend a special blend of flower and coffee extracts to your lids. An ultimate pick me up! The velvety texture can be modeled during any hour. But try layering multiple colours of Creamy Eyes. This experiment is swoon worthy. Remember, at Flaunt, we wouldn’t want any sensuality rubbing off. So keep your skin conditioned with ELLIS FAAS Foundation…it goes a long way and (finally) it’s coverage that lasts.

Spritz on Caudalie or lather your skin with Sabon because rain or shine, you deserve to look and feel like a goddess. Since summer is about making yourself a priority, we’ve chosen products that cater to you. Caudalie skin care tightens pores so you radiate like a queen. No really. Inspired by the “elixir of youth”, Caudalie’s Eau de Beauté manages to be both a toner and a face serum. A steal! Aside from pepping your skin up, this Beauty Elixir also doubles as an after-shave for men. Suitable for you and any overnight guest. Straight from Mother Earth, Sabon’s creams are a powerful defense against sun damage, dehydration, and late-night to early-morning puffiness. Smooth Sabon’s Organic Day Cream for all over (macadamia) lusciousness. Moisturize with Sabon’s anti-aging Face Carrot lotion and cool your eyes off by dabbing on Sabon’s breakthrough formula blend—Asian White tea and avocado oil Eye Cream. Obvious choices to Flaunt this summer.
