What we're excited about | Style | May 2014

1. The new take on bronzers

Multi-tasking powders have now become the must-have item in every makeup bag. These three matte tones combined will leave your skin glowing, but each can also be used alone to contour and highlight. All in one beautiful compact.

Chanel Les Beiges Multi-Colour Powder, $64.

2. Fun timepieces

Collectible and cool, these playful watches with exposed clockworks are a real steal. That’s probably a good thing, because you’ll want more than one.

Swatch watches, $80–$95, Swatch.

Try one of these rosy hues on your cheeks for an instantly warm and dewy complexion. Dot on the apples of your cheeks and blend with your fingers for a summery-looking hit of colour.
