SHEER? SENSATIONAL.

SHEER? SENSATIONAL.

With the brighter days of summer here, a sense of freedom is evoked by the sheer trend, inspiring care-free nostalgic innocence and a return to the simpler days spent outdoors bathed in sunshine. Our creative curator, Eleanora Morrison of Eleanora.co, shares the products that have sent her imagination on vacation this season.

AU NATUREL

Natura Bisse’s Diamond Cocoon Sheer Cream applies as smooth as silk–at first beige, and it then transforms to any skin tone.
