Summer means a lot of things for baddies. It can mean the time to start a garden, go on a massive road trip, quit your job, escape to the forest, live your days off the land…(sorry, you caught us daydreaming for sec there). But for many of us, summer is the time to go clubbing or, as we like to call it, club rat season. Summer is the best time to get a little experimental with your style; even if going crazy at the clerb is not your thing, you can try wearing a wild new look around the house or, if you’re feeling daring, show it off at your fav spot. We’re dreaming of glitter, rhinestones, vibrant colors, and showstopping makeup looks galore. This brat season-slash-hot girl summer, get ready to slay with these iconic susty brands.
1. Half Magic
Woman-owned | Vegan | Cruelty-free | Recycling program
If you want to get your Euphoria look on this summer, look no further. Half Magic is founded by Donniella Davy, the creative mind behind Zendaya and Hunter Schaefer’s most eye-catching looks on Euphoria. This brand is known for popping out highly pigmented colors and tons of fun face accessories (hello, gemstones). Their in-depth closed-loop recycling program takes your empty products, so you can be a zero-waste baddie and look good doing it.
Woman-owned | Vegan | Cruelty-free
This small batch and family-owned makeup brand gives us color galore in almost every product. Whether you are looking for one final color to elevate your eyeliner wing or something to do a little cheekbone doodle, Glisten Cosmetics has you covered. We are talking face and body paint, falsies, build-your-own palettes, and more.
Natural & organic ingredients | Vegan | Cruelty-free | Paraben-free | Gluten-free
You may have seen these palettes in a previous article, but we stay obsessed with Johnny Concert. Their luminizing serums are the perfect addition to your look to keep your face (and body) looking glowy from the darty all the way until the party. Use our code “SUSTYBADDIE” for 10%!
4. Unicorn Snot
Vegan | Cruelty-free | Biodegradable
If there is one thing that summer requires, it’s body glitter. But surprise baddies, most glitters are micro-plastic-orama. No fear, Unicorn Snot is making 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and biodegradable glitter so you can slather up your face and bod for that Bella Swan x Edward Cullen look.
5. Lemonhead LA
Woman-owned | Handcrafted | Licensed Bio-Glitter™ partner | Compostable
Last, but certainly not least, is cult fav Lemonhead LA. They make tons of glitter sets and palettes, but this UV Glow Glitter pack is out of this world. We know you’re going to be under some blacklights this summer, so g(l)o(w) the extra mile with literal glow-in-the-dark sparkles.
