It’s only natural that a brand based on bees would harness the power of flowers.

In the summer months, we’re all trying to get away with rocking a little less makeup — especially foundation, in favor of lighter tinted moisturizers and sheer BB creams, so a brightening skin-care regimen is key. You just can’t take a foundation vacation if your skin isn’t in its best, most even-toned state.

To embark on your foundation vacation, get involved with the daisy — extract, that is. It’s the star player in Burt’s Bees’ new Brightening range, which includes a cleanser, even-tone moisturizer, dark spot corrector, tonic and eye treatment. Like its pop-culture namesakes Crazy Daisy Ed, it looks pretty and nonchalant, but it’s got real resolve: in this instance, to regulate skin’s melanin production. The products combine White Daisy Extract with multi-fruit complex for luminous, more even-toned soft skin. Wild white daisy blossoms are sustainably collected in the mountains of Macedonia.

In the time I’ve been testing it, I’ve noticed that my skin feels super smooth and clean when I use each piece of the line-up and discoloration is diminished. The unscented formulations don’t irritate my sensitive, acne-prone skin and the light hydration and subtle brightening yields a touch of luminosity that makes me feel a bit more polished on days when I can’t be bothered to wear skin makeup.
