FRESH FACED
Lightweight makeup for sticky summer weather
This summer forget thick foundations, caked on concealers and piles of powder. Lighten up with a skin-boosting base to beat the heat and humidity.
1. Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment ($45, dermalogica.ca) covers up pimples and blemishes while concentrated sulfur and zinc oxide tackle spot causing acne.
2. If your skin is on the sensitive side and you are still looking for coverage try Clinique Redness Solutions Makeup SPF 15 with probiotic technology ($30, clinique.ca). Ideal for skin susceptible to irritation, particularly those with Rosacea, the probiotic technology improves the barrier strength of the skin. The formula also contains caffeine to calm while mushroom extract soothes.
3. Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 ($30, clinique.ca) is a cool cream-gel that contains aloe barbadenisis leaf water to give your skin an immediate boost of moisture. Treated pigments and film formers create a natural finish that stays for up to 12 hours.
4. For a lightweight finish try M.A.C Magically Cool Liquid Powder ($35, maccosmetics.com). Wear alone or dust over foundation for pigments that defuse light to help soften the face. The hybrid of water and pigment can be applied with 5. M.A.C 187 Brush Duo Fibre Brush ($50.50, maccosmetics.com) to leave a refreshing feel of a mist.
