Beauty Tips To Pick The Right Foundation For Summers

1. Choose A Liquid Foundation Always

A liquid foundation is the easiest form of product to apply. It blends in seamlessly and gives a high coverage finish when applied.

2. Create Your Own Version

You can create a lightweight foundation blend at home by mixing together your favourite moisturizer and your favourite foundation. By doing this, you will also be getting your skincare benefits of your moisturiser while covering any spots that bother you.

Choosing your foundation shade for the summers is different

3. Covering Acne Is Easy

Summertime makes your skin more prone to acne, leaving behind scars and marks. Go for a more sheer foundation as an all-over solution. Wearing a lightweight foundation is suitable for the summers.

4. Choosing The Right Summer Shade

In the winter your skin is lighter, but days at the beach and rooftop lounging can cause your complexion to darken in summer. So, you'll want to invest in a deeper shade of foundation.

5. Check The Formula

The heavy coverage foundation that helped you through the winter might not agree with your skin once the sweat starts to roll down your face. Skip thick formulas during the summer.

6. Set Your Makeup

Once you've applied your summer foundation to your face, the right setting tools will help lock your look in place. Grab a finishing spray to choose from depending on your skin type.
