Foundation Best For Summer

Charlotte Tilbury’s Light Wonder Foundation is going to be one of your best friends this summer! This multi-tasking product has ingredients to smooth, hydrate, illuminate, minimize pores and reduce wrinkles. This foundation works for dry skin, oily skin and combination skin.

The lightweight formula moisturizes your skin and evens out imperfections, giving you just the right amount of coverage to keep you glowing all day long.

How Do You Apply Makeup in Hot Humid Weather

It’s important to note how you should be applying your makeup in hot humid weather. Lightly massage the foundation in circular motions, smoothing along the cheekbones in an ‘angel wing’ motion. Apply upwards and outwards across the face.

After applying the foundation, let it soak in for a few minutes before putting on the powder and bronzer. Once dry sweep the Airbrush Flawless Finish and the Filmstar Bronze & Glow on your face to really achieve that golden goddess vibe. The matte powder will ensure your makeup lasts longer.

Summer Makeup Tips

Be safe! It’s important to protect your skin with SPF but you can still get a natural looking sun-kissed tan without baking your face in the sun. Dust Charlotte’s shimmering bronzer palette to accentuate the high points of your face, including your cheek bones, bridge of your nose, and your temples to really make your skin pop and shine.

The best summer makeup tip is to apply powder to the face. Using Charlotte’s Powder & Sculpt Brush, apply the Airbrush Flawless Finish powder around the nose, T-zone and any other oily areas that need to be mattified. This works for all skin types including oily skin, you are guaranteed to fight that excessive shine but sparkle with a natural makeup look.

Get glossy! It’s the perfect time to take advantage of shimmering, polished lips. The Collagen Lip Bath lip gloss contains coconut oil which will nourish and soften your lips for a kissable summer makeup finish.
