Follow these easy steps for a flawless summer look!
1. Start off with a good sunscreen!
We love La Roshe Posay Clear or Tinted Sunscreen. It’s grease-proof, sheer, and gives you great coverage – SPF 50 is all you need!
Start off with a good face wash, getting all the excess oil and dirt out of your pores. Dry off with a clean cotton towel. Then apply the summer necessity: SUNSCREEN.
Useful info: It protects us from the sun’s harmful UV rays and in the long run, helps minimize wrinkles and blemishes that may be a result of the rays.

2. Apply The Base! Step By Step
We love Estee Lauder’s The Illuminator. It gives a smooth texture & glow. Also, it’s light when applied on the skin, perfect for the summer heat- a tad pricey, but a little bit goes a looong way!

For the summers, I like keeping the base lighter and aim for a natural glow.
Method:
- Apply a primer to achieve a smooth, even texture. Keep it light, just a touch will do.
- After the primer is set, I recommend going easy with the foundation.
3. Foundation Glows
Personally, during summers I switch to full coverage BB or CC creams. They carry a light SPF as well which is great for sun protection – always! I like using the ELF Cosmetics BB Cream or the Estee Lauder Double Wear All Day Glow.
