Forget the Foundation... Grab the Tinted Moisturizer!



With the first official day of Summer just around the corner, the sun is finally starting to make an appearance... finally! I love the natural look of sun kissed skin. It is that time of year when your heavy foundation gets thrown to the back of the make up drawer and tinted moisturizer takes its place in your make up routine. All you need is some sunscreen, mascara, and a tinted or clear lip-gloss and you are ready to go! To doll up for the evening, keep some eyeliner in your purse to put your look together.  The advantages of tinted moisturizer can outweigh the disadvantages depending on how much face make up you wear on a day to day basis. A good tinted moisturizer is lightweight and most give you some SPF to protect your skin. It provides two products in one and can come in various shades to match all skin tones. It is quick and great for your fresh summer look. Though it will most likely not cover blemishes like your regular foundation, it is still a great buy for your summer make up bag.

On another note, make sure that you are applying your sunscreen daily. Most women forget to cover their hands, neck and chest. Those places still see the sunshine! It is always a good idea to keep a small travel size bottle in your make up bag or purse to reapply in the afternoon. Take care of your skin and it will be good to you!
