Sun block is a must in the summer heat & anything with spf 30 blocks 97% of the UVB rays. 2. Kielhs ultra facial cream. No matter how oily you get, never skip your moisturizer. 3. MAC cosmetics Fix+ or Dickinson’s hydrating facial mist.”

Start off by using a toner to help get rid of excess oils and balance the pH in the skin. Use a water based moisturizer to hydrate with and an oil-free pore minimizing primer! This gives the skin a smooth finish and helps makeup stay put. Use an oil-free foundation and then cream based products on the face and set them with a matching powder. Instead of buffing in the powders in circular motion, stipple them onto the face to lock the products in place. Use LOADS of setting spray! Lastly, always carry a compact to dab on areas that appear shiny”. TULIP - MAY, 2020 35
