What foundation should I use in summer?

For some female friends, makeup is a must and it should be done all year round. As we all know, the skin conditions vary in different seasons, so different makeup products, especially liquid foundation, are needed. So, what kind of foundation should you use in summer? It is recommended that you choose a foundation with a light texture, oil-free matte effect and a certain sun protection value in summer!

1. Light liquid foundation

When choosing foundation in summer, you should choose products with light texture and oil-control effect, so as to avoid serious makeup smudges caused by oily skin. When choosing, you can apply a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand to feel how light the texture is. Products that are easy to spread are suitable for summer use.

2. Choose an oil-free matte foundation

Don't choose pearlescent powder foundation in summer, as the refraction of light will make your face look more oily. Choose an oil-free matte foundation to make the oiliness less obvious.

3. Choose a foundation with a certain sun protection value

Ultraviolet rays are strong in the summer, so when choosing a liquid foundation, you can choose one with a certain sun protection value. However, please note that liquid foundation cannot replace sunscreen, so you still need to use sunscreen after using liquid foundation.

4. Liquid foundation also needs to change with the seasons

You cannot choose liquid foundation products used in winter in the summer. Foundation products used in winter are generally thicker in texture. Such products will make the skin more oily and smudged in the summer. In the summer, you should choose a foundation that is one shade darker than that in winter. You can mix the liquid foundation yourself to make a foundation that suits your skin tone.

5. Choose foundation according to skin type

When people with oily skin choose liquid foundation, they should choose a foundation with oil-control effect. People with dry skin should not only choose a foundation with moisturizing function, but also do a good job of moisturizing skin care before applying liquid foundation.

6. How to choose liquid foundation

First of all, it is very important to choose the nature of the foundation. You must choose a water-based foundation, which is very thin when squeezed out and will not flow immediately if it stays on your fingers. This makes application effortless and easy to apply evenly.

Secondly, choosing color is very important, especially for girls with colored prints. Don’t choose a foundation that is too white. Choose a natural color, one that is yellowish. Otherwise, it will not cover the blemishes and the makeup will not look natural.

Then, choosing the formula is very important. You must choose an oil-free formula. Higher-end foundations basically have moisturizing functions as long as they contain an oil-free formula, so that the makeup will not come off for a long time and it will be convenient to touch up the makeup.
