LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
No makeup? No problem. We have a happy skin fix for summer.
One symptom of summer is a fear of foundation. Putting makeup on your face before facing the sweltering heat each day is really risky, but we might have found a way to help.
This month, Shu Uemura launches their Brightening Cleansing Oil, said to enhance the skin’s natural radiance while helping to fade dark spots and promote a more even skin tone. Usually you wouldn’t think that oil and your face are a good combination, but Shu Uemura has proved with their cult skin oil series that it can actually work.
We recommend a dab of the oil, plus a quick swipe of translucent powder, and your favorite eyeliner for a good summer face.
And as for a facial oil that brightens instead of creating shine? Unheard of…until now.
