Do You Wear Foundation During the Summer?

We're Asking: Do You Prefer Tinted Moisturizer or Foundation During the Summer?

July 17, 2011

With Summer's high temperatures and sticky, humidity-drenched days, wearing makeup can be more of a hassle than a necessity. When the weather heats up, do you stick to your normal foundation? Or do you lighten things up with a tinted moisturizer? And if you don't do either, what's your hot-weather skin fix instead?

I use mineral powder, as lightly as possible.

I've been loving the Revlon Colorstay Mineral Powder. It smoothes on and my face still looks like my face as opposed to the masky thing some foundations do.

tried switching to a tinted moisturizer, but i don't feel like it gives the same coverage as a foundation. plus, i feel like even the oil-free tinted moisturizer makes my face look shiny/oily after a few hours

I use Lancome Dual Finish powder foundation in the summer.

I just use concealer where I need it, and some light powder all over.

Mineral foundation as of late. I have super oily skin and I hate it when makeup is sliding down my face when I am running out and about.

I usually don't wear any makeup, all year long, only on special occasions. Then I wear Bobbi Brown foundation, but I would love to try the Bobbi Brown SPF tint this summer.

I switch over to Pur Minerals powder. If it is really hot outside, I find even tinted moisturizer to be too heavy.

I still use foundation, but I move to a lighter formula.

Dr. Perricone's No foundation Foundation mixed with Tarte amizonian clay illuminizer. It is so good, feels light as air, covers great, and gives me a lit from within glow! Best of all? My skin tone is actually improving from using this combo!

I wear BECCA Cosmetics' Luminous Skin Colour tinted moisturizer. Feels so much lighter on my oily skin, gives a nice medium coverage & it has an SPF in it. It gives your skin a nice glow too!
