A hint of a tint is all you need for sunny days

There’s an idea that when summer hits, no one wants to wear makeup. That’s not true. Most people want the no-makeup look, but don’t want to be totally barefaced. We only eschew makeup in the heat because navigating 30C with a full face of foundation is a nightmare. I recommend a skin tint. Consider it the perfect balance between a tinted moisturiser, a traditional bronzer – Vieve’s creamy bronzer is a dream skin tint – and a very light foundation. It’s a way of giving you that no-makeup look – but with a nice bit of makeup.
