The Ultimate Summer Makeup For Acne-Prone Skin

By Terry
UV Base Sunscreen Cream Broad Spectrum SPF50, $78.00 The Lightweight SPF
Regardless of your skin type, everyone should be wearing applying an SPF before your makeup. If you have acne scars, they are likely to deepen in colour as scarred skin is more susceptible to sun damage. This particular SPF is incredibly lightweight and dries down matte to help limit excessive shine.

Beauty Light Wand in Pillow Talk, $39.00 The Glow-Getting Highlighter
If you have oily skin you might think I’m mad adding this into the mix, but this product is the ultimate hybrid of both highlighter and blusher. It has a soft-focus and oil-absorbing properties, which are guaranteed to make you instantly glow. Add a tiny amount to the inner corners of your eyes and the tops of your cheek and brow bones.

Hourglass
Veil Soft Focus Setting Spray, $48.00 The Invisible Setting Spray
Instead of setting your makeup with a powder, which can often crease and end up looking quite cakey, try a setting spray instead. I love this particular formula as it feels weightless and is water-resistant, so it gives your makeup maximum staying power even in the summer heat. Simply spritz a light mist all over as the final step in your routine.
