Next on the list was to get my summer foundation.. one of my fav things to do to let my skin know it's finally summer.
SUMMER SPRING//FALL WINTER
Call me crazy, but I am a firm believer in switching foundations with the seasons.
Why? I'll tell ya.
Living towards the east coast, we experience some serious seasons.
In the winter my skin may not see that beautiful sun for five months, meaning I have absolutely zero color to my skin and it gets that dull-ruddy look.. so not hot. So for winter I opt for the YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat foundation and it seriously is to die for. It provides amaze amounts of coverage which is really helpful for me since I wasn't one of those lucky people born with flawless skin. It is a thick foundation, which is why I keep it to the winter season.. I wouldn't want to walk around with my make-up falling down my face all summer.
Since the spring and fall are generally the same where I'm from, I use the same foundations. Armani Silk Foundation is great for every type of skin, seeing as it was recommended to me by my Grandma. It truly feels like silk on my skin, so much that I continuously ask my boyfriend to feel my face when I'm wearing it, all while providing perfect coverage and being much lighter than the YSL.
The foundation I just purchased for summer is the La Mer. It's the most pricey of the three but I don't think my skin could survive the summer without it. It is so extremely light I don't ever have to worry about sweating it off. The coverage isn't as intense as the YSL or Armani, but with some tinted moisturizer it does a hell of a job for the summer months.
Although this is a pricey system I have going on here, it is so worth it, and my skin thanks me every season!
