No Foundation Foundation with SPF 30!
Foundation and tinted moisturisers are the key to a polished makeup look especially if I am working on a model with perfect skin and I don’t want to ruin their skin with thick coverage. I know a lot of makeup newbies who are scared of looking too made-up and avoid foundation. Gone are the days of heavy, cakey makeup; now brands are focused on natural, effortless finishes that make your skin look its best and I try my best to have a range of types of foundation in my kit to suit all skin types and looks I am aiming to create.
As a dermatologist to some of the most famous faces in the world, their special needs often become inspiration for the creation of new products. When more than one celebrity make-up artist asked Dr. Perricone for a type of foundation that would let the skin’s natural radiance and beauty shine through, No Foundation Foundation was born from Perricone MD.
Created to keep skin looking dewy and flawless, this unique formula delivers many benefits of a traditional foundation without the heavy matte finish, which emphasizes the tiniest skin imperfections. No Foundation Foundation is a multi-purpose product that provides natural translucent coverage, corrects skin undertones, instantly smoothes fine lines and boosts skin’s natural moisture throughout the day, all the while delivering antioxidant benefits.
“I took special care in formulating No Foundation Foundation with a non-chemical SPF 30 to deliver protection against sun damage, making it ideal for all skin types, even the most sensitive” – Dr. Perricone
The Benefits of using Foundation No Foundation:
*SPF 30
*Lightweight and suitable for all skin types.
*healthy, dewy finish.
*Corrects skin undertones, smoothes fine lines and boosts skin’s natural moisture.
*Paraben-free.
Unfortunately it only comes in one shade. Women of a wide skintone range could pull this off, but I can imagine those on either end of the spectrum won’t be able to use this product.
It gives you a no foundation look yet protects the skin, has anti-aging benefits and gives a little tint to even out the skintone. Once you conceal and place translucent powder the skin looks glowing and dewy! I do only use this for clients who have amazing non pigmented skin as it doesn’t really cover imperfections such as redness and pimples. So I would then opt for a thicker foundation if the skin has imperfections. It’s perfect also if you are on holiday or just don’t like the foundation look.
It costs £47 which is very pricey, however comes out for my best make-up jobs and not all models I work on suits this foundation due to their skin types and skin tones so I am happy to only use this foundation on special occasions. Check out the full Perricone MD No Makeup Makeup range >here<

Summer Lip Colors I’m Loving Now!
—
The past 2 years, I was nuts about bright matte colors. This year, I’ve gone for slightly creamier alternatives mostly.
Here are 4 colors that I’m loving for Summer 2013!
—
1. Stila Color Balm Lipstick in Elle
Bright peachy-pink. It shows up whiter on camera but is actually almost neon in real life.
—
2. Stila Color Balm Lipstick in Betsey
I never quite fell out of love with neon blue-pinks. Here’s one that is not only creamy and cushy to wear, but also has lots of pigmentation!
—
3. Lime Crime Airborne Unicorn
This baby is still my favorite purple lipstick in the world. It’s not only a really bright purple (it’s a it more magenta and not quite as blue off-camera), it actually is quite flattering on many skin tones as well. Don’t knock it ‘til you try it!
—
4. Sephora Long Lasting Lipstick No 12
Rich, classy rosy color that’s not too blue and not too red. And it sets to an opaque satin finish that is neither too matte nor too creamy to last. This is one of those “indelible” lipsticks that resists kissing off with light activity (drinking and talking).
