What do you for a make up base when on holiday?

Do you buy a darker foundation or tinted moisturiser or just not bother with make up at all?

I tend not to bother as my skin goes nice and glowy when it tans, and I worry that I would pick the wrong shade of darker base.

I have to change my foundation to a darker one during summer, so I do have a light one for winter and a darker one for summer. So I would bring both.

If I didn't already have two different colours, I'd bring my usual foundation and a bronzing powder that isn't too orange and without shimmer.

I have a lighter and a darker one, and I mix them in spring and autumn for an in between shade.

Tinted SPF moisturiser for day and some sheer powder for the evening.

Chantecaille 50 factor primer (instead of putting suncream on my face which brings me out in spots) and concealer under eyes and on patchy bits

Nothing. Just translucent powder to keep the shine at bay!

Clinique cc cream has been perfect for a hot fortnight in Florida, nice high SPF and a dewy touch of colour

I don't bother. If I catch a bit of sun my skin doesn't need any extra help. At night time I just wear a bit of lip colour and that's it.

I can't bear to wear anything on my skin other than moisturiser/sun screen in hot weather.
