I wera foundation in summer, It protects my skin from the sun.

I wear tinted moisturiser with sunscreen in the summer .

nappyaddict · 21/02/2008 18:47

also i can understand why people who have spots might wear a foundation even in the summer, but does anyone wear foundation in the summer who has okish skin?

I toggle between both, otherwise I would scare the horses.

I do, but it's very light.

i don't wear either, except for big occasions with photos.

DualCycloneCod · 21/02/2008 18:50

i wear tinted moisturiser with an SPF.

my skin feels heavy and clogged if i wear foundation.

My skin is good, no spots or blemishes but I have one cheek which has a slightly reddish tone to it, for some reason so, i wear foundation to even it out. Not heavy duty stuff and I don't trowel it on, it's not heavy, just enough. I've tried tinted moisturiser but found it a bit too oily and it didn't last but maybe i've just not found the right one. When I have a tan I just mix my foundation with a bit of moisturiser so i suppose i make my own.

Never worn either. I like my face to breath/I am very lazy

my skin is ok but my foundation makes it fabulous so unless i am quite tanned (rarely) or going to the beach I wear my foundation.

I do. I wish I could not wear it but my skin isn't good enough (it was that pesky third child that did it!).

Tinted moisturiser with spf on work days - but just moisturiser/sun screen at weekends because I'm lazy. I've got good skin (for my age) but tinted moisturiser just gives it a nice boost.
