Foundation - Cyprus - Wedding

What it says on the tin basically! Off to a wedding this month in Cyprus, which is still averaging 28/30 in terms of heat.

I know my Rimmel whatever it is in my drawer isn’t going to cut it.

Ideally I’d like something lightweight that will stay all day and is matte. I know anything heavy will cause it to melt off, and to avoid anything that says radiance or illuminating etc…

I don’t mind paying a premium price for it, I just want to feel happy and confident really. Prone to having oily skin.

Would love some recommendations please, thanks!

Dont use moisturiser only eyecream. Then use a primer and a mattifying spray for each layer you put on your face. Use a tinted moisturiser like a Nars one (foundation will look too heavy in sunshine). More mattifying setting spray. Then light powder round the nose or oily bits. Then carry blotting paper with you all day and a very light powder compact. Job done!

Fantastic, thank you!
