1. Tinted Moisturizer
For light, barely detectable coverage, a tinted moisturizer will make your skin more even without covering it up.
Try: Nars Radiant tinted moisturizer, P2550, Rustan's Shangri-La Plaza Mall
2. Foundation
For extra coverage, go for hydrating formulas that won't cake when you're sunbathing.
Try: Make Up Forever Water blend face & body foundation, P2700, SM Mega Fashion Hall;
3. Blush
Opt for skin-adjusting products that provide a lived-in look as it sets.
Try: Perricone MD No blush blush, P1755, Rustan's Makati;
4. Brow gel
Cream and gel-based brow products are best for long-wear as they cling to the skin better while keeping your strands in place.
Try: Benefit Cosmetics Ka-Brow! Eyebrow cream-gel color, P1400, Sephora.ph;
5. Lipstick
If matte lipsticks are too dry for you and high-shine lipsticks are too glossy, go for a satin finish that won't budge all-day long.
Try: Coloupoup Ultra satin lip, P480, Calyxta.com;
6. Mascara
The worst thing that can happen at the beach is for your mascara to run when you get wet! Avoid the mishap by finding the right waterproof mascara.
Try: Too Faced Better than sex waterproof mascara, P1349, Sephora.ph;
7. Mist
You won't always be able to reapply sunscreen onto your face when you have makeup on, so try a face mist that will hydrate your skin and at the same time protect it from the sun's harmful rays.
Try: DrGL Sun Protection Mist, P2948, Sephora.ph
