In winter skin is more matte and less shiny, the idea is to use anything and everything to make it look flawless. Here are a few expert tips to keep your skin looking great.
Our expert tips
1. Clean skin is the secret to all great bases. A wonderful, yet gentle, cleanser is Esse Organic Skincare Cream Cleanser, R259 for 100ml, esse.co.za, which tones, and removes dirt and make-up all in one.
2. Between your moisturiser and your make-up base, try a skin primer – they miraculously help to fill pores. My favourites are Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch, R375, and the fabulous new Estee Lauder Matte Perfecting Primer, R355, esteelauder.co.za.
3. Touch out imperfections with concealer, cover anything else you need to with foundation and powder over the T-zone. Apply a delicate blusher along the cheekbones to give shape, but not so much that it’ll compete with your eyes or lips.
