Protect!!!
First and foremost you need to protect the skin when the sun is out. The ?most anti-ageing aggessor is sun damage. My best recommends are both tinted and clear SPF’s, and CC creams which are colour corrector skin care:
Keep skin simple, let it breathe…
Good skin types no correction? Use mineral Dermalogica ?Super Sensitive Face Block SPF30 ?24.99
uses UV-blockers Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide provide invisible defense against the sun’s rays with calming properties.?Good under makeup, mixed with liquid bases and ontop of makeup.
Redness /acne/rosacea/sensitive skin types – use..
YSL CC cream ?30 provides the skin with hydration, protection, corrects uneven skin tone, light and lasts all day through to night and at the gym – no more red cheeks!?
Dry and sensitive skin types:
Dermalogica Redness Relief SPF 20 Ultra Calming(40ml)
A great 3 -in-1 SPF20, anti redness, defends against inflammation induced by skin sensitivity and rosacea and?moisturises.

Have fun creating your spring look! Remember to keep it simple with the skincare/correction/moisterising and SPF – just one product. Choose makeup that is more like skin texture so cream blush, and illuminating finishes on skin and lips, keep colours vibrant too to liven up that hot spring/summer look.
