- Application rules
Features of foundation with SPF 50
Light-eyed blondes - representatives of I-III phototypes - should first of all think about buying a foundation with the option of sun protection. If you still do not know which phototype you are, take our test, and after that choose cosmetics.
The main feature of tonal products with SPF is that the actual alignment of skin tone is a kind of bonus, an addition to sun protection, and often other functions:
the fight against imperfections;
prevention of pigmentation;
hydration.

Concealer with a solar filter, as a rule, has a lighter, more fluid texture. And as a care product, it does not require the application of a primer.
In a word, this is a tool for the summer, when a powerful sun protection factor is absolutely necessary. In addition, the usual foundation may be too dense for the hot season, when the skin sweats and shines more often.
To summarize, foundation with SPF 50 is needed in the following cases:
with increased photosensitivity (typical for fair-skinned people);
to protect against hyperpigmentation;
as functional cosmetics (protection from the sun and prevention of wrinkles caused by photoaging).

Sun filters
Foundation may contain both physical and chemical filters. Medical expert of the brand Biotherm Elena Alekseeva explains: “Physical filters do not penetrate the skin, but work on the surface, like tinting pigments. These include zinc oxide (Zinc Oxyde) and titanium dioxide (Titanium Dioxyde). In the list of chemical filters you will find avobenzone (avobenzone), oxybenzone (oxybenzone), octyl salicylate (octyl salicylate) and others.
Antioxidants
Humidifiers
Combining moisturizing ingredients with sunscreen makes perfect sense. Under the influence of UV rays, the skin loses moisture, which weakens the protective hydrolipidic mantle.

“Toning products with SPF are suitable for both the city and the sea. But I'm not sure that someone will want to do makeup before going to the beach, ”expert Elena Alekseeva notes.
Update
Experts have found that sun protection needs to be reapplied after an average of 2 hours. This means that it must be updated, regardless of the presence of tinting pigments, if you are outdoors. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Spring has come, the sun is close, the skin is in danger of peeling off. The active sun, which is about to show itself in all its glory, will soon force us to protect it from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

I couldn't refuse to test the foundation Le Teint Touche Eclat by Yves Saint Laurent - the world has been waiting for its release for 10 years! Created on the basis of the brand's main beauty bestseller, the famous highlighter concealer Touche Eclat, the new foundation was supposed to be the lightest, most delicate, but at the same time ideally masking imperfections. What could be better for summer? Looking forward to the test. A golden box, a classic bottle with a dispenser, a pleasant texture - at first glance, very liquid. Easy to apply and very natural effect. The face looks lively and fresh, with a “light wet glow” that is now fashionable. I confess, I am the owner combination skin, from any gloss has got used to get rid. Now I'm getting used to a new theory - in the summer, as makeup artists convince me, matting is not necessary so as not to overload the face. Well, I try not to use powder with the new product, keeping the natural, slightly wet effect, but I still remove the excess with matting napkins. And yes - best shade, in my opinion, delicate beige number 20 - it will suit literally everyone. I put 4 with a big plus.
In contrast to the previous test, I tried a fundamentally different product -.
Firstly, Shiseido- my favorite brand, and out of habit, I chose what is close and understandable to me - a classic foundation with high level SPF. The tool evens out the tone of the face, slightly mattifies - in a word, it does exactly what the product of this category should do well. Special mention deserves its "complete set" - an additional box with a sponge, which is designed to help evenly apply and distribute the cream. The cream is ideal for those who have healthy skin without irritation and peeling. If, like me, you don't flawless skin, then it will not lie very evenly on problem areas due to the dense texture. At the same time, two undoubted pluses bribed me - the product is very comfortable on the face, and even after a long stay in the sun, the makeup remains fresh. In general, my rating is a solid 4!

Corrective tone-fluid is not the first product of the brand La Roche Posay, which I try, but this experiment turned out to be no less interesting. My skin cannot be called smooth, so I prefer classic foundations to light fluids - they are more elastic and able to mask imperfections, you just need manual dexterity and the right sponge. But I got exactly the fluid - liquid Toleriane Teint, ideal for summer because you almost don’t feel it on the skin, as well as containing a high level of SPF filters. The tool turned out to be very comfortable and light, and it was not visible on the skin. However, visible defects under the cover of nude texture have almost disappeared. Tightness, dryness, the effect of a "mask" was not observed, although the product mattes very thoroughly. All the "fault" - thermal water in the formula, which is responsible for the missing moisture. I would highly recommend this product for those with sensitive skin. My rating is 5!
Despite promises, the circles of fatigue under my eyes could not be removed by any advanced cream. There is only one way out: mask them appropriate tone. The problem is that eye area very mobile, and therefore the “mask” of tonal means is immediately visible. I will not dissemble, saying that the foundation coped with the task by 100%. It was not possible to hide the blue under the eyes, but in general, the novelty proved to be excellent - the foundation cannot be seen in any light. It stays on pretty well and applies as quickly as a regular face cream. If the skin is in good condition and you only need a slight glow, you can apply with at least eyes closed without fear of overdoing it. 4 with a small minus.
Ambitiously naming new scale corrective means Teint Ideal (Perfect tone), Vichy Laboratories once again set the bar high in their quest to please sensitive skin and, I must admit, they did. Being a long-time fan of the brand, I am more and more convinced that Vichy does not promise "special effects" unfounded. From new series I undertook to test the corrective fluid for myself - it is more liquid, weightless and transparent than a cream (in summer you don’t want dense textures). I was satisfied: the skin tone evened out amazingly, and the liquid silk in the composition allowed the skin to breathe without clogging the pores. But this is not the main thing. The creators of the foundation for the first time promise therapeutic effect: skin quality should improve after 15 days daily use. Let's check: I continue the experiment!

It so happened historically that if funds are sent to the editorial office for a test La Prairie, they are automatically sent to the test to me - everyone knows my tender love to Swiss brand products, especially to the Skin Caviar line, which contains caviar extract and a cellular complex. I did not specifically read the press release in order to make my review as objectively as possible, while I did not even doubt that the foundation would suit me. Actually, it happened, but not immediately. I really like it when a concealer is attached to the product - I don’t like to buy separately, so as not to miss the color. At first, the concealer built into the lid seemed too light to me, but it turned out that it was thanks to this that it hides minor errors simply brilliantly. And I apply it with my fingers, without further ado with brushes and special devices. The very same remedy medium degree coatings are neither liquid nor dense. It lays down evenly, merges with the skin, hides the pores well and does not give my combination skin an oily sheen that is unnecessary. I chose the shade Sand Beige - natural and warm. In my opinion, exactly warm shades make the complexion healthier - dramatic pallor does not suit me at all. As for the assessment, I give the La Prarie foundation a five - I'm sure that, apart from not the most convenient bottle without a dispenser, the product simply has no flaws.
It was a real revelation for me in Lately all Korean brand products Erborian. Legend has it that the brand created its know-how thanks to a mix of Asian traditions and French classic beauty techniques. At the junction of fundamentally different approaches, a wonderful marketing legend was born, but even skeptics like me, who are not very fond of conceptual beauty stories, are forced to admit that Erborian cosmetics really work and even destroy stereotypes. So, rejecting the trend called BB creams, ironically now I can't live without Erborian BB cream with ginseng golden hue. Firstly, a multifunctional product cares for the skin no worse than the most powerful serum - magic fees Korean herbs do wonders for the skin. Secondly, thanks to the decorative effect, a feeling of a baby-skin face is created - the illusion of a face without make-up with even, fresh, beautiful and rested skin. This summer, I don’t paint with anything else - the feeling that my face is resting, and the image “a la naturel” suits me, indescribable! On the wave of adoration, she drew attention to an even more newfangled trend - CC-cream of the same brand, as well as a special BB-foam for washing. My rating: 5 with three pluses.

To be honest, in the summer I stop using foundation. There are two reasons. First - in summer, the skin of the face becomes lighter. Tan and small irregularities are easily masked with powder. The second is the eternal stereotype that in summer any foundation will feel like a mask on the face. My conviction began to dissipate as soon as I read the summary of the test sample: the product provides a flawless tone without a mask effect at the expense of the content minimum quantity powder particles, but at the same time it has high resistance due to the shell of amino acids of plant origin. The information about the innovative formula seemed very convincing to me: the moringa seed extract in the composition fights all the negative factors that suppress the radiance of the skin. In addition, the miracle ingredient powerfully protects against sunlight. So, the first thing I want to note is a bottle with a convenient dispenser that allows you to use the product economically. The texture is soft and light. The product is easily and evenly distributed over the surface of the skin. Some of the components are absorbed, the other creates a film, giving an even and radiant tone to the face. Perhaps this film is the only dubious moment in this story, but here's what is surprising: throughout the day, the product steadfastly kept on the face and did not create the slightest discomfort. I rarely change my beliefs, but this was the reason to include foundation in my summer beauty arsenal. With a little stretch, I put 5 points.

I will not be very original: in the summer I try to keep the amount of cosmetics to a minimum. But no matter how much I want to say goodbye to tonal products completely, I and my problem skin can’t afford it. I can definitely be called the most devoted fan of any cosmetics with the BB prefix, so with special trepidation I undertook to test the BB cream from the American brand Dr. Brandt Skincare suitable for all skin types. I would like to point out a high degree sun protection- SPF 30. Of course, a product with such a protection factor could only go to me - the editors are aware that my very fair skin the sun is contraindicated. As soon as I applied the cream, it seemed a little dark to me (this is my eternal problem!), But after I evenly distributed it all over my face, the product literally “dissolved” and became completely invisible. At the same time, the cream adequately coped with all my redness and uneven skin tone. My verdict: - a high-quality multifunctional product that masks skin imperfections well, does not clog pores and looks natural on the face. 5!
I've heard a lot about CC creams, an improved clone of popular BB creams. positive feedback, but the hands did not reach to try the means of this category. And here is luck! Among the many varieties foundation creams offered for editorial test, I was able to see a small tube of Glow with brightening CC cream from a well-loved brand Dr. Brandt Skincare. In terms of its consistency, the product seemed to me much less dense than the BB cream, which I wrote about earlier, which is undoubtedly a plus for the skin condition in hot summer. But the main advantage of the corrective CC cream, created on the basis of a complex of ruby crystals and vitamin C, is that it really gives the face a natural and healthy glow. The cream is quickly absorbed, does not create the effect of a “sticky” face and keeps perfectly throughout the day. I put 4 - the format seemed very innovative to me.

Foundation is the make-up product that I cannot refuse under any circumstances. Regardless of the weather, time of day or situation. Even if I'm shamelessly late for an important meeting, I'd rather not have breakfast, but I'll definitely apply foundation. Therefore, I was particularly enthusiastic about the editorial test of new products. So my samples are Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream and L "Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint.
With the onset of summer, the texture of foundation becomes lighter, and the composition is enriched with the obligatory SPF filter. The ideal embodiment of both the first and second qualities became for me. I heard a lot of positive reviews about this brand, but I have not used Smashbox products before. Manufacturers promise a wonderful result "five in one": moisturizing, protection, skin improvement, oil control and even wrinkle smoothing. Let's check! The product is applied easily, perfectly distributed over the skin, and merges with natural shade. It does not hide serious flaws, but it really evens out the overall tone, giving the face a fresh glow. The cream is absolutely not felt on the skin, does not clog pores, but at the same time reliably protects against negative impact sun rays. In general, I am satisfied with our acquaintance and will continue to use the brand's products with pleasure. Definitely 5 points.
I solemnly handed over the second sample to my mother, since the chosen shade of Naturel for me, snow white, turned out to be a bit dark. Main "chip" L "Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint- its lightest texture. This is not a cream or even a milk, but a liquid that, in some inexplicable way, is instantly absorbed upon contact with the skin, evening out the tone of the face and matting it. As a result, you get the coveted “after vacation” effect, when there seems to be no special makeup, but you look rested and tanned.
Owners of dry skin, please take into account: the cream emphasizes peeling. This is perhaps the only questionable point that I was able to identify. Otherwise, the product left an extremely positive impression, my mother especially appreciated the fact that even in the heat, the L "Oreal foundation reliably protects the face from oily sheen. The cream coped with the task for four.
Jane Iredale. The product turned out to have an unusual format: under the soft sponge there is a protection that must be carefully removed before application, but “neatness” is not my forte, so loose powder I tried it right from the desktop, dipping the sponge into the covered keyboard. If you do not take into account the format that is inconvenient for me, the powder deserves a solid five. The tool gently lays down, perfectly matting the face, without creating the effect of a "mask". The product does not contain any fragrances, which will additionally please lovers of eco-cosmetics. And one more thing: for the first time I found an alternative to foundation - this powder in the summer may well perform the function of "2 in 1".
The next day I tested the mattifying powder. I rarely buy beauty novelties, I always use my favorite proven products. But this powder has earned a place of honor in my makeup bag. Firstly, as is often the case with this brand, this is not just a mirror, but a chic large mirror, plus an additional compartment for the sponge. Despite the fact that the color was a tone darker than mine, the powder lay down very evenly and perfectly dealt with oily sheen. I'm going on vacation soon, so I can't wait for the effect of a sea tan to emphasize it with a new tool to the fullest! I fluctuate between 4+ and 5-.

Givenchy Matissime Velvet Foundation SPF 20 PA +++. A velvety matte finish with a subtle fragrance protects against all types of harmful rays. Perfect for combination skin, but for dry skin it is better to consider another option - for example, Givenchy Photo "Perfexion SPF 20 PA +++ tonal fluid.

HOW TO CHOOSE FOUNDATION FOR SUMMER
5 tips from Olga Ibrakova, dermatovenereologist at Tori Cosmetology Center.
1. First of all, be guided by the type of skin, as a rule, such marking is indicated on the package. If there are difficulties with this criterion, then you need to choose a tool based on its texture.
2. The denser the foundation, the more it clogs the ducts sebaceous glands. Be careful - this can lead to inflammation.
3. Do not use very persistent products (8 hours or more) constantly. They are good for special occasions - a social event or a photo shoot, for example. But every day such “make-up” is a blow to the skin.
4. In case of acne, it is better to replace the foundation cream with a lighter one - fluid with SPF or BB cream, which do not clog pores.
5. When finished, spray thermal water over the foundation: this will give the skin a beautiful dewy glow.
