From a self-confessed foundation-aholic,\u00a0here are my fave summer foundations and why!<\/p>\n
Enjoy,<\/p>\n

1. Maybelline Fit Me<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> \u20ac8.29<\/p>\n Where Top Shop:<\/strong> Most pharmacies<\/p>\n This is one of my all time favourite foundations\u00a0and every time I begin to use it again, I remember\u00a0why I loved it from the start. It really is the perfect day time foundation in a jar. Not only does it offer a beautiful\u00a0dewy glow to the skin, the coverage is nice and buildable and it never looks cakey. Another\u00a0great thing about this foundation is the diverse shade choices. With a total of x8 tonnes to choose from – you’re are bound to find the one you love. I always use either 120 for my paler days and 125 for a more bronzed look.<\/p>\n 2. Loreal Paris True Match<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Price: <\/strong>\u20ac14.99<\/p>\n Where To Shop: <\/strong>Most pharmacies<\/p>\n Ok, another budget beauty. First of all this foundation comes in 23 shades! Yep 23, you heard that right. What I love the most about this formula is the lovely velvety feel it has on the skin and the coverage. Again buildable but never cakey and gives a nice glow to the skin as well. It wouldn’t be as dewy as Maybelline\u00a0Fit Me, but that’s a good thing as the lasting power for me when powdered is really good. Really easy to blend making application super easy and very affordable too, esp when boots have their\u00a0three for two offers on \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n 3. Illmasqua Skin Base<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> \u20ac40<\/p>\n Where To Shop:<\/strong> BeautyBay.Com\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Hands down my favourite foundation EVER!!! This foundation day or night creates a flawless complexion that lasts! Offering amazing coverage whilst being super blendable \u00a0– this is the best foundation I’ve\u00a0ever used and I go back to it time and time again! I’m actually going to use this foundation on my wedding day it’s that amazing. With 26 shades<\/a> to choose from, finding your perfect match has never been so easy and wait until you see how your skin looks after using this! I bought shade 6 and 12 and I mix accordingly.<\/p>\n 4. Estee Lauder Double Wear\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> \u20ac40<\/p>\n Where Top Shop:\u00a0<\/strong>Pharmacies and Department Stores<\/p>\n Ok so I wasn’t a major fan of this in recent months, but lately, I have used it very sparingly and I am loving it. With my skin, if I go in too heavy, it instantly looks cakey and feels sticky; you know that heavy makeup feeling on your skin, this foundation has previously\u00a0given me that. However, in the last few weeks, I have started to try it again, mainly while testing foundations for my wedding and when I apply it myself in small amounts, I actually really like the coverage and finish it gives. This foundation is mainly for those who love HIGH coverage and also for those with oily skin – but I have to say… \u00a0from someone who loves ‘less’ in the foundation stakes – a pea sized amount of this mixed with strobe cream is really lovely on the skin. Especially if you have constant dehydrated skin like me. Another\u00a0benefit is, this foundation won’t\u00a0BUDGE, so in the summer heat – you can be guaranteed\u00a0staying power! Shade choices? A whopping 36 to choose from.<\/p>\n 5. YSL Touche Eclat\u00a0Le Teint<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Price:<\/strong> \u20ac42<\/p>\n
