Lightweight, protective and practical: here's what the ideal products for making your summer makeup base should look like

With the arrival of summer and warm weather, it is time to think about our beauty case as well. Each season has a different beauty routine and as the weeks go by, our skin also changes and has different needs. Here, then, in the warmer months make-up becomes lighter and lighter and the makeup base for summer consists of few, simple but high-performance products.

Let's start with a few tips for your makeup base for summer

In order to achieve a natural yet high-performing summer base, we must remember that during this period the skin sweats more and is constantly exposed to the sun and humidity. That is why it is important to choose makeup that is not too heavy, which affects the skin's perspiration or drips easily.

In short, the watchword for our summer will be lightness. Always choose products that do not weigh down your skin, leaving it free and fresh all day long. But always remember that "lightness does not mean superficiality," and this rule also applies when it comes to make-up and skin care. Always protect the epidermis, especially since in summer the heat and UV rays are much more aggressive.

That is why we suggest always applying a base cream and a cream with sun protection factor. Then we can go ahead and choose the products best suited for our needs. Let's look at them together...

Face primer

Considered the "secret ingredient" of many make-up artists, the face primer has become many people's ally for creating the perfect makeup base. It is a very useful product, to be applied before foundation (if you opt for a BB Cream the primer will not be necessary) to even out the skin and prepare it for makeup.

For your makeup base for summer, we recommend choosing a lightweight, silicone-free product. For oily and combination skin, Mesauda's Shine Free primer is ideal: a cool, gliding gel that gives skin a smooth, matte finish. The gel-to-powder texture transforms into an invisible, smoothing, supple veil once applied to the skin. Thanks to the water-based formula, it releases a pleasant feeling of freshness on the skin. The result is immediate: soft and silky skin, canceled and corrected shine.

If, on the other hand, you have normal or dry skin, try Oil Foil, the primer in an oil-non-oil texture, instantly penetrates the skin providing deep hydration, reducing fine lines and pores and giving a visibly younger, more rested appearance. It gives skin a natural glow without making it greasy or leaving a greasy feel.

Concealer moisturizer

The ideal Concealer makeup base for summer is a light, moisturizing product that does not weigh down the skin but (of course) should cover and correct all our imperfections.

Pro Light Concealer is the Concealer fluid with high moisturizing power. The texture has the characteristics of a mineral product with calibrated powderiness and covering, protective, elastic and filling film. Thanks to its smoothness, it adheres perfectly and corrects imperfections.

Lightweight foundation with SPF

The ideal foundation for the summer season should be super light and fresh. Its purpose will be yes to cover and correct the skin, but it should not be overly heavy.

The Skin by Mesauda is the fluid foundation with a luminous finish and ultra-light texture that allows for medium to high coverage thanks to the ability to modulate it to achieve the desired effect. Thanks to the formulation, with a high water content, it is particularly suitable for normal and dry (even mature) skin.

II plus of The Skin is also given by the presence of the sun protection factor - SPF 15. It protects the dermis from UV rays throughout the year and helps fight premature skin aging and the appearance of sunspots.

And of course don't forget to set the foundation with Powder . If you have combination or oily skin, the Powder best suited for you is Celestial Veil Invisible, which contains Silica, with sebum-absorbing properties. For normal or dry skin, however, we recommend Celestial Veil Translucent, which is delicately toned and contains Mica, with adherent and moisturizing properties.

BB Cream

The BB Cream combines the moisturizing properties of a cream with the aesthetic properties of a foundation and is the ideal solution for warmer days. The tinted cream will make your skin always moisturized and simultaneously even out, enhance and perfect your complexion, minimizing small imperfections. Of course, its coverage is less than that of foundation: for this reason, the product is suitable for those who do not have serious imperfections or discolorations to cover.

Mesauda's BB Beauty Balm is the all-in-one product for quick, complete make-up, ideal for those who preferlight, imperceptible coverage. In a single step it moisturizes and smoothes all skin types and gives uniformity to the complexion making skin soft and supple.

Blush stick

Ideal for creating a bonne mine effect and giving an extra touch to your tan, in summer blush is pink! For tanned skin, bright colors are ideal, especially in peach tones, while for all other types, we recommend a more subtle pink.

Cheek Kiss is the multipurpose blush stick. The soft, creamy "cream to powder" texture makes it ultra blendable and layered. Enriched with Jojoba oil and Candelilla wax, it gives the face a natural glow and healthy complexion for a "dewy and healthy" effect.

Super practical in its stick format, it is applied directly to the cheekbones and blended with the fingertips to modulate the intensity of the color.

Highlighter

We continue with another stick product, which is more functional for summer and especially easy to use even for a quick touch-up when you are away from home.

Glow stick is theHighlighter with shimmering finish. The formula is light, creamy and easy to blend. Thanks to Jojoba oil, it blends into the skin brightening the complexion naturally. The handy stick format allows you to define features easily but precisely.

Refreshing spray

Now that we have completed the makeup base for summer, we want to give you a little bonus: the refreshing spray, which will become your best ally for brightening make-up.

Mist N'Glow is the ultra-fine make-up refresher with extracts of chamomile, calendula and rosewater, ideal for refreshing and soothing even the most sensitive skin. When used throughout the day on a made-up face, its revitalizing action makes make-up look brighter, as if it was just made.
