Skin Care Top Tips

Living in Spain and the UK has shown me how sun damage and the cold and wind of winters in the UK can age women beyond their years. One top tip to avoid premature ageing of the skin is to use a high factor (at least 30) sun cream every morning summer and winter, apply after showering and forget about it.
To make skin look even toned and more flawless, mix your sun cream with a little foundation and apply with fingers or a make-up brush.
This not only improves the appearance of your skin, and provides sun protection, but also makes your foundation last longer.

Sun Cream: I love - Delial factor 30 by Garnier.
Foundation: Estee Lauder Resilience Lift Extreme (this also has SPF 15).

If like me you find that beauty consultants always recommend foundation, which is far too dark for you - I think it must have something to do with the florescent lighting in stores. And, as soon as you apply it at home, it gives you the appearance of a clown, and no matter how much you try and blend it in, it refuses to improve the look of your skin. I suggest that, you try using a high factor sun cream, which is usually white in colour and creamy in texture, and mix it with your dark foundation – this will dilute the colour and make it easier to apply.
