If you like a sheer, fawless finish in

a totally goof-proof formua, a BB

cream or tinted moisturiser could

be your way to great skin in minimal

time. The Laura Mercier Tinted

Moisturizer Natural Skin Perfector,

$75, is a stelar formua that is always

on the beauty ‘best of’ lists for a

reason – it simply looks amazing on

pretty much any skin. A lightweight

tinted moisturiser, it perfects and

corrects skin tone offering sheer,

luminous coverage. Also infused

with skin nourishing ingredients,

it instantly hydrates the skin and

works to lock in moisture. Another

long-time favourite of many a beauty

fan, Jane Iredale’s Glow Time Full

Coverage Mineral BB Cream, $79, is

a full coverage cream that combines

foundation, concealer, sunscreen

and moisturiser. Natural

minerals adjust to your

skin tone to help cover

blemishes, minimise

pores and smooth

and brighten skin,

while broad spectrum

SPF 25 UVA/UVB

protects the skin and

is water resistant for

up to 40 minutes.

One of the world’s greatest beauty ‘steals’ and

appauded by everyone from Julia Roberts

to Adele and Victoria Beckham, Weleda Skin

Food, $24.95, is always at the top of any

beauty freak’s ‘essentials’ list. Amazingly, the

product was first

formuated in 1926

and remains argely

unchanged today,

and with good reason.

Skin Food can be used

everywhere from the

tips of your hair to

the tips of your toes,

and is a must-have in

any makeup bag. It can

be used to keep lips

moisturised, to replenish

skin affected by air-

conditioned environments,

massaged around the nail

area and even to soothe

slow healing scars.

When you need to create an eye look quickly, definitely

don’t attempt a winged liner. Keep things easy by

applying a simple wash of colour using a soft formula

that blends with little effort. Clinique Chubby

Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes, $38, is a portable

and creamy shadow stick that delivers a wash

of sheer, buildable colour. The creamy formula

glides evenly across lids and stays put without

dusting onto cheeks or creasing throughout the

day, while the crayon-like barrel makes on-the-go

application simple. To apply, twist the base to expose

more shadow tint, sweep the shadow across the lid and

then twist back down before replacing the cap. TEXT
