Rising temperatures call for major beauty swaps—lightweight formulas for rich creamy ones, all-in-one hybrids to replace layering, and techniques to keep it all minimal.
A trend much loved by millennials, contouring is giving way to a new fad—non-touring—which is just the opposite of all that heavy layering and high-maintenance make-up, and it gives you the effect closest to a baby’s soft, healthy skin. Interested now, aren’t you?
It’s also called ‘spanx for the skin’ by fans of this trend, and here’s why: you’re wearing it, but no one can see that you are, and the result is a smooth, fresh, subtly-highlighted complexion.
Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Blake Lively are doing it, and so should you. How? By following these simple steps. Prime your face all over, massage in a tinted moisturiser to boost your glow then strobe all your natural high points—along the brow bone, above the cupid’s bow, cheek bones, down the centre of your nose—with an illuminating cream. It’s melt-proof, because you’ve primed your skin; your skin can breathe, because there’s no multiple layering; and your face is reflecting the sun’s light courtesy strobe cream—all elements complementing a beautiful sunny day.
