The experts: The best foundation for summer
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Casting off the heavier coverage of winter make-up may feel a bit daunting before summer proper actually arrives, but as the sun begins to put in a more regular appearance, now is the time to wean oneself off the full-strength stuff.
Lancôme builds on the popularity of the skin-improving formula of its Visionnaire foundation by introducing a dual product to the range in which a tone-matched concealer comes as part of the package (£36, Teint Visionnaire, available nationwide).
The new Nearly Naked collection from Revlon is built around two products in a range of shades: a lightweight liquid foundation and a finely-milled, pressed powder compact (from £7.99, Nearly Naked, available nationwide), both of which contain hollow silica pigments to gently diffuse light without creating too dewy a look.
Velvet is one of the design signatures of Dolce & Gabbana's ready-to-wear collections, and now it's inspiration for the much-lauded beauty collection from the brand. Although these new matte finish foundations and concealers (from £25, Perfect Matte, harrods.com) provide coverage that is on the heavier end of the spectrum, the soft-to-touch finish makes them just right for right now.
