You’ve fake-tanned your face? Then skip your usual translucent powder, as this can have the effect of giving skin a dull or even grey and ashen appearance. Either upgrade to a darker shade of setting powder for the summer months, or else use a light bronzing powder instead. Just remember to bronze only in the areas that would colour in the sun (the forehead, the bridge of the nose, the cheekbones and the chin) for the most natural look.

I always think you can get away with a bit more oiliness when you’re tanned anyway! I call it “glowy” rather than “greasy”!
