As you may well know by now, when I’m not working, I much prefer make-up that doesn’t suffocate my skin. Which is why I’m so in love with The Ordinary’s Serum Foundation (£5.70 for 30ml, available at theordinary.com), which provides super lightweight coverage that glides seamlessly over pores and fine lines. Twenty-one different shades are categorised over three skin tones – fair, medium, dark – and the formula also contains an all-important SPF. With summer in full swing, grab a bottle of this super breathable foundation to create a gorgeous, natural-looking glow,it blends effortlessly while also staying put all day apply with a brush and off you go!

Oh wow how do you know which shade to go for? Also what was the concealer you used on your Instagram feed today? I didn’t catch the name. Thanks.
Hi Vicky, I love Hourglass and By Terry, the best bet is to go into Space NK, and they will help you choose the right shade for you. Hopefully you are close to one. If not Hourglass in Natural is a great shade, it a lighter more creamy concealer than the By Terry which will give more coverage, both work well together but it really depends on your skin tone. Have a look at my Lisa Loves on the By Terry concealer as there are colours shades for that product up there. Hope this helps.
