1. Moisturize

This first step is essential to keep your skin looking fresh and hydrated and to prep it for makeup. Choose a formula that works for your skin type and has an SPF of 15 or more. The latest time saving products are BB creams which have multiple benefits.

Try it: L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream, $13, lorealparis.ca

2. Tint it

Try it: Naked Flushed Urban Decay, $35, Sephora
