Foundations can make your face feel caked and some days you need to let your skin breath. Unfortunately we don't all have perfect skin and most of us feel uncomfortable without makeup, so a great solution to this would be to wear a light coverage foundation such as a tinted moisturiser or a BB cream. Tinted moisturisers and BB creams will even out your skin-tone and give your face a fresh healthy glow without feeling heavy or cakey, allowing your skin to breath. The only down side to a light coverage foundation is that it isn't going to hide under-eye circles or cover-up acne but it will help tone down the redness of the blemishes. Below are two great buys when it comes to light coverage foundations.
