Summer is my least favorite season of the whole year. The heat + humidity is a brutal combination especially for wearing makeup. But I still love to wear a full face most days though there are some particular complexion products that I have been reaching for that really hold up well in the summer months. These products are all long wearing, not too dewy, weightless on the skin and work well for my mature skin. Here are the 6 complexion must-haves I’ve been loving this summer:

My Summer Makeup Must-Haves For Mature Skin

Merit Beauty The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Stick

This is a complexion stick that you can use as a foundation or a concealer or just spot treat where you need it. I personally use it all over my face as a traditional foundation which means it will probably run out a bit sooner than my other stick foundations which is a downside but the formula is so great that I would be willing to repurchase it even with this issue. The Merit Minimalist Complexion Stick gives a creamy satin finish to the skin and is very easy to blend. It provides sheer to light coverage but it spreads nicely so you can cover a large portion of the face with just one swipe.

Ciele Tint & Protect Serum Foundation with SPF 50

While I do wear a sunscreen underneath my makeup, I love when my complexion products also have sun protection in them. This is a medium coverage skin tint that has a high level of SPF while still feeling like a traditional complexion product. It’s hydrating and feels like nothing on the skin but still gives amazing coverage for any imperfections.

Givenchy Prisme Libre Pressed Powder

This pressed powder has become a holy grail at this point. It’s blurring and mattifying while leaving a soft focus finish to the skin. I wear shade 2 which is perfect for my skin tone but it doesn’t add any extra brightness. Especially for mature skin, this is the type of powder that works best for our concerns. Not too drying, mattifying in a blurring way and long wearing.

ILIA Beauty Skin Blur Serum Concealer

This is a true blurring formula that gives medium coverage with a satin finish. It gives a filtered look to the skin which is perfect for those with texture or fine lines. Additionally, the ILIA Skin Blur Serum Concealer is extremely long wearing and doesn’t require any setting powder to last the entire day. It feels lightweight because of the serum-like texture but still covers everything I need it to.

Sarah Creal Face Flex Concealer & Complexion Enhancer

The Face Flex Concealer and Complexion Enhancer is designed to be a multi-purpose complexion product that moves with your face throughout the day without creasing or fading for up to 12 hours. I personally use it only as a concealer but it can easily be dabbed all over the face and blended out as a light foundation or complexion enhancer. This is creamy and smooth perfection!!! Some concealers claim to be creamy and hydrating but still dry down and make my under eye area look cakey. This does not at all. It’s super blendable but does set after a few minutes. It’s moisturizing and slightly blurring.

Danessa Myricks Liquid Blurring Balm Setting Spray

This is like a filter for your face. It blurs, gives a soft velvet finish and makes your makeup last ALL DAY LONG! And as someone who has never found use in a setting spray, this has become a non-negotiable for my everyday makeup. It is GORGEOUS!!
