Thanks to K-beauty, a dewy complexion is now something that’s sought after everywhere. But in our climate, there’s dewy skin, and then there’s dewy skin – literal drops of dew (i.e. sweat) trickling down your face. Yeah, no thanks. Goes without saying, but that dewy makeup can be real problematic when it’s up against Singapore’s searing heat. This is why Shu Uemura is offering us a solution to our cake-heavy, elaborate makeup routines. Meet the Stage Performer Fresh Tint All-in-One Hydrating UV Cushion.
Yes, it’s a mouthful, but this cushion compact does exactly what it claims to do. Its formula contains a silicone-based blurring gel that conceals pores to create a finish that’s akin to second skin. And while it isn’t too heavy on the coverage, it’s lightly tinted with mineral pigment to go on sheer, once again mimicking bare, natural skin. The formula doesn’t just deliver a matte finish though, it strikes the perfect balance of oil and water to quench thirsty skin too, ideal for those who crave a little hydration. And if you need a quick touchup to rid yourself of that midday shine, its sebum-sopping, anti-bacterial puff will do just the trick.
Since we’ve already given you the lowdown on sun protection, you’ll be pleased that this non-sticky cushion formula will also arm your complexion with SPF38 PA+++ to shield it from harmful UVA and UVB rays. It comes in 3 shades – beige, deep beige, and sand – that’s tinged with a fresh citrus scent to wake your senses as you pat it on in dreary mornings. Not a bad way to start the day at all.
Stage Performer Fresh Tint All-in-One Hydrating UV Cushion, $68. $48 for refill, $20 for case and puff.
Available islandwide from 1 August 2017.
