Must-Know Trick: Foundation That Leaves Your Skin Looking Better Even *After* You Take It Off
Foundation with self-tanner = 💯.
You're busy—like, not a nanosecond to spare—so redoing your makeup between work, the gym, and whatever your nighttime plans may be has to be easy. The trick to making each swap seamless? A super-powered foundation. If you have a tan, glowing canvas, whatever you put on top will look that much better. Almay Healthy Glow Makeup + Gradual Self Tan blends to a super-smooth and natural (medium coverage) finish and leaves a sunny glow behind after you wash it off—so going makeup-free in yoga class is a no-brainer.
Starting with a beautiful base, makeup artist Andrew Sotomayor created a natural look for work and an intensified version for a night out. Watch the video to see his easy how-to's and you'll have plenty of inspiration for your jam-packed week ahead.
