How to cover up a sunburn with makeup ☀️🥵

2025/5/16 Edited to

... Read moreCovering up sunburn can be a challenge, but with the right makeup techniques, you can minimize its appearance effectively. Sunburn causes your skin to be dry and sensitive, making hydration the first step essential in your routine. Use a product like Clinique's Moisture Surge to soothe and hydrate sunburnt skin. Next, applying a good primer is crucial; consider using a power grip primer to smooth the skin's texture, helping your makeup adhere better. A lightweight, buildable foundation tint works wonderfully as it doesn't feel heavy over red, inflamed skin. For areas needing extra coverage, opt for a hydrating and lightweight concealer that seamlessly blends. Finally, finish off with a setting powder like Laura Mercier's to lock in your makeup and keep it pristine all day. Remember, always choose products suited for sensitive skin to avoid further irritation!
