12PM MIDDAY SLIP-UP

If you’ve ever wondered why your make-up “slips” around noon, it’s because your skin produces almost twice as much sebum in the middle of the day than at any other time. Peaking blood pressure activates blood vessels close to the skin, stimulating the sebaceous glands. Rather than reach for your powder compact, a T-zone daub with blotting paper or, for those with oilier complexions, a light application of a mattifying moisturiser containing salicylic acid should prevent any unwanted shine.
