Beauty insider

This week’s model Marlene shares her beauty tips with us… How does your beauty routine change for summer? In summer, I wear less make-up because I feel it clogs up my pores in the hot weather. I use a lighter moisturiser, an organic sunscreen under my tinted moisturiser and most importantly, drink lots of water. What beauty essential would you not leave home without when you go on holiday? I cannot leave without my tinted moisturiser and sunscreen, and okay, also my waterproof mascara as I hardly have any eyelashes!

Beautywise, what’s on your wish list? My wish list is long, but the most important ones right now are an eyebrow kit, a hydrating facial and an eyelash tint.

What’s your favourite sunscreen? Coola Sport sunscreen and Invisible Zinc are my two favourites. Invisible Zinc comes in a tint for your face – it’s quite thick but has great coverage for any blemishes. What’s in your beach bag? My sunscreen, a face spritzer to freshen, hydrate and cool my face, and my tinted moisturiser to reapply after swimming. And I often take a bottle of fresh water to splash my face with after swimming to get all the salty water off, which can be very drying.

What’s your favourite way to do your make-up for a party? I like the smoky-eye look, light foundation and only gloss on my lips. I also love a sparkly bronzer on my shoulders and neckline to give them a summer glow.
