The Best Lightweight Concealers for Summer
Sheer coverage picks for that perfect no-makeup makeup look.
Now that summer has finally arrived, I’m swapping out my foundations and BB creams for illuminating moisturizers to achieve a dewy, no-makeup makeup look. But since I’m prone to redness and occasional blemishes, concealer is still necessary.
My pick for the warmer months: lightweight versions that offer sheer to light coverage without caking so my skin appears as natural as possible. By no means do these concealers do the work of their heavy-duty counterparts (really stubborn zits will require something with better coverage), but they look and feel as if I’m wearing no makeup at all. And really, if summer means wearing less layers of clothing, the same should go with makeup, right?

Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing Airbrush Concealer
($27, Sephora)
A concealer that leaves you looking airbrushed, yet still somehow makeup-free seems impossible, right? Wrong. This whipped version of Benefit’s iconic boi-ing concealer is ultra light and covers minor imperfections while still letting your skin shine through. It’s also great for layering overtop of heavier coverage concealers (you know, for those stubborn blemishes), for a more natural look.
