Summer essential: Dr. Hauschka Toned Day Cream

Summer days for me mean a largely makeup free face, helped hugely by a good intake of water and fresh fruit, as well as a damn good skincare regime. That’s not to say that I don’t like to keep things polished – in a totally carefree way, bien sur! – and having a selection of great tinted moisturisers and primers on hand helps hugely.
Dr.Hauschka Toned Day Cream is one that I discovered towards the end of 2011, and it’s already a firm favourite. A tinted multipurpose moisturiser (love that), it provides skin with a dewy sun-kissed warm coloured complexion with the added benefit of moisturising care in one ridiculously easy application. Great even when humidity is high – hello, Auckland - it absorbs super quickly into skin to calm redness, balance irregularities and give you a natural healthy glow, while also smoothing out uneven complexions. It comes out a warm beige colour but becomes transparent when applied to the skin, warming and enhancing each individual skin tone.
A great choice for those who suffer from eczema, rosacea and acne, it visibly reduces redness and blotchiness while soothing irritation whilst keeping the skin’s moisture levels perfectly balanced, and as its Dr. Hauschka, there’s nothing in there that will harm you or the environment. Highly recommended for anyone looking to pare down their beauty routine this summer, or just to harness a little of their own gorgeous glow.
