Setting your foundation with a loose powder seems to be a natural built-in step for most people who wear make up everyday. After all, no one wants their complexion to look shiny even before you reach the office – and that’s a very real concern in Singapore’s hot and humid weather. But another concern with this weather is that it can cake up your foundation by mid-day, so how about finding the best foundation for hot and humid weather to help do away with this step altogether?  With these seven foundations, you can skip that loose powder or setting spray and shave time off your makeup routine while keeping a little extra change in your wallet for the other items on your wishlist. Plus, dewy is the new matte. Here, we opt for a more natural look.
