As soon as summer hits its stride, Girlawhirl remembers one downside to the warm sunny days that she looked forward to all winter long. It's the makeup meltdown that inevitably happens after she steps out from the cool of an air-conditioned office into the steamy heat of the city to grab lunch or run an errand…
With her moisturizer, a sunscreen and a touch of foundation layered on top, it can get to be too much for the sizzle of summer, causing Girlawhirl to head straight to a mirror with powder, blotting papers or even a liquid mattifier in hand. But this summer she's ditched all of it, and relies on Clinique's new City Block Sheer Oil-Free Daily Face Protector SPF 25 to get her through the day.
It's sheer and lightweight, and now contains moisture wicking fibers that help repel perspiration. The sun block is physical, not chemical, so it never irritates Girlawhirl's skin, and the formulation also provides antioxidants as well as anti-irritants.
Girlawhirl uses it alone on the hottest days of the summer, but when she needs a little more coverage she can layer it under foundation because all the technology that protects her skin and keeps it comfortable in the heat also help keep any makeup she applies in place as well.
With City Block Sheer Oil-Free Daily Face Protector SPF 25, Girlawhirl has no more excuses. She can protect her face from not just the sun, but from environmental pollutants every day, and still avoid the dreaded summer time makeup meltdown.
