Honestly, I'm a sweaty person and when the weather really starts warms up, having foundation drip down my face isn't fun. Being bare-faced is always top choice, but for when I do feel like wearing makeup, I almost always reach for a lightweight choice, especially in summer. These are always great, because you have the option build up the amount of coverage you prefer, whether its more sheer on full on.

The past few years, I've also taken wearing sunscreen a lot more seriously for the overall health of my skin. I decided to go on a mission to find the best lightweight foundation that contains SPF at least over 30, turns out, it was a lot harder than I thought. Thankfully, I found a few that tick off everything on my wish list. If you're also looking for one, you've come to the right place. Ahead, I curated the five best choices to try. Keep reading to shop them all and find your match.
