We here at Glam Damn It have found a few great foundations that are perfect for summer use and won’t leave your skin feeling heavy or looking cakey.

Sunscreen is a must to block the harmful UV rays that we'll all face this summer. However, more often than not, we find that while the thick, white moisturizers protect our skin from sun damage, they can also wreak havoc on our pores.

Thanks to a few fantastic beauty brands we at Glam Damn It have found the solution! Below are some of our favorite top-rated sunscreens suitable for oily/acne prone skin and can even help to reduce the excess oils! Keep your skin clean and serene this summer.

It’s no secret that we all covet sun-kissed skin. Bronzed beauty is a goal we’re all working toward and one that’s not always easy to achieve. We’re either landlocked or way too busy to hit the coast, (not to mention we try to limit harmful UVs) so we’re forced to attempt a golden glow sans the rays. Sure, pile on the bronzer, slap on some self-tanner, even highlight your luscious locks—but careful, it’s all too easy to end up looking like a pumpkin. Here’s our go-to guide on bronzing tips and the best products of the season.
