We are in the middle of July which means it’s hot outside (like boiling hot) so you need a foundation that will stay on and protect your skin from those UV rays. I am absolutely loving the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea foundation for the hot summer months. Not only does it last a long time, has SPF in it, but it also is a clean foundation without harmful chemicals!
I had been using a foundation for years from Clinique (it was very average). I really could not tell you why I used it for so long. I guess I just did not have the courage to try something new. I finally decided I needed to find a new one! If you have read my other posts, you know that I am trying to make my beauty shelf “clean.” In other words, I am trying to find products without fragrances, parabens, mineral oil, and other harmful chemicals. You can read about more clean beauty products I use here!
Why I love the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea foundation:
Besides the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea foundation being clean, I love that it has light-medium coverage, works with my sensitive skin, and has SPF 15 in it! It truly lasts all day for me and gives that smooth and flawless look (honestly looks amazing in pictures/won’t wash you out).

A couple more reasons why you should buy the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Foundation:
- water based so it feels weightless
- antioxidant protection
- pollution defense
- contains marine plants (reduce appearance of fine lines) and Vitamin E
How I use it
On top of finding the perfect foundation, I also wanted a new foundation brush. When I was ordering the foundation, I saw this paddle foundation brush and decided to order it! I am loving it so far! It really helps the foundation go on smooth. I simply put a couple drops of foundation on my face and then I take the brush and blend out the foundation making small circular motions. What I love about this brush is that it does not waste the product! If you want to put on your foundation fast (literally takes me 30 seconds to put on my foundation now) and flawlessly, you need this brush!
And there you have your perfect summer foundation!
This post is not sponsored in any way! Just giving you my honest opinion. I did a lot of research to find a foundation I wanted to switch to and I am glad I stumbled upon the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea foundation! I hope you try it and love it as much as I do!
