How to achieve flawless skin on the go, with a foundation stick, when jet-setting across the globe
A foundation stick is a must-have for any global traveller or frequent flyer. Foundation sticks are compact, easy to use and most offer a full-coverage glow, plus cope with multiple weather changes.
And foundation sticks wont spill or leak so are fully portable.
Whether going on a weekend away locally to the Hunter Valley or a long-haul flight to Europe, the right foundation stick maintains a seamless complexion both on and off the flight, without messing with your liquid allowance at security – and they don’t weigh much either.
These are some of the foundation sticks Renae rates:
