Here’s the secret to rocking shimmery makeup without going overboard: “If you already have a shiny lip gloss or glitter in your eyeshadow, counter it with a matte foundation,” says James Boehmer, director of global artistry for Nars Cosmetics.

“You’ll look barefaced and, because the foundation doesn’t reflect light, it won’t draw attention to imperfections.” Try Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint Broad Spectrum SPF30 Sunscreen ($66, Tangs). It’s oil-free, feather-light and doesn’t look cakey or dull once applied.
