With its built-in SPF 24, Cle de Peau's Refining Fluid Foundation gives Martha's skin an added layer of protection. She applies it with the same MAC brush she used with her tinted moisturizer. Surprisingly, Martha says she uses a foundation that's a bit darker than her skin tone. Perhaps she likes to look tan?

"I don't know what I'd do without this bronzer," Martha says of Bobbi Brown's Bronzing Powder in the shade Natural. "I like that it isn't too shimmery. I sweep it over my cheekbones, temples, décolleté, and along the bottom of my jawline to add dimension."
