It's summer and the hot sun and humidity can cause your makeup to run and smear, leaving you with a not-so-glamourous look. Here are some tips to keeping your makeup fresh.
Face
Skip foundation if you could and opt for a tinted moisturiser. But if you need more coverage, prep your skin first with a primer which will help keep foundation, concealer, blush and powder on longer. Choose liquid-based foundation rather than an oil-based one for a smoother look. Then set your foundation with loose powder.
Eye & Lip
When it comes to eye and lip makeup, keep it light. Try using matte powder eyeshadow or a cream-to-powder eyeshadow. Avoid cream eyeshadows, since they show creasing and smear easily. With summer's high humidity, you will need waterproof mascara and waterproof eyeliner to prevent smudges throughout the day. Go easy on the lips colours. Instead of using a thick lipstick, go for tinted lip balm with SPF. It gives your lips the right glow, and protects them from the sun too.
Remember, summer is a time to keep everything fresh and light, right from your attire to your makeup. So try out these tips and have fun this summer!
