The first day of Summer is officially here, which means the sun is scorching! And there's nothing more unattractive than a makeup meltdown in the midst of your day. But there's no need to fret beauties, we've compiled a list of tips, tricks, and tweaks to remain unflustered and flawless this entire high temperature season that is among us.
1. Prime! If you can only remember one thing, just note: it's a crime not to prime. Not only does it help to to smooth out fine lines, but primer provides a base for your makeup to adhere to which means way less slipping and sliding happening on your face.
2. Switch sticks - Toss your matte, rich color lipsticks in the bottom of your makeup bag, and opt for juicier lips. Make sure to try fruity colors that will add a feminine effect without looking as if you've tried too hard.
3. Glow- Now is the time to forget about coverage. Let's focus more on your skin appearing healthy! Bb creams, luminators, and bronzer are all perfect for summer. Depending on your skin type you may be a better fit with liquid or matte finishes, yet either way keeping it simple will fight against clogged pores and sweatouts.
4. Waterproof- When it comes to your liner and mascara waterproof is the most solid way to go. You won't have to fear someone asking "Are you ok?" because they think you've shed a few tears due to runny makeup. Invest!
5. Finish strong- A long lasting setting spray will get you through anything. In the hotter months you want to go with a matte finish to avoid adding extra dew on your face.
There are so many outdoor activities that take place this time of year, and whether you're hitting a theme park, cookout, or a yacht party, sometimes us a women don't want to sacrifice a glam beat to escape the heat. Keep it fun, simple, and light!
