Avoid oil-based foundations
These only just add to the excess sweat and oil. Rather, opt for cream or gel-based products, natural remedies for oily skin.
Be careful with mascara
Heat and steamy weather can make your mascara run, which is not only unattractive but can hurt your eyes too. If you have to wear it, ensure that you use waterproof mascara to avoid panda eyes. And don’t forget, no matter the weather you should replace your mascara frequently!
Don’t skip exfoliating
Exfoliation helps to unclog pores and get rid of oily secretions and excess dirt. Donβt skip this routine because it helps makeup go on smoothly. And it will make your natural radiance shine through!
Primer is the way to go
Primer helps a lot under your eye makeup, particularly in hot conditions when oil and sweat are at their peak production levels. Primers are an essential step that helps your makeup last, and they will even act as a protective barrier for your skin.
Try a tinted lip balm
Lip balms help keep your lips from drying out. And a good tinted lip balm saves you a couple of steps in your makeup process by doing double-duty. If you can get a tinted lip balm with SPF, you’ll also be protecting your lips from the sun!
Keep frizz away with an anti-humidity spray
What a lifesaver! Nobody wants their hair to look tired, lifeless, and listless in hot conditions. It can end up looking ungroomed and unattractive. Get products that will bust humidity. They will create an invisible barrier over the hair strands, protecting the hair from the hot elements, including UV rays, humidity, dirt, and pollution.
Use a setting spray
One thing that will help protect your skin and keep your makeup in place is a setting spray. It can help your concealer, foundation, and eyeshadow to stay on all day long without fading away. A setting spray is the top coat for your makeup, preventing it from smudging, slipping, and creasing.
Will you try these makeup tips as the temperatures heat up? Be-YOU-tiful no matter the weather! Whatever your makeup routine or preferences are, you will look and feel your best if you’re taking good care of your skin. Get plenty of sleep, drink lots of water, keep a nutritious diet, and wear sunscreen every day!
