During the winter months I pray for the day when summer will finally arrive! I absolutely love being out and about during the summer months, except with the burning heat I am forced to deal with a Makeup Meltdown! So here are a few tips that help keep me looking cool during these summer months.
SKIP THE FOUNDATION there is no need to walk around with an inch of foundation on your face. If you don't let your face breathe it can cause major breakouts during the summer months since your oil factories are working overtime. So instead reach for a tinted moisturizer or a BB cream. If you don't have either one and you don't feel like buying one make your own! You can take your current foundation and mix it with a little bit of moisturizer or aloe. In doing so, this will thin out your foundation but still give you a little extra coverage!
TRY A LIPSTAIN instead of your lipstick which can just "melt" off your lips in no time at all in hot weather. Check out Revlons Just Bitten Lipstain (about $7 at the drugstore), and just top it off with a little bit of chapstick since lip stains can be a bit drying.
SOAK UP THE SHINE and no I'm not talking about the sun rays... I'm talking about the shine that can pop up on your face after running around in the heat! Blotting papers can work wonders in helping absorb excess oils and keeping your face shine free! However the key word here is BLOT, try not to wipe your face which could cause your makeup to smear! :o
Hopefully you found some of these tips helpful! Let me know what your tricks are to avoiding a Makeup Meltdown!
Stay Beautiful,
