Achieving the perfect look amid soaring temperatures can be challenging. Use lightweight gels, opt for hydrating primers, and choose long-wearing foundations, says a make-up expert on how to nail the make-up during the summer.
-Swap heavy oil-based skincare for lightweight gel or serum base moisturizers. These lightweight formulas provide the perfect prep for makeup application while keeping your skin fresh and hydrated all day long.
-Choose a matte finish or hydrating primers over illuminating ones to create a long-lasting base for your makeup. It will help in controlling oil and minimize shine, ensuring your makeup stays intact throughout the day.
-Opt for long-wearing foundations with a natural matte or velvet finish to combat the summer heat and help avoid looking creasy. Setting powder for a flawless, fresh finish that lasts all day.
-When it comes to blush, contour, and highlight, choose powder formulas for a full glam look. For a natural, no-makeup makeup look, try lip and cheek tints for a subtle flush of color. Peach brushes are great for a healthy summer glam.
-For a summer glow, embrace lip oils or glosses for a hydrated and shiny finish during the day.
-Ensure your eye makeup stays put all day by using a waterproof eye base and non-smudging waterproof kajal, and mascara.
-Fix plus stay over finishing spray for transfer-free makeup.
- n the sweltering heat of summer, embrace “less is more” by opting for a lightweight makeup routine that feels like you’re wearing nothing at all.
-Utilize multipurpose products. Lipstick on the lips and cheeks. Blush on the cheeks and eyes. Champagne or gold highlighter on eyes and cheeks for added sparkle.
-Store your makeup products, like lip liners or sheer lipstick, in the fridge for a few minutes before application. Helps in precise and smooth application.
