Every woman knows that there is nothing worse than seeing the perfectly applied facial makeup melt in the middle of the day. Waterproof makeup products are great, but even they won't save you during the hot summer days. If you want to look good all day every hot day, these makeup hacks are for you.
1. Learn to apply a thin layer of mascara
Waterproof mascara has many drawbacks, so applying a few layers every day will slowly ruin your naturally beautiful lashes, not to mention that you will look like you going to party in the morning. Go for a minimalist look this summer, and learn how to apply a thin layer of mascara.
2. Skip the eyeliner Eyeliners are great for the cold weather, but when it comes to summer makeup, it's best to skip the eyeliner altogether. Nude eyeshadow and a thin coat of mascara will help you look fabulous all day long. If you don't want to skip the eyeliner, draw a thin line.
3. Invest in some nude lipsticks
If you've never put on nude lipsticks before, now is the right time to start. Invest in a high-quality nude lipstick that complements your skin tone and makes your lips stand out without extra color. Prefer no nude? Then don't choose too bright a color.
4. Go for a soft shade of eyeshadow
Try a slightly more feminine shade than a simple brown eyeshadow. Soft shades of eyeshadow will brighten up your everyday make-up and give your eyes and face a little extra shine.
5. Blush is a must
A thin layer of blush will immediately give a fresh touch to your summer make-up. Powder and gel blusher are perfect for oily skin, while cream blush is good for dry skin. While powder blush is a better option for summer, waterproof cream blush can also be good. Just don't exaggerate too much.
6. No powder and foundation
Perhaps needless to say, the worst thing you can do is apply even a thin layer of foundation or powder. It doesn't matter what kind of skin problem you have, don't use foundation in the summer. BB cream is a better option, but let your skin breathe in hot weather.
7. Use sunscreen
Finally, don't forget to put sunscreen on, even if you use makeup products with SPF 15 or 30. It's important to protect your skin.
