Make up that is melt proof
With a few simple steps you can insure that going out in the summer sun is not going to ruin the time you spent putting on your make up.
One very important summer time makeup tip is to make sure your face is properly cared for. In the warmer weather we tend to sweat more. This leaves us vulnerable to clogged pores and break outs. By using a gentle cleanser before applying your make up you will ensure that you don't suffer any warm weather break outs.
A useful tip is to keep all of your eyeliner, foundation, lipstick and concealing cream in the refrigerator. You will love how cool it feels when you are applying it.
Before applying any sort of foundation you may want to try lightly brushing your entire face with a translucent face powder. By doing this you are helping your make up adhere to your face.
Go very easy on wearing eye make up in the warm weather, or you could end up with those horrible black lines running down our face. Waterproof mascara is a good choice.
Use the same powder you used on your face on your lips before applying the lipstick. This will also help keep your lips fixed all night.
Summer is a time for fun so go out and enjoy the warm days. By following a few easy make up tips you will be well on your way to worry free fun in the sun.
