Sun, sea, beach, outdoor parties are the plusses of the summer season. There are also disadvantages: stuffy city air, temperature plus 35 in the shade, leaked make-up … The latter is especially annoying. Of course, in hot weather it is better to do without decorative cosmetics. But what if you have a business meeting or a romantic date?
In summer, especially thoroughly cleanse your skin before and after applying makeup.
In hot weather, creams and make-up are especially hard to clog pores. As a result, inflammation may appear on the face. To prevent this from happening, it is important not only to choose suitable cosmetics with special trepidation, but also to pay attention to the skin before and after applying makeup. So, be sure to use cleansing tonics or lotions in the morning and evening. At the same time, pay attention to the composition of the products: mineral oils should not be present in their formula.
In summer, replace foundation with BB cream, CC cream, or fluid foundation.
In the summer, put away your moisturizer and foundation in the far drawer, replacing them with one product with a lighter texture – BB cream (this beauty product is already known not only in Asia), CC cream or foundation fluid with SPF factor. If you are the owner of oily skin, make-up artists advise you to first use a primer and only then one of the three beauty products listed above. This technique will help prevent the appearance of shine on your face. As for blush, choose only creamy textures, powdery ones can roll in the heat.
In summer makeup, focus on the eyes.
The main rule of summer makeup is simplicity and naturalness. Leave experiments with bright decorative cosmetics for cool weather … or at least until the evening. It is also better to limit yourself to one accent – on the eyes.In hot weather, use natural shades of eyeshadow: for example, beige and gold look especially advantageous in sunlight. As with choosing a blush, go for creamy textures only.
Pay special attention to mascara. In the heat, waterproof is the best possible: it does not flow during the day and, moreover, protects from ultraviolet radiation. It is important to remember that the texture of such mascara is heavier and thicker, so apply it in a maximum of two layers. Otherwise, the eyelashes will stick together. And if you apply it correctly, carefully painting over the root zone of the eyelashes, then the eyeliner will not be needed!
Use SPF gloss for lip makeup in summer.
Even if you limit yourself to one accent – on the eyes, still do not forget about lip makeup. Apply a sheer, beige or pale pink shine to them for volume. And in order for the color to last longer, after applying the gloss, blot your lips several times with a napkin. And, of course, do not forget about the dangers of ultraviolet radiation: choose products with an SPF factor.
Particular attention should be paid to manicure. The fact is that the color of the varnish in the sun can fade. To avoid this, use sunscreen polishes.
