Summer calls for color, shine and carefree moments! So let’s create the ultimate summer makeup that will withstand any adventure, defying high temperatures and humidity.

Follow 9 top secrets and learn how to keep your makeup unchanged and fresh, even in the most demanding conditions of the day.

1. Start with clean and moisturized skin

Correct skin preparation is the key to make-up lasting. Cleanse your face with a mild cleanser and apply a light, fast-absorbing, non-greasy moisturizer.

2. Use Primer

Primer is essential to create a smooth base and to extend the life of makeup. Choose a primer that controls oiliness and reduces shine.

3. Choose water resistant Foundation

Use a light, waterproof foundation that allows the skin to breathe. Avoid heavy formulas that can melt in the heat. Apply the foundation with a sponge or brush for an even result.

4. Set with Powder

The powder helps to “lock” the makeup and reduce shine. Use translucent powder for a natural finish and apply it especially to areas that tend to shine, such as the forehead, nose and chin.

5. Water Resistant Eye Products

For the eyes, choose waterproof mascara and eyeliner. These products will not stain or run due to sweat or moisture. Also use eye shadows in cream form, which offer longer lasting and heat resistance.

6. Avoid heavy lip products

Heavy lipsticks can melt and smudge easily. Prefer light, moisturizing lip balms or lip stains that offer color without being heavy. You can also use a lip liner to define the contour and prevent the color from bleeding.

7. Blush in creamy form

Cream blushes tend to last longer than powders, giving a natural and fresh effect. Choose shades that match your skin tone and apply with fingers or a sponge.

8. Fix with Setting Spray

Setting spray is the final step to lock in your makeup. Choose a spray that provides a matte finish and extends the life of your makeup.

9. Always carry oil absorbent wipes with you

Oil-absorbing wipes are ideal for removing excess oil and refreshing your makeup during the day. Use them on the areas that tend to shine without ruining the makeup.

Choose the colors and products that you like and that suit your style. Experiment and have fun with different looks. Don’t forget, beauty comes from within!
