Beat the Heat with these Makeup tips

Beach,sand,sun and margaritas, HELLO SUMMER!!!

And while it’s melting hot-hot outside,your makeup doesn’t have to melt!

Read these tips on how to summer proof your makeup

ALWAYS APPLY SPF 20+

Protect your skin and apply sunblock.

Re-apply often especially if you are outside for long period of time or hanging out at the beach.

My personal favorite sunblock is from COOLA SUNCARE

It’s organic,non-greasy and it smells amazing plus it’s gentle enough to use on kids.

SKIP FOUNDATION

Let your skin breath!

And try BB cream for everyday wear.Most Beauty Balms are infused with vitamins,mixed with face moisturizer,SPF and touch of foundation.

If you have acne prone skin or scars and need more coverage,I suggest spot concealing your problem areas after applying BB cream.

USE WATERPROOF

Whether you are swimming,jogging or simply out and about,upgrade your mascara and eyeliners to a waterproof.

For a night out or a date night,apply few individual lashes to open up your eyes.

While there is a plenty of waterproof mascaras and eyeliners on the market my absolute favorites are

L’OREAL VOLUMINOUS (Hydro Black)

MARC JACOBS MATTE HIGHLINERS

SWAP OUT YOUR POWDER BLUSH

I am a huge fan of creamy textured face products especially when it comes to blushes.

Cream blushes last longer and create natural looking glow that we all crave.

DON’T FORGET TO HIGHLIGHT

No makeup look is ever complete without a highlighter.

Apply it on the highest points of your cheekbones and inner corners of the eyes

Personal fave

MATTE LIPS? NOT SO MUCH

Matte lipsticks are popular right now but I encourage you to try something more softer like a sheer gloss or lip creme for kissable lips.
