How to Keep Your Summer Makeup Fresh
- 1). Skip the foundation, if possible, and opt for a tinted moisturizer. If foundation is necessary, limit application to the center of the face, steering clear of the hairline.
- 2). Consider switching to an oil-free formula during the summer months or dilute your everyday foundation with an oil-free moisturizer. This lighter coverage will fare better when temperatures heat up.
- 3). Dust any coverage with a little loose powder. Use blush sparingly, letting your sun-kissed cheeks grab the attention.
- 4). Blot any perspiration or oil buildup with non-powdered blotting papers. Or substitute a clean tissue, pressing gently into moist areas.
- 5). Remove under-eye foundation or powder buildup with a clean cotton swab. Resist the temptation to reapply unless you feel it absolutely necessary.
- 6). Reapply loose powder only. Pressed powder has the tendency to cake and clump when hit with moisture.
