Summer Proof Makeup

Summer: The glorious season when the kids are home from school and the heat is turned way up. This is the time of year to spend days in the pool, evenings by the grill and countless hours checking your makeup. The heat causes you to sweat, the pool water removes your makeup and you spend the entire summer wondering how to make sure you look good while having a good time. While there’s nothing we can do about the heat, we can offer you a little advice for the best beauty products for summer.

Eyes

You look fabulous in the mirror, but after spending five minutes putting the kids in their car seats and loading the diaper bag in the back of your SUV your eye shadow has already started melting off your sweaty face. L’Oreal Paris has the answer to your summer eye shadow woes. The new L’Oreal HIP Cream Shadow is sweat-resistant and lasts all day long; even on the muggiest of summer days.

Cheeks

While the sun will likely give you a lovely pink glow you won’t want to leave the house without your blush. Lancome Color Design Blush is designed to outlast sweat, pools and oceans to keep your cheeks looking fabulously flushed all day long.

Lush Lashes

There is nothing worse than realizing your mascara has packed up and moved from your lashes to the skin beneath your eyes. The worst part is that no one mentioned to you that you look more like a dirty raccoon than your usually fabulous self. Maybelline’s Define-A-Lash Waterproof Mascara will outlast your dip in the pool or ocean and won’t succumb to the biggest bully of the summer: sweat.

Face

Once your face is fixed and looking gorgeous there is no doubt you want it to stay that way the rest of the day. To keep your makeup where it’s supposed to be despite rain, shine, sun, sweat and sultry temperatures, Clarins’ Fix’ Make-Up Refreshing Mist Long Lasting Hold is the best choice. Simply spray it on your face when you finish with your makeup to keep it in place all day long.
