The ultimate makeup guide for summer

Scorching heat and makeup don’t mix? SAYS WHO?

 When done right, your makeup can help you sparkle in the sun and own the weather! If you are not sure how to do so, we are here to help.

 Whether you’re hitting the beach, going to a summer party, or just enjoying the warm weather, we’ve got the ultimate makeup guide for you. Get ready to slay the summer season with these makeup tips and tricks.

Sunscreen is your best friend!

Before you start applying any makeup, make sure to prep your skin with a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Look for a lightweight, oil-free formula that won’t clog your pores. Apply it generously on your face, neck, and exposed areas of the body to keep your skin safe from sun damage and premature ageing.

Keep it Lightweight and Dewy

Summer is not the time for heavy makeup. Opt for lightweight, water-based foundations or tinted moisturisers that allow your skin to breathe and prevent cakiness. Look for formulas that provide a dewy finish so that your skin gets a natural and healthy glow.

 Avoid matte foundations that can make your skin look dull and flat in the hot weather. Set your base with a translucent powder to keep it in place and minimise shine.

Embrace the Power of Bronzer

Get that sun-kissed glow without the harmful effects of the sun by using a bronzer. Sweep a warm-toned bronzer lightly on your cheeks, forehead, and jawline to add warmth and definition to your face. It’s the perfect way to achieve a sun-kissed look without any sun damage.

Switch to Waterproof Makeup

Sweat and humidity are common during the Indian summer, so waterproof makeup is your best friend. Choose waterproof mascara, eyeliner, and eyeshadows to prevent smudging or running. You can also try a waterproof setting spray to lock in your makeup and make it last all day long, even in the heat.

Brighten Up Your Lips

Summer is the perfect time to experiment with fun and vibrant lip colours. Go for bright pinks, oranges, and corals to add a pop of colour to your overall look. There are lip stains or tinted lip balms that provide hydration and long-lasting colour without feeling heavy on the lips. Make sure you check them out.

 Also, don’t forget to apply lip balm with SPF to protect your lips from the harsh sun.

Play with Fun Eyeshadow Colours

Summer is all about being playful, so why not experiment with fun eyeshadow colours? Try using bright and vibrant eyeshadows like turquoise, coral, or peach to create a stunning summer eye makeup look. You can also go for shimmery or metallic eyeshadows to add a touch of glam to your eyes. Just remember to use an eyeshadow primer to make your eyeshadow last longer and prevent creasing.

Don’t Forget to Set Your Makeup

Setting your makeup is crucial during the summer to make it last longer. Use a lightweight, oil-absorbing setting powder to keep your makeup in place and prevent it from melting or sliding off your face. Focus on your T-zone, which tends to get oily during the hot weather. You can also use a setting spray to lock in your makeup and keep it fresh throughout the day.

Conclusion

It’s the time to shine! Go ahead and experiment with vibrant lip colours, fun eyeshadow shades, and glowing skin, and don’t forget to have fun with your makeup! Embrace the summer vibes and let your personality GLOW through your makeup choices.
