Need makeup this summer that will stay put and can hold up in the heat/humidity? Check out some of my favorite products that can help.
Foundation: I love MAC's Face & Body foundation. It's waterproof and gives your skin either a dewy or satin finish depending on your choice of powder. Light coverage but build able and the shade I use is C3.
Concealer: MAC's Pro Long Wear concealer gives full coverage and hides acne scars, blemishes, and uneven skin. It's long wearing as the name suggests and once set with powder, never creases and stays put. You can also use this by itself as foundation. I use the shade NC 35.
Powder: Laura Mercier's setting powder provides skin with a shine-free finish and looks beautiful in photos. I've used this powder in the hottest summers of all time and it holds up even when I sweat like crazy. It comes in translucent and is universal for all skin tones.
Bronzer: If you read my last post then you know how crazy I am about Milani's bronzer in Glow. It gives skin a silky sun-kissed glow and is very easy to blend. Perfect to contour with or just to warm up the face.
Eye Primer/Shadow: Maybelline's Eye Studio Color Tatoo can be worn alone as a base or just as an eyeshadow. Very long wearing and come in several beautiful shades. I love using the shades Tough as Taupe and Barely Branded for a quick look.
Cheeks: Becca Beach Tint Souffle in Lychee/Opal is an amazing product. It's a sheer and luminous blush that can be used with your fingers or brush for a summer glow. Easily blend able and doesn't wear off throughout the day. Best of all, it doesn't look greasy and dries to a soft powder finish.
Lips: Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte lipstick is perfect for those of us who hate touching up our lipstick/gloss throughout the day. It's a long wearing and creamy formula for the lips. I use the shades Baby and Calypso which are perfect shades for summer or all year long.
Brows: Make Up For Ever Aqua Brow will keep your brows put no matter how much you sweat, work, or workout. This stuff is waterproof and keeps my tiny brow hairs in place. I use either #20 Light Brown or #30 Dark Brown depending on my mood.
Makeup Setting Spray: The infamous Urban Decay All Nighter makeup setting spray is a must to keep your makeup fresh and budge-proof. It truly does keep my makeup in place for hours.
