Summer heat is considered the arch enemy of makeup, as it causes makeup to run on the face due to high temperatures, staining the eyes, cheeks, and lips, which can detract from a woman's beauty and ruin her look. To ensure makeup lasts during the summer heat, the beauty portal "haut.de" recommends using BB and CC creams, as they have a light texture, provide moisture to the skin, and include sun protection factors.
The German portal adds that pressed powder is a lifeline for oily skin, as it absorbs excess oil and sweat, giving the skin a matte appearance. For added durability, "haut.de" advises using a primer before applying makeup, as this silky product gives the skin an even look and helps set the makeup. Makeup can be refreshed by dusting a little translucent powder on it from time to time throughout the day.
The portal recommends using waterproof mascara, eyeliner, and kohl, as they resist sweat and skin oil in high temperatures. Before applying powdered eyeshadow, a base or a layer of primer should be applied to prevent color settling into the eyelid crease or smudging. Alternatively, waterproof cream eyeshadows can be used directly, providing the eyes with an attractive depth thanks to their shiny appearance while resisting sweat and skin oil.
Lips are not spared from the summer heat either, as lipstick can run due to high temperatures. To prevent this, "haut.de" recommends applying a layer of primer first, which gives the lips an even look and helps the lipstick color last longer against the heat. When using a lip liner, it is important to choose waterproof products. For additional endurance, a layer of translucent powder can also be applied to the lips, which helps the color last longer.
