Summer Makeup: All the Anti-Heat and Anti-smudge Tips

With July the heat starts to get serious!

And how do we respond to scorching temperatures if we don't give you all the advice to always feel at the TOP even at this time of year?

Today it's time to do some make-up. Today we are here to tell you, shout and point out that even in summer it is possible to create a smooth and anti-heat daily makeup!

• The basics

It has been known for years that the basics are fundamental, and this not only for the makeup world.

Let's start from this, and to get off to a great start, make sure you have a good moisturizing day face cream, to be applied before foundation or BB cream or Bronzer or even a simple blush.

So rule of thumb: always apply a light layer of moisturizer.

In the summer, look for those products that have a high SPF and with anti-aging filtration.

• BYE BYE FOUNDATION

Speaking of foundations, there's also another little rule that you can occasionally dare to break: in summer it's better to avoid foundations, even more so those with heavy textures.

If you can't do without proprop, try to replace them with very light textures, with moisturizing and mattifying formulas. And now you will say "but opaque is not synonymous with dull". In reverse! These formulas are able to better distribute the color of the tan and therefore of the complexion.

A valid and essential ally of the foundation, in this case, is the blush. It is this that plays a key role in aesthetic makeup. Apply it carefully on the cheekbones and always prefer powder products to cream ones.

• N.B.: NEVER choose orange colors!

For those who don't want to give up the touch of foundation, but are always looking for a valid alternative not to be overlooked is the BB Cream. Put in words earth, earth a very light colored cream, which manages to minimize small imperfections such as pores or blackheads. It also won't dry out your skin, as they always have extra hydrating formulas.

It is also useful to use a light fixer that is able to fix the make-up throughout the day. If you don't have this product in your beauty case, even the classic colorless powder will be fine. The powder will also help you against the hateful, unsightly, unsightly shiny effect.

Also apply it abundantly on the T-zone and, only after a few seconds, remove the excess with a blush brush.

• EYE MAKEUP...WHAT A DILEMMA!

Well, perhaps after foundation, the eyes are the most critical part of summer makeup.

Black eyeliner + black mascara + black pencil = panda eyes

This is the risk you run when used to eyeliner and mascara.

Waterproof in this case is another key word and an essential obligation for those who, in fact, do not want to look like a cuddly little panda under 40°C.

Yet there is an alternative! The nude makeup. As for the face base, also in this case the opaque or matt effect saves the lives of girls. In fact, with colors that are too strong, you risk little hold, even worse if you use cream eyeshadows.

A good eye pencil is - try - to prefer to eyeliner. If blended and modulated with the help of a small brush, these too can give the right intensity to the gaze, defining it.

For a semi-invisible line, apply the tip of the pencil - rigorously sharpened - just above the lash line. You will get striking eyes without weighing them down.

Always apply a good eye primer and you will also avoid that the product concentrates in the creases of the eye.

• And the lips?

Natural is always an excellent choice, enriched by a simple veil of lip balm, even colored, why not?

Or... or even in this case, matt lipsticks will offer long-lasting wear, smudging close to 0 and uniform colors.

Among the colors that are the most popular are certainly nude, red and pink.

ATTENTION: if you don't want to risk going from a panda effect to

ALWAYS remember to enhance either the lips or the eyes. NEVER both!

• Last Advise:

Even and especially in the summer, never forget to carry out your skincare regularly.

Scrub, mask, tonic will give your skin breath, making it appear smooth and luminous.
