The heat & humidity are on! To combat the heat and sweat and yet look beautiful, certain changes in your daily beauty rituals are a must. In this thread, please post your "seasonal" tried and true face make up tricks and skin care routine that would help others survive the "run or streaked" make-up face which are the results of the hot summer months. Or, if you are in a cold climate, how do you keep your skin hydrated and fresh looking with make-up?

Do you switch from liquid to powder or minerals? Do you have a oily t-zone?

Mademoiselle - excellent advice from someone in the profession. thank you! since you are listed as being located where it is hot, hot, hot...what type of make up do you recommend for extreme heat?

I would recommend something that is either humidity resistant or oil-free. Although, it really depends on your skin type as to what would be the best product for you. Skin type: dry, flaky, oily, normal, combination T-zone? Also, depends on what type of coverage you like to wear, whether its just a makeup powder(2-in-1), or a foundation for better coverage. If you give me a heads up on those two things, I can then recommend a specific brand and product for you.

I use the 2 in one, but more powder than foundation, Studiofix by MAC. My skin is fair, not too dry not too oily.

during monsoon/rainy summer months:

  • Wash and cleanse the face thoroughly and rub an ice cube on your face for 5 to 10 minutes to lower the sweating rate so that the makeup stays put for longer period of time.
  • Women with oily skin can use astringent while women with dry to normal skin can use toner after the ice to cool and refresh the skin.
  • Avoid foundation and prepare the base of your makeup using powder slightly.
  • Sheer film of light brown, beige, pastel or pink cream eye shadow can be used along with a think line of eyeliner and use a coat or two of waterproof mascara.
  • Soft matte lipsticks are preferable to most ladies during monsoons but you may use a soft brown or pink shade with sheer gloss.
  • Do not neglect to use water-based moisturizers during rainy season to keep away the oily skin, acne and water loss due to perspiration and sweating.

When its summer time and ultra hot and humid but I need more coverage for some reason or another I do a mix of 50/50 of my moisturizer and my liquid foundation.  I find that the mix makes it like a tinted moisturizer but it covers and adds a little more than just power.I also like the spray foundation - I spray it on a sponge (make up one) and apply it that way.

I also CAN NOT live without my Dr's Natural Lipid Drops  it seriously hydrates my skin and makes it silky smooth (plus I dunno it also removes any fine wrinkles).  LOVE IT!

I don't use liquid makeup, I just make sure to use an oil absorbent cleanser and spf 15 at least moisturizer. Lip gloss, eyeliner and that's about it!!

I am pretty simple when it comes to make-up. I love the minerals and thats all I pretty much use. Some occasional eye make-up and of course lip gloss.
