Prepare your skin- Before you apply your makeup, prep your skin with a primer. A makeup primer helps makeup stay in place and helps to absorb excess moisture during the day. Some of these products are infused with SPF for added protection from the sun's rays. Consider using a Lakme primer which is affordable yet receives rave reviews from all the ladies and beauty experts.
Use a moisturizer- You can keep your makeup looking fresh by replacing your regular foundation with a tinted moisturizer(a moisturizer that contains a bit of color). A heavy foundation will clog pores and weigh heavily on the skin, causing it to sweat. A tinted moisturizer will even out your skin tone and keep it hydrated, it is also lightweight and allows the skin to breathe. These cosmetics are also often infused with SPF. Tinted moisturizers from Lotus receive very positive reviews from consumers and are easily available at an affordable price in stores.
No Lipstick- Keep your makeup looking fresh and new by getting rid of the heavy lipsticks and replacing with a simple and light colored lip gloss. In hot summer months, a lip gloss with a low-shine will keep lips looking pretty and smooth without appearing 'made up'. Some of the options for long-lasting, non-sticky lip gloss include Revlon Super Lustrous and MAC Pro Longwear Lip Crème. Oh! And as a golden rule, always chose light colors for summers!
Water proof make up, eye make up- If you define your eyes with lashes that are bold and look fresh, no one will notice the sweat. Eye primers can also be used before applying eye makeup. You can also combine a long-lasting, waterproof eyeliner with a powder eyeshadow over it. The eyeliner acts like a primer and reinforces the longevity of the eyeshadow adding a velvety texture and enhancing the color at the same time. Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eye Liner 2.8 g lasts longer than a lot of liquid based eye liners available in stores.
Let your make up chill- If it's so hot that your products are melting due to heat exposure, pop them in the fridge or store them in an insulated box that has been chilled in the fridge or freezer overnight. Remember, extreme temperatures can shorten the life span of your products.
