10 Easy Summer Makeup Ideas

Easy Summer Makeup Ideas

1. Use Summer Primer

2. Apply Dense Foundation

Pick a foundation that is waterproof and also has dense pigmentation. This helps to conceal blemishes without slathering on layers of foundation. The foundation should be creamy, not watery and has a long-lasting formula.

3. Make Sure it Blends Well

If you sweat a lot in some parts of your faces (‘T zone’ is the most common perpetrator), makeup in this part can look sparse while the rest of the face looks okay. So, it is essential that you blend your makeup well so that there is no visible line.

4. Apply Light Coat

Always use light makeup for summer because gravity will not be forgiving otherwise. As sweat loosens the makeup layers from your skin, they will tend to slide due to their own weight if you have used multiple layers of makeup. So apply a single, light coat. Silicone based formula are light and also withstands humidity well.

A pencil is easier to apply, but this summer, brave your fear of liquid liner because it will not smudge like pencil or kohl and keeps your eyes bold and penetrating all day long. Make sure your summer eye makeup has a waterproof formula too.

9. Color Gloss Your Lips

Your lips look chapped when you are dehydrated which is understandable in hot days of summer. So tint your lips with color gloss rather than lipstick. There are plenty of good chapsticks available, but select one with high wax content or otherwise it will be sticky and runny in the sun.
