Summer is mostly fun. You get to go to the beach, the nights are warm and perfect for walks and parties, but there are some downsides to it, too. For most girls, one problem never goes away – how to have your makeup last longer even on those extremely hot days?

While there are some days when you can just avoid makeup, for example when you’re going to the beach, there are times when you’ll have to put at least something on your face. If you’re used to having makeup on for work, you probably don’t want to ditch that habit for a few months until the fall.

Here are a few tips for having your makeup last longer in the heat.

Proper Base

Start with your morning routine. Make sure your skin is hydrated and all the products you’re using are water-based, and your face won’t get shiny throughout the day.

Prime

Priming your skin is a step that shouldn’t be skipped. It’s not just another layer that will make your makeup slip faster. Instead, it makes the foundation last longer.

Carefully with Bronzer

Just because it’s summer, it doesn’t mean that you can overdo the bronzer. Everyone will able to tell that you didn’t get that tan naturally.

Less is More

This is the general rule you should follow with makeup during the summer. For everyday purposes, most of us will be good to go with a tinted cream and a concealer, some mascara and a bit of lipstick.
