Makeup Ideas for a hot summer day!

Let's keep the makeup from melting!

Do not forget the primer, this will really help. Apply face primer after you have moisturized and before concealer and foundation. 

During hot summer days using a silicone-based foundation. This is recommended for those that want to wear a full face of foundation. These two foundations are silicone based:
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation
Cover Girl Tru Blend Liquid Foundation 

If you are going to use liquid foundation try using a latex sponge instead of a brush. I actually use a latex sponge everyday to apply my foundation because it gives me more coverage with less product. It also blends very nicely and your skin absorbs it better, giving a more natural look. But be careful which sponge you use because if use the wrong sponge they will just streak. 
I love and recommend these sponges: 
MUD Professional Make-up Sponge

Use liquid liner because it will last longer and will not smudge. My favorite is MAC's liquid liner.

Waterproof mascara will also help especially of you will be around a beach or pool. 

Set your makeup with a large powder brush and a translucent loose powder. This is a colorless powder instead of layering more color. 

Until next time, 
The Wicked
