It is natural to have strong sunlight, sweat and humidity in the summer season. All these problems spoil not only our skin but also our makeup. Within a few hours of applying makeup, the entire makeup starts melting due to oil and sweat and due to this the face neither looks fresh nor attractive. Especially those people who do field work or whose work is outside, this problem bothers them even more. In such a situation, it is important that makeup is not only applied, but also set and protected properly so that it lasts for a long time.

It is a bit tough to make makeup last for a long time in summer, but by adopting right skincare, right products and some easy tips, you can keep your makeup fresh and beautiful throughout the day. So let us know what those tips are.

• Preparing the skin is the most important step before applying makeup. First of all, clean the face thoroughly and apply oil-free moisturizer. This will keep the skin hydrated and the makeup will set better.
• Primer is an important step. It is very important to apply primer in the beginning of makeup. It creates a layer between your skin and makeup, due to which the makeup lasts for a long time.
• Use light, oil-free foundation. Instead of heavy foundation in summer, use lightweight and oil-free foundation or BB cream. It gives a natural look to the skin and does not flow much even with sweat.
• Correct use of concealer: Concealer is a very important part of makeup. But apply concealer only where needed and blend it well. Applying too much product can cause makeup to crack quickly.
• Apply setting powder. It is very important to use translucent powder to set the makeup. Apply it especially on the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). This will also keep your makeup set.
• Choose waterproof makeup: Although we should always use waterproof makeup, it is most important in summer. Because if the makeup is not waterproof then your entire makeup can flow away. Use only waterproof products like kajal, mascara and eyeliner, so that they do not get smudged even when you sweat.
• Always apply setting spray after completing makeup. This will keep your makeup locked and fresh for a long time.
• Keep blotting paper with you: Whenever you are going out after wearing make-up, keep blotting paper with you. With this you can soak up the extra oil from the skin and your makeup will not get spoiled.
• Keep eyes and lips simple. Avoid using heavy makeup in summer. Use light and natural shades, which will make the look fresh and elegant. Especially do not use too much eye makeup and choose nude light shade for lips also.
• Do not touch the face again and again. Touching the face again and again is our biggest mistake. By doing this the makeup can get spoiled very quickly.
