Hot weather and make-up is quite literally not the best combo.
However, there are some things that are extremely important to make us look sane on these hot humid days.
Here is a compilation of five of our must-have products that will keep you on fleek during the scorching heat!

Sunscreen
This one is a no brainer. You should always keep sunscreen handy to prevent yourself from harmful sun exposure which can cause fine lines, wrinkles and blemishes. Our pick is La Roche Posay dry touch finish mattifying sunscreen. It’s not only SPF 50+ but is also a non sticky formula which sits beautifully under your makeup.
2. Tinted Moisturiser
Less is always more in the summers, therefore, steer clear of full coverage foundations( they will melt away, anyway). Instead, opt for a tinted moisturiser. It will not only give you an even complexion, but will also be more comfortable to wear. Our pick is the Laura Mercier Oil-free natural skin perfect or SPF 20. It will give you flawless coverage without being cakey.
Bonus tip: You can use a concealer to cover up any areas that require more coverage.
3. Lip and Cheek tint
Your summer look is definitely not complete without a pop of colour. Try a lip and cheek tint on your face, it will not only add a healthy flush of colour but will also hold up even when you are sweating profusely. Our pick is the Benetint by Benefit. It’s berry colour is perfect for any skin tone.
4. Setting powder
Your makeup bag can not be complete without this product in the summer time. A silky powder is essential to set your makeup in place and keep the sweat at bay. Our pick is the Coty airspun translucent powder. It is amazing at its job and wouldn’t break the bank.
5. Mascara
Ditch your eyeliner(ain’t got no time for that!) instead, go for a waterproof mascara that will keep your lashes fluttering all day. Our pick is the L’Oréal lash paradise water proof mascara. It is not only budget friendly but great at volumising too.
Try out these and let us know which item really made a difference to your summer makeup regime.
