xiaoys I am a fan of the heat and enjoy the summer weather however I’d prefer to live with less humidity. It’s difficult to look or feel your best when you feel 100+ temperatures outside. It might even be challenging for some people when it gets to be at least 80 degrees or less.
Beauty is able to take on a life of its own when trying to get through the scorching heat. My routine changes in the summer heat. I’m not just talking self-tanners or lighter summer shades. I am talking about products that help keep my sun-soaked skin hydrated, hair frizz free and all the other things that I can locate to stop my makeup from falling off.
These are the top ten products to get you through the heat of summer.
- Urban Decay Makeup Set-Up Spray for Nighttime The best way to set your makeup is no better way to secure your makeup with than with this fine, lightweight mist. By misting this essential over makeup in the final stage to leave you with a flawless, fresh makeup that doesn’t be sunk into fine lines or fade or melt for 16 hours +.
- Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-Frizz Treatment Spray-on treatments for my hair are my preferred hair frizz-buster. I have yet to find an item that performs like Dream Coat. I apply this light spray onto my hair that is damp and am “wowed” each time. It operates through heat-activated polymer technology which creates silky and smooth hair. It assists in creating an invisible layer that acts as water-resistant “raincoat.” It provides me with a gorgeous glossy finish that truly stays frizz-free, even through high temperatures and humid.
- IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream Oil-Free Matte that has SPF 40 I don’t know what it that I like about the CC Cream but it does go through the day with moderate to full coverage, and a natural matte look. Even through the hot summer months it keeps my face appearing even and fresh without fade or sagging throughout the day. I prefer matte formulations in the summer since it lasts better with no shining. But, of course, I do top it off with application spray above.
- the bareMinerals Minerals Original Veil Set-up Powder Pressed This brand-new version of the cult-favorite loose setting powder is great all year long, particularly during summer. It’s weightless and extends makeup wear, and it prevents makeup from wearing or flaking off in the heat. Even if it were to be sweating, the veil holds everything in perfect order.
- Moroccanoil Dry Body Oil I know you’re thinking that summer is coming and oil? Yes! This is a DRY body oil that is heavenly for skin that is sun-drenched and dehydrated. I like spraying several pumps of this oil for dry skin into my hands, then rub it all over my body. Then, not only am I getting scent of the Moroccanoil signature scent, but my skin is immediately soothed, smoothed and hydrated. It leaves skin hydrated all day long.
- the Smashbox Photo finish Hydrating Primer water – Creating the perfect canvas starts with a primer. In summer, I like to use as light a layer as I can, and then apply the least amount of. I like to apply this light and hydrating primer mist prior to applying any other product and it aids to set makeup in place to last throughout the day.
- L’Oreal Paris EverPure Fizz-Defy Shampoo & Conditioner– Even though I’m in love with Dream Coat and truly depend on it, I like to start in the shower with a frizz-fighting shampoo and conditioner. This combo gets the job done thanks to the addition of marula oil to the formula already a winner.
- Too Faced than Sex Waterproof Mascara – I don’t apply mascara that is waterproof everyday however, when the humidity increases, I definitely use it. Because Better Than Sex is one of my all-time favorites which is why I choose the waterproof mascara to get the job done. Curled, voluminous and waterproof lashes in one!
- ColorStay Satin Revlon Lipstick It’s the absolute last thing that I would like to see is my lipstick to fall off However, it is apparent that it is the first thing to melt during the heat and humidity. I prefer something that is long-lasting, not matte and gentle. This Satin Ink Liquid Lipstick checks all the boxes, and comes in twenty shades.
- Urban Decay Primer Potion The eyeshadow primer is the one I use as my primary eyeshadow primer throughout the year. It’s particularly impressive how great it is while traveling in the summer heat.
