How to look good and feel in the heat

All body care it cannot be divided into exclusively winter and only summer - at different times of the year and even on different days the skin (in such a conversation it is her condition that worries the most) requires a different approach. Isabel Carron, founder of the Absolution brand, believes that when choosing cosmetics, one should be guided by the current state of the skin. In other words, if usually the oily forehead suddenly began to peel off, you should pay attention to the means for dehydrated and sensitive skin, and not to stubbornly with the usual ones.
But some reference points can be designated. Nutritious and simply dense textures should be postponed - this applies to both cosmetics for the care, and decorative. And without that, a controversial desire to disguise everything faulty in the heat is not commendable at all - how the tonal tool melts, everyone knows firsthand. Yes, you can strengthen its resistance with bases and primers, but there is no need to substitute such a layer cake under the sun. The combination of point (concealer) and general, but light coating (loose or mineral powder) is the most advantageous, except, perhaps, BB-, CC-bases and tinted moisturizers, which are played by their versatility: the ability to moisturize, mask and protect from the sun.
For eye makeup, we advise you to choose waterproof - with the special structure of the century mascara can be imprinted on the skin, and the shadows and pencils - to become clogged and creased more than usual. There will be no problems with the search: many brands duplicate their successful products in a water-resistant version, and some, like MUFE, even produce such seasonal collections (the “waterproof” stamp on them cannot be ignored). It is believed that the best way to replace all the creamy textures in the summer with powdery, but we see no reason to ignore the ultra-light gel formulas like the one in Smashbox O-Glow blush and Maybelline Color Tattoo shadows. About the relevance of make-up on the beach briefly: do not see anything reprehensible to go to the pool, for example, with arrows (painted with something waterproof, of course) - why limit yourself in such trifles if the soul, as they say, demands.
Out of respect for others, do not use sweet and sultry aromas.
Great helpers will be matting wipes and fixing spray like MAC Fix + and MUFE Mist & Fix - as well as many things that are not clear at first glance, it is a well of interpretations. They can prepare the face or its individual zones before applying the tone, blush, and shadows — the colors that are watered on the skin irrigated with a fixer are more dense and more readable; breed tonal resources (we do not recommend doing this with BB, CC and tinted moisturizers if you rely on their built-in sanskrin); put down the powder when it is too noticeable - the list goes on.
If in make-up, due to the large number of possibilities, it is possible to stumble, while maintaining well-being is easier - almost all the necessary rules are jagged as a child: do not sunbathe at dangerous hours from 12 to 17, cover your head (Panama FTW), wear sanskrin and normal sunglasses (not just plastic, but with a UV filter), buy a ton of good patches and corn-proofing sticks like Compeed and scatter them in all your pockets and cosmetics bags (it’s good to have a first-aid kit on your desktop for such necessary everyday things). It is worth not drinking tea or coffee anymore, but water - the most saturated fabric mask will not save the skin, which just needs water; out of respect for others, do not use sweet and sultry aromas; moisturize the skin of the hands with sprays or thermal water - but the liquid must be wetted with napkins, not waiting until it evaporates. Sunburn on even skin appears evener, so scrubs and lotions should not be removed, as well as moisturizers for the face - from the winds, sun, alcohol and other pleasant and not very companions of summer, the skin is no less tired than from the cold. And about the subject of experiences of many girls and the rage of all supporters of a positive body image, beach body, we express one simple picture - this one.
