Now that we're in the thick of the summer, there are more and more outdoor activities. After years of trying this or that product I've come with a list of great products that won't melt while your in the sun! I've also chosen products that are not only good for the heat but a little goes a long way so they should last you in to the winter months as well.
Let's start the canvas off with your foundation. I skip it!
Yes, there are great tinted moisturizers that work great in lieu of a heavy foundation. For instance my favorite is Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF20. Not only is it build-able coverage but it's got some sunblock. She's got two sizes of this great product, and it lasts and lasts. All you need is a 2-3 dots depending on your desired coverage. The coverage is great and you feel no product residue on your face. Really!
On low key weekends I put some of this on with a coat of mascara and I'm good to go.
Concealers up next!
If I'm going out, I like to add a little under eye concealer to cover any circles or baggage I might be carrying ;) Nars Creamy Concealer has an amazing creamy lightweight formula that just melts in to your skin. This product covers dark circles and red spots. A little tip I learned is to put some concealer along the bridge of your nose and above your lip to add a glow to your face. Don't forget to blend out!
Got a bigger blemish? A thicker, not budging, covers tattoo concealer- I'd have to go with Kat Von D's Lock-It Tattoo Concealer. The smallest amount of product is all you need and your good for the entire day.
Eyes, eyes, eyes!
I'd recommend going for a tinted base like Macs Paint Pots. These suckers have a lightweight feel and last all day. Shades range from skin tone to darker tones for a smokey eye. I like the shade Painterly, looks like my skin but a bit brighter. Next step, a nice gel eyeliner will stay in place without moving to the middle of your eyelid or all under your eye. I like Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Crayon, he's got the blackest of blacks among a bunch of other fun colors.
Mascara, any waterproof one will work. It all depends on your preferences, such as do you like more length, volume, curl. My choice is Maybelline Great Lash, Waterproof version with the curled brush. It gives me the look of full curled lashes.
Cheeks!
Nars Multiple - Done and done, this color stick is good for lips and cheeks. They have a matte version as well, so depending on your preference you can get the look you want. The range of colors are great too. Reds, pinks, peaches and darker shades for contouring and bronzing. I like the matte version in Anguilla, it's a salmon shade that is super flattering.
Lips
I'd go for a lip gloss or a light lipstick. If you've seen "Mia Week" on Facebook you know I'm a lip balm junkie. Same goes for lipstick, I love all lip products. So I'm going to narrow it down to the 2 I'm currently rocking. MAC has a sheen supreme version, it's has the moisture of a lipbalm with great colors. Clinique has the Moisturizing Lip Colour Chubby Stick, which again is like a lip balm. I tend to go for shades that are my lips but better shades. MAC's Impressive and Viva Glam 2 are great. And Clinique's Heaping Hazelnut is a lovely shade. If I'm going out big I'll go for a deeper shade, like a red or purple. Here's a dental tip for you - a blue based pink or blue based red shade helps your teeth look whiter.
I hope this helps you ladies with a melt free face this summer! Remember drink lots of water, use sunblock and moisturize! Prevention is better than a cure when it comes to blemishes and aging skin!
*All products except mascara can be found at Sephora. You can pick up the mascara at any drugstore*
