Surviving Summer, Makeup Files Style

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, summer is just about on us.  What does that mean for us?  Fun in the sun!  Heat!  Sweat!  (Wait, I shouldn’t be excited about that last one.)

Proper makeup and beauty is actually different in the summer compared to the other months.  If you want to do this right, then follow the steps below.

  • Use suncreen! Be sure to slather on that suntan lotion as best you can.  If you don’t, you can get sunburned and raise your chance of skin cancer.  Nothing ruins your cuteness like cancer.  Remember to: Use at least SPF 30, Reapply Often, Put it on whenever you go outside, even if it’s foggy.
  • Keep those sunglasses on! Not only will you avoid any squint-related headaches, you’ll be protecting your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun.
  • Less is more with face makeup! The more you layer on the heavy foundation and powder, the more you’re going to sweat.  It’ll also clog your pores up something fierce, causing acne.  You’ll feel (and look) a lot better if you get lighter face makeup, or avoid it completely.
