Summers are the best time to host the destination weddings. The sunny bright weather makes picture perfect stage set for the weddings. It is the time to flaunt the hot and lustrous pastels palette in terms of dressing and so on.
Summer is also about melting makeup, running foundation and eyeliner. This can be an awkward moment for a bride. If your wedding bells are ringing you can try some of the following tips to keep your makeup intact:
Waterproof makeup for eyes
Waterproof eye makeup does not at all means the waterproof mascara it is something beyond that. Contour your eyes initially with a waterproof eye base. Initial gel eye makeup base will help the whole eye makeup to stay for a longer duration. Use gel-based eyeliner along with waterproof mascara.
Stay away from moisturizer from the whole day
Do not give your skin an opportunity to produce extra sweat and ruin your makeup. As an alternative, go for the primer of oil-free composition before the application of makeup. These primers are lightweight and generate a flawless platform for the foundation.
Selection of timing
Sun is directly overhead during the later part of the day. This position of the sun cast a shadow underneath eyes. If you already have dark circles just avoid the kajal or the lower eyeliner. Too much contouring can leave your makeup in disaster.
Focus on your lip makeup as it says all
Summers are not the perfect time for smoky eyes. Make your lips be the centre point of makeup. Work on the lips more. Keep your makeup of the eye light and make your lips the statement. Try the classic look like “red statement lip”. You can also try a bright and fresh shade like orange or pink.
Beware of bronzers
Summers are excellent for bronze toned skin. The shimmering sun also adds a glossy effect to this makeup tone. The bright sunny rays will put a shimmering effect of the bronzer keeping your skin radiant. Go for powder bronzer rather than liquid bronzer as it will help your makeup from melting down.
Always carry a touch-up kit
Face powder and blotting papers are something which you must carry in your bags. These are something which you must not forget as they are the makeup saviour. To prevent the under eyeliner from getting smudge carry some Q-tips in case few teardrops come out of your eyes. Also, keep your lipstick handy for reapplying after every drink or a major meal.
Summers is the best time to use either powder based or gel based makeup so that it stays longer and keeps your look a dewy and fresh touch.
