Essentials for face:
Where I live it is beyond hot already so anything that goes on the face goes right back off so a small amount of makeup does the job. For myself a BB cream just does not do its job. I have combination skin more oily than anything so it looks like a hot mess after an hour in the heat! I love love love MAC studio fix powder/foundation on the face. It stays put and gives a good coverage without all the extraness. Put a little concealer to hide those mommy circles under that with of course a moisturizer or primer (use MAC Fix+ as a moisturizer) Throw on some bronze eye shadow and you are good to go. The last essential which I think is a big plus is MACs Fix+ it sets the makeup so it does not move and also gives a hydrating feel for the face. Having this in your makeup bag is a need for whenever it gets too hot outside. just spray a few sprits on the face and the hotness goes away.
Essentials on the lips/cheeks:
Throw on some bronzer to give that beautiful glow with any fave blush; mine is Luminoso by Milani; and a coat of mascara and you are set. As for the lips pink anything! I love pink lips for the summer so a tinted moisturizer, or a lipstick and it sets the whole look and adds that extra umf to your flawless summer look without having that full face on.
These are my summer essentials and are what I have been going for. for the past few days and probably the next few weeks since the heat is only getting hotter!! what are your summer essentials?
