3 Face Products to Swap Out for Summer
When temperatures rise, keeping your makeup fresh can be quite the challenge. Ditch the heavy layers of makeup, and give your skin more freedom to breathe in the heat of the summer sun by switching your beauty routine for a light and flawless look.
Foundation vs. CC Cream
Survive the heat and avoid your makeup from caking by swapping your foundation for a benefit-packed CC or BB cream or mineral-based powder foundation. CC and BB creams are lightweight and can heal, restore and nourish your skin. Mineral-based foundations are also great for your skin because of their natural feel and concentration of benefits.
Lipstick vs. Tinted Balm
We know — lipstick can completely transform your look. But during the summer, opt for tinted balms with a stain and SPF to keep color, healthy moisture and sun protection on your lips. Lipsticks can contain a thick mix of oils and pigments that clog the pores surrounding the outer corners of your mouth, creating a breeding zone for annoying little bumps.
Contouring vs. A Bit of Highlight
Contouring is the process of creating an illusion of more defined facial features by blending darker shades with lighter shades. Though popular in the makeup and beauty industry, it can create a heavy layer of makeup that will melt in the summer heat, blurring your “defined features” into a murky mess. Instead, dab a little highlight along the tops of your cheekbones for a glowing look without weighing your skin down with layers of pigment.
Lightening up your makeup can begin to work wonders for your skin, especially if you choose products that are packed with beneficial properties.
