Summer SAVIOURS The hot weather might be upon us but there are plenty of savvy ways you can sweat-proof your make-up and hairstyle WORDS TANIA GOMEZ A n Australian summer is all about sunshine, surf and celebration — but also, all too often, a heap of unwelcome beauty dramas! With temperatures and humidity set to soar, it's time to arm yourself against the season's biggest impediments to looking glam, from melting make-up to limp and frizzy hair, with the help of these expert tips. BUY THE RIGHT PRODUCTS You can't stop yourself from sweating but you can be selective in the beauty products you use. First, use a mattifying primer on your face, make-up artist Julia Green recommends. “Ut's) a good first step to control shine on the skin ..andit will help to absorb any excess moisture’ Julia says. You can also use the primer to spot-treat the upper lip, nose, forehead and other areas that are prone to shine, During your make-up routine, don't forget to use a setting spray to seal in your look Julia says to do this before applying mascara to avoid any mascara transfer, And use a tubing mascara as it won't smudge off. "Waterproof mascaras are removed with an oil-based make-up remover, and on humid and sweaty days your skin produces more oils - meaning it can smudge your waterproof mascara. Tubing mascara prevents this,’ Julia explains. PREPARE FOR TOUCH-UPS: It's inevitable you will have to touch up your make-up throughout the day so pack a kit to take with you. “in your kit include concealer, pressed powder and mit travel-sized setting spray’ Julia says. “Blotting papers are also a helpful addition” COMBAT LIMP LOCKS According to hair artist and colour expert Stuart Bane, avoiding limp hair is all about the products you use. “To stop your hair from going limp and greasy during summer, invest in a colour- safe, clarifying shampoo and a dry shampoo,” Stuart says. “Dry shampoo can (and should) be used on freshly washed hair. Using it before the oil arrives stops the limp locks” LIGHT When up against heat and humidity, avoid heavy beauty looks if you don't want your make-up to “melt’ off “I tend towards sheer- cover tinted moisturiser ‘or foundation and add colour using liquid or cream products’ Julia says. “For awinning summer look, try using a peach or rose-toned cheek/tip cream on your eyes, cheeks and lips, with a slick of tubing mascara for a modern monochromatic look” I KEEP MAKE-UP p=
