Tips and Tricks to Ace Your Base this Monsoon
Wondering how to make your makeup last longer during Monsoon? Your makeup needs to be done according to the weather. Follow these tips and you'll be good to go.
Monsoon, the flag bearer of rain and humidity, is the season of horror for those who love doing makeup. Imagine turning up at an important event with your makeup messed up. The humidity is bound to melt your base away. But a few changes in your makeup routine can help you achieve that flawless base that will last all day long. Sharing a few hacks on how to make your base last long during the monsoon season.
Use a Gripping Primer
Gripping primers are the saviours because they hold the makeup on your face for a longer period. Its sticky texture plays a key role. They don’t let the base budge. Gripping primers also have hydrating properties which help the makeup to sit well on the face. There are several viral gripping primers available in the market, so don’t forget to add them to the cart.
Add Skin Tints to your Makeup Routine
Ditch the foundation and choose a skin tint instead. Foundations make the base heavy which might look cakey or ashen after sweating. Therefore, use skin tints because they’re lightweight and blend into the skin just like a moisturiser.
Apply Concealer Only Where Needed
Don’t layer up the concealer, just apply it where it’s needed the most. Put a dot or two under the eyes, spot conceal the acne mark and blend it seamlessly with a wet beauty blender. Less is more because if the concealer is layered up then it’ll crease and turn patchy. The humid weather will make it look terrible.
Set Everything with Loose Powder
Dab loose setting powder all over the face for shine control and setting the base. This will ensure that the base stays intact for hours. The important area is the T-zone where the oil production is maximum so don’t forget to set the area.
If available, a setting spray can be used to lock in the makeup. Some setting sprays might be drying on the skin, so only use them if they work for you and don’t dry out your skin.
Follow the tips and slay all day. These tips will help you achieve a flawless base. All hail the useful makeup products!
