The hot and sexy weather is rapidly approaching but are you ready to handle the heat? here are a few must-have items that we recommend to keep in your summer beauty survival kit so instead of worrying about your face makeup melting off, you will instead be thinking of ways to flirt with that hottie that’s looking your way.

Lip Balm with SPF - having crusty crusts for lips are definitely not attractive, use a lip balm to keep your lips nice and soft while keeping them protected with some SPF, some varieties even come with a tint of color.

SPF Tinted Moisturizers - In the summer its especially important to let your skin breathe as much as possible so its a good idea to use a tinted moisturizer instead of a full cover foundation which will feel quite heavy and risk melting off your face on those hot days.

Waterproof Mascara - No doubt that you will be sweating bullets on those hot days if you’re outside, use a waterproof mascara to avoid the risk of smudging it while wiping away the sweat.

Blotting Papers - on those days that you do decide to go a bit more complete with the makeup, use blotting papers to reduce the shine without ruining your flawless face.

Makeup Setting Spray - prevents makeup slippage, controls oil and shine while providing a cooling effect on your skin.

Sunglasses - of course you’ve got to let your skin rest so try and go au-naturale as much as possible, use those trendy sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun and and nobody will know you’re not wearing any makeup.

Are you ready for the summer?
