In the summertime, there will be a lot of pool-parties, beach days, water sports and sun tanning…and of course there will be a significant rise in the amount of sweat and sebum that break out all over the body, which may take off the make-up. But don’t worry! This problem isn’t really a problem anymore because a lot of makeup brands have blessed us with waterproof, sweat-proof, stay-all-day foundation formulas that actually do work.
But first, let me say this: Before applying waterproof foundation, you’ll need to use a moisturizer and a good primer that makes everything stay in place. Check out my post about The best primers that will help your foundation stay all day.
