10 Summer Makeup Ideas for Glowy Sweatproof Looks

Keep a soothing, cooling face mist in your bag for an instant mid-day refresh.

The Strategy: Choose a mist with ingredients like aloe, cucumber, or rose water. Mist your face whenever you feel overheated.
Why it Works: It lowers the temperature of your skin, which helps prevent the overproduction of oil caused by heat-induced stress.

Prep with SPF: Always start with a non-greasy, invisible SPF 50. If your base layer is oily, nothing you put on top will stay.
Blot, Don’t Wipe: If you get shiny, use blotting papers rather than wiping your face. Wiping will displace your makeup; blotting only lifts the excess oil.
Less is More: The most effective “sweatproof” technique is simply wearing less product. When you have less makeup on your skin, there is less that can migrate or settle into fine lines.
