KEEP YOUR MONSOON MAKE-UP INTACT
- During monsoon, a light and sheer makeup is more advisable, as dense makeup has a risk of being smudged and washed out severely.
- Use transfer-resistant lipsticks, and waterproof mascara and liners.
- Wash and cleanse your face thoroughly and rub an ice cube on your face for 5-10 minutes to lower the sweating rate for saving the makeup for a longer period of time.
- Women with oily skin can use astringent while those with dry to normal skin can use toner after the ice to cool and refresh the skin.
- Avoid foundation and prepare the base of makeup using powder slightly.
- Film of light brown, beige, pastel or pink cream eye shadow can be used along with a thin line of eyeliner.
- Use water-based moisturizers during the rainy season to keep away the oily skin.
- Use light cream blush in shades of pink, peach and brown, and blend it well.
- Keep your eyebrows in shape and don’t use an eyebrow pencil during a downpour.
