It's only our second month of Spring here in Australia and we've already had a tonne of hot, sticky, humid days hit us. I can only imagine what summer will be like.
In this post I share with you my 30+ degree day beauty essentials for days I want to glam up but not have my face melt off from the heat.
The first thing is the most important when being out in the sun all day: sunscreen. I've been using Skinstitut's water resistant, age defence SPF 50 sunscreen and so far I've been loving it under my makeup. I use it after my face has been well moisturised and it soaks in nicely to my skin. I love knowing that my face is being well looked after under the blazing sun.
My rosebud salve lip balm has been my ride or die all year round - I cannot live without this thing. I apply this before I put on any other lip products and it keeps my lips super hydrated.
As a base for daytime, this NARS tinted moisturiser is my go-to. I hate the heavy feeling of foundation during the day and unless I'm at a day to night event, foundation isn't really an option. This particular tinted moisturiser has an added SPF and is so light weight and thin in consistency while still providing coverage I'm happy with.
Cream products are ideal for hot summer days as they look much more natural and also helps the longevity of powders. You guys know how much I love my Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel cream bronzer. It gives me that sun-kissed look and definitely helps to keep my powder bronzer stay put throughout the heat.
If I'm wearing eyeshadow during the day I usually opt for a completely matte neutral eye - this Stila one is one of my faves. So quick and easy to put together a minimal eye look or even a daytime smoky eye which I like to do sometimes, depending on the occasion.
Highlighters are my favourite beauty products so I wouldn't skip out on it even if it may make me look like a grease ball in the sun. My skin type is dry so I absolutely love the dewy look - especially in the summertime.
Nude shades for the lips are my best bet when it comes to daytime glam. If I'm out and about during the day it usually involves a meal or two. Don't get me wrong, I love my bright lippies but nudes are my safe option, easier to apply than a bold colour - especially without a mirror!
Last but not least, my holy grail setting spray: MUFE mist+fix. This is so important for keeping all that hard work in place!
'Nuff said.
