The monsoon is here. While you're gearing up to welcome the season with the latest rain
gear and monsoon fashion trends, why not also go for waterproof make-up? Since the
weather is humid, it's best to let your skin breathe. So go minimal and avoid subjecting your
face to layers of make-up. If you still want to wear make-up, there are many brands of
water-proof make-up available in the market. Here's how to apply make-up the right way, so
that it lasts longer and doesn't drip, even when the rain Gods aren't in your favour.
Whether you have patchy or clear skin, apply a make-up primer to your face, as it's good for
heavy coverage. The primer will flatten out the surface of your skin and help your make-up stay on.
Apply a light coat of an oil-free tinted moisturiser, like a BB cream. Don't go for liquid or
creamy foundations, as these can melt in humid weather. For touch-ups, use a lightweight finishing powder.
To cover up dark circles and blemishes, use an oil-free concealer. Make sure that there is no oil content in your make-up.
Once you've prepped your face and applied a light moisturiser, lightly dust your face with
pressed or loose powder to absorb all the excess oil and moisture.
Next, apply a light-coloured powder blush to the apples of your cheeks.
If you plan to do eye make-up and don't want your eye shadow to crease, use an eyelid
primer to your lids before you apply the eye shadow.
For a simple bold liner look, use a liquid eyeliner; as compared to wax-based pencil
eyeliners, these are more likely to resist smearing.
Use water-proof mascara for your eyelashes.
To finish off, moisturise you lips with a lip balm and apply lipstick.
