10 Must-Have Makeup Products That Can Survive The Heat

Summer makeup products need to be more stress-tested than the rest of your seasonal products. There is so much more criteria to meet. Which foundations stop your skin from looking greasy? Should you use setting powder or setting spray? (Hint: it’s both.) Until brands start offering an anti-perspirant for your face, you’re going to have to batten down the hatches and use these products in order to maintain that summer glow-up.

1. Hydrating Primer

It’s important in summer to keep your skin as nourished as possible. A hydrating primer will protect your face while creating a great base for your makeup to go on.

Makeup products that are made of the same materials will be much easier to buff out a stunning summer look with.
