Summer make-up is a challenge for every woman who wants to be always posh regardless of outside temperature. And yet, with the scorching heat of the summer months, it is very difficult to manage make-up, avoiding it being reduced to scattered spots or beginning to run off due to sweat. Luckily for us, when we tan there is no need for primer and foundation, nor for concealer as dark circles are naturally covered with hours of rest during the holidays. Even the lipstick leaves a little breathing space, especially if nude and delicate, and it’s easy to be careful and keep it in order.
The sore point? Eye makeup! Mascara, pencils, eyeliner, not to mention eyeshadows! These products are really difficult to use in the summer, because they are the first victims of heat and sweat. So how to do make-up without risking to look like you just came out of the water with all the make-up on your face? The answer, at least as far as eyeshadow is concerned, is to use nude and super-delicate colors: a color that matches the tone of our complexion will limit the damage caused by high temperatures, and if there will be any trimming it won’t be noticed! To make the most of a summer eye make-up, these eyeshadow palettes are absolutely a must-have!
