Makeup Must-Haves for Summer
By Jolean McPherson

Thanks to Florida’s heat and humidity, just walking from your house to your mailbox in the summer is enough to cause your hair to frizz and your makeup to melt off your face. There are, however, some things you can do to beat the heat, protect your face from sun damage and eliminate shiny, oily skin. Here are some makeup must-haves for summer – or for any time, year-round in sunny Florida.

Sunscreen: The best way to take care of your skin and prevent aging, skin cancer and other sun-induced skin damage is to wear sunscreen daily. A minimum of SPF 15 is recommended by most makeup experts. Cosmedicine’s Medi-Matte Oil Control Lotion with SPF 20 is one unique product that includes a sunscreen, moisturizer and oil-evaporator all in one. It is available exclusively at Sephora.

Oil-free Daily Moisturizer: Look for a product that also reverses the signs of sun damage, such as uneven skin tone, sun spots and fine lines. One to check out is Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Sun-Damage daily moisture lotion.

Oil-absorbing Sheets: Try The Body Shop’s Tea Tree Oil Facial Blotting Tissues or Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets. Or just spray on Cosmedicine Medi-Matte Oil Control Spray, which evaporates oil, blots shine instantly and even visibly minimizes pores.

Oil Control Pressed Powder: Arbonne’s Intelligence Personalizer helps balance oily redness and keeps your matte finish intact for hours. Or try bareMinerals’ Mineral Veil, which absorbs oil and gives you a natural, shine-free finish.

Mineral Makeup: It’s all the rage right now for women who want the appearance of bare skin with full coverage. For the best results, look for 100 percent natural ingredients – no preservatives, oil, fragrances, talc or other skin irritants. You might start with bareMinerals, which is currently the number one mineral makeup. Prescriptives has also just launched a new line of mineral makeup that is worth checking out.

Waterproof or Water Resistant Makeup: If you plan to spend a lot of time around the pool or at the beach, you won’t want it streaking down your face after you take a dip.

Clarisonic Skincare Brush: The creators of the Sonicare toothbrush are now applying sonic frequencies to facial cleaning, which move the skincare brush back and forth at more than 300 times per second. Its micro-massage will help clear your pores and loosen makeup, dirt and oil.

Any combination of the above products should help you save face and keep you looking cool, even when the heat is hot enough to fry an egg on the pavement outside your house.
