I tend to minimize the amount of makeup I wear in hot and humid weather. I am a long-time loyal to Revlon Colorstay eyeliner, and I love gel liners’ staying power.

I use some waterproof products, but so far nothing really works, so I take along a touchup bag of makeup.

I use waterproof products when I can and I use blotting paper when I’m out and about to absorb extra oil so it doesn’t run into my makeup.

I usually carry a small hand fan and cool my face down so the makeup stays. Setting with powder also helps.

The fan is such a great idea! I think I’ll pick one up this week – it’s going to pretty hot this week in Toronto!

I keep my makeup from melting off in the summer heat by using eye shadows that are powders instead of cremes and by using waterproof makeup
