Six Ways To Sweat-Proof Your Look: P&G Everyday

While it's somewhat counterintuitive, the warming climes of spring and summer do not lend themselves well to makeup primers. But how else can you keep your look going strong while enjoying the outdoors? When temperatures rise, we need to do all we can to keep our makeup from wilting five minutes after application. Here are my six best anti-sweat beauty tactics to keep your perspiration from preempting your pretty.

1. Keep Moisturizing Your Face
A common way to combat extra sweat and uninvited shine on your face during the warmer months is to skip putting on moisturizer. But friends, this is a bad idea. Your skin still needs moisture no matter what the temp, and skipping this step can actually result in increased sebum production. You don’t have to use a thick formula — use a light BB cream with SPF which will both moisturize and add a hint of coverage while protecting your skin from the sun's rays. One to try? Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream.

2. Use Powder, Please
Keeping a compact with pressed powder (try CoverGirl Clean Pressed Powder) on hand for on-the-go touchups is key in the summer. Who wants to get stuck looking shiny and slick in any and all Instagrams? Blot your T-zone with a powder shade as close to your own skin tone as possible for an instantly fresh-looking complexion.
