The summer is almost ready to knock on our doors and the scorching heat and the sweaty troubles will, inevitably, follow! Now is the perfect time to get ourselves ready for the uphill summer skincare battle by updating and upgrading our handbags with just the summer makeup products we need to get a summer-special makeup. After all, the winter products won’t cut it anymore, right?
So, let’s see what our summer skincare handbag should look like:
1. Swap the foundation with the CC cream

Heavy makeup bases are a strict no-no for the summers. What you need is a fine functional replacement like the multi-functional BB and CC creams. Lightweight with a barely-there feel, they supply your skin with the best-ever even-toned protective coverage.
2. Ditch the highlighters for the bronzer

If you wish to get the finest highlights, highlighters might not be the best way any more. Cooler, easier, and more effective with the results, a bronzer can get you a fabulous holiday-perfect look blending the magical effect of a little tan and a lively glow.

High on heat, the summers can leave your powdered blush all cakey and streaky (and let’s just not talk about what a b*tch sweat can be!). The water-resistant, liquid-based goodness of the cheek stain will not only be easier to blend but it’ll also give you a beautifully moisturized skin as well.
4. Say no to your regular mascara for the waterproof ones

Summers is all about the great fun – outdoor games (with a lot of sweat) and swimming (with a lot of water), but now you can keep your dreamy-eye look no matter what you’re doing by switching to the waterproof mascara. Blink a wink to the heat! 😉
5. Lose the lip color, liner, and gloss, all for the lip crayon!

Finally, you don’t need to carry so many lip products because here’s the perfect one with the goodness of all – a lip crayon! The fineness of the liner, the rich color of the lipsticks, and the glow of the gloss, all-in-one!
6. Find your moisturizer, primer, and protector in one product
