5 Hacks for Long-Lasting Makeup During Monsoon

Monsoon may bring cool breezes and romantic rains, but it also comes with its own set of makeup woes, such as humidity, sweating, smudging, and melting makeup. But don’t worry! Here are five hacks that you can opt to beat the weather and keep your glam game strong all day.

5 Hacks for Long-Lasting Makeup During Monsoon

Here are five smart and simple monsoon makeup hacks to make your look last longer and stay fresh during monsoon.

1. Prime Like A Pro

A good primer acts as a barrier between your skin and makeup, controlling oil and locking everything in place. Use a mattifying or oil-free primer to absorb excess moisture. Focus on areas that tend to get oily first, like the T-zone, forehead, and chin.

2. Choose Lightweight Foundation

Heavy creams and thick foundations are more likely to melt in humidity. Opt for lightweight, water-based foundations or tinted moisturisers. Use waterproof eyeliner, mascara, and kajal to avoid panda eyes. Switch to powder or gel blushes instead of cream-based ones.

3. Opt For Loose Powder

Setting powder helps absorb sweat and prevents makeup from sliding off your face. Use a translucent loose powder to set your base makeup and under-eye concealer. Lightly dab with a fluffy brush, don’t overdo it or it’ll look cakey.

4. Stick To Matte Products

Dewy and glossy products might look pretty, but they don’t last under monsoon moisture. Use matte-finish foundations, blushes, and lipsticks for better staying power. Avoid creamy or glossy lipsticks; go for matte stains or lip crayons.

5. Use A Long-Lasting Setting Spray

A good setting spray is like an umbrella for your makeup; it seals everything in place. Look for a humidity-resistant, mattifying setting spray. Spray it in an “X” and “T” motion to evenly coat your face.
