Different seasons bring different weather conditions that can pose challenges to your makeup. From cold winter winds to hot and humid summer days, the weather has a way of messing up your look. To help you weather-proof your makeup, we’ve put together some of our top makeup tips for all seasons.

Winter

Winter weather can take a toll on your skin. To keep your makeup looking flawless all season, prep your skin with a hydrating moisturizer. This will help keep snowflakes off your cheeks and make sure your skin looks hydrated and healthy. Then use a primer to lock in the moisture and keep your base makeup in place through the cold weather.

When it comes to foundation, steer away from matte formulas and opt for a dewy formula instead. This will help keep your skin looking radiant and healthy. To help resist the cold, integrate bold color into your look with a bright, eye catching lipstick. This will help bring your look to life in the cold, winter months.

Spring

Spring weather can bring a mix of temperatures, plenty of sunshine and lots of moisture. To help your look last through it all, a great waterproof foundation is key. Look for a foundation that has a matte finish to help battle oily skin and keep you looking fresh through the warm, wet days.

Then, complement your foundation with a long-lasting mascara for bold, voluminous lashes. Skip the highlighter and opt for a cream blush for a natural-looking flush of color. Cream blush will help keep your look looking dewy and fresh all season long. Last, apply some long-wearing lip color to keep your pout looking amazing all day long.

Summer

Summer means hot weather, which can take a toll on your skin. To make sure your makeup lasts through the heat, start with a lightweight foundation and add just a touch of powder to keep your makeup in place without feeling heavy on your skin.

For your eyes, use a waterproof eyeliner to keep you looking sharp even on a hot and humid day. To keep your cheeks looking light and fresh, use a cream blush or a light dusting of bronzer. Finally, end your look with some long-wearing gloss or a lip tint to keep your lips looking luscious all day long.

Fall

Fall has a unique weather pattern that can be unpredictable. To weather-proof your look, start your makeup routine with an oil-free moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and healthy. Next, use a foundation with medium coverage that will help keep your skin looking natural and allow the autumn tones to peek through. For your eyes, switch out your liquid liner for a soft pencil liner to keep your look looking authentically autumn.

Accentuate your cheeks with some natural highlights and set it with a light dusting of powder. Then, finish your look with a rich, berry toned lipstick. This will help keep your look looking autumnal and timeless throughout the season.

By following these makeup tips for all seasons, you’re sure to have a weather-proof look that will have you looking flawless no matter the weather!
