Written by Sanya HamdaniMar 12, 2021

Summer comes with a lot of problems. To deal with them you tweak your skin and hair care routine to fit in products that are not oily and also offer protection. However, when it comes to makeup you continue using the same products, which often leaves you with melting foundation and smeared eyeliner.

Makeup products are formulated in different textures and for various skin types, using the same hydrating ones from winter will definitely not keep it in place. That’s why we have picked five makeup products for you that won’t melt away in the summer heat.

01. Primer

Primer is essential for anyone who wears makeup, in fact if you wear a tinted primer like the Lakmé Absolute Blur Perfect Makeup Primer, you won’t even need a heavy foundation. It can be worn alone to hide imperfections and pores to give you a flawless look as well as under makeup to get the perfect base. No matter how you use it, this primer will surely prevent your makeup from melting away in the humid weather.

02. Foundation

Picking the right foundation in summer is necessary, we recommend using a lightweight formula that easily blends into the skin. Because full coverage, heavy formulas are difficult to work with during summer. The Lakmé 9 to 5 Weightless Mousse Foundation is a weightless formula that blends well into the skin and gives a matte finish. Available in 12 shades to suit every Indian skin tone, this is a must-have for summers.

03. Lipstick

Lipstick is a must, no matter what time of the year. If you have stocked up on hydrating formulas for winter, it's time to invest in a matte lipstick that will stand the test of summer and masks. The Lakmé Absolute Matte Melt Liquid Lip Color does not smudge or budge and give a matte finish. Don’t worry it won't make your lips super dry, the lightweight formula is super comfortable on the lips.

04. Eyeliner

Ensuring your eyeliner stays where you put it and not get transferred elsewhere is a bit difficult during summer, especially if you have oily lids. But then eyeliner is a must and your face looks incomplete without it, right? We found the perfect product for you! The Lakmé Eyeconic Liquid Eyeliner smudge-free, water-proof and transfer-proof formula that keeps your winged eyeliner as is right till the end of the day.

05. Mascara

Getting through summer without a runny mascara seems impossible? Not when you have us, err I mean when you have the Lakme Absolute Flutter Secrets Dramatic Eyes Mascara. This smudge resistant, waterproof formula gives your eyes a dramatic lift and volume that lasts all day long. Whether it's a pool party you want to go to or planning to watch cute animal videos on YouTube, this mascara is sure to survive through all that.
