Summer means heat, which means that your makeup will not last nearly as long as it usually does. The way that I combat that issue is by using primers. Seriously, primers become my best friend in the summer.  I used to use Smashbox’s Photo Finish on my face but the the siliconey feel feels heavy on my skin in the summer. That is why I have switched to L’Oreal Studio Secrets Face Primer. It is about a fourth of the cost of the Smashbox primer and it feels so light on my skin. It has a whipped texture that feels simply luxurious. I cannot get enough of this product! The L’Oreal Studio Secrets Face Primer retails for $10.99. There is not much worse (makeup wise) than jumping in the pool or ocean and realizing that your mascara is now halfway down your face. Waterproof mascara makes the situation a little better but I have still had multiple situations when I had waterproof mascara on and some still dripped down my face. That is why I have been loving FACE ATELIER’s LASH RX. It is not your typical mascara, instead it acts as a primer. It is a white formula that primes your lashes so that when you apply your mascara they are longer and thicker. SCULPT MASCARA also helps conditions your lashes. After you apply FACE ATELIER’S LASH RX, I would apply a product like CRYBABY MASCARA, which is a waterproof mascara. Together these two products will ensure that your mascara stays on through the hot summer weather, the pool and the ocean! LASH RX retails for $22, while the CRYBABY MASCARA retails for $24.  FACE ATELIER products are available at www.FACEATELIER.com.
