Foundation in the heat

Is anyone wearing foundation in the heat? I've got to tinted moisturiser on but have a couple of spots it won't hide.

  • Do you use a cover stick on the spots? I use Loreal concealer on any spots and then put tinted moisturiser on over it.

    i try not to wear foundation at all when it gets really warm as it tends to slip off/disappear through the day, but i get on better with a mineral powder foundation if i have to. i can usually get away with a bb cream (really like the boots one in the green tube) & a mineral concealer on any area that needs a little extra coverage.

    I watched a video this week on YouTube by Wayne Goss, he suggests moisturiser, then buffing loose powder over your skin, THEN foundation (counter intuitive I know) to give your make up staying power. Might be worth a shot?

    Estee Lauder Double Wear, can be mixed with other products for a lighter look, either way it wont budge :)

    Max factor facefinity primer, concealer and foundation in one applied after moisturiser has definately sunk in followed by MUA fixing mist. I also use the mist to moisturise in afternoon once.

    Depends... Double Wear set with powder and urban decays Oil slick is heat proof. I can apply that at 8am and when I remove my makeup at 10pm there is still reasonable coverage- I touch my face (rest my chin in my hand) a lot

    However once I have a bit of a tan I can go down to Clinique cc cream, with bronzer mascara & lipgloss!
