Beat the Heat: Sweat-proof beauty products

In the south, temperatures can rise into the 100 degree mark with full humidity. That means going to an event outdoors can lead to your makeup being a sweaty mess, and we do not want that when we’re trying to look our best. Over my years of working hot bridal days and beach photoshoot sessions, where the glam needs to be perfect, I have cultivated my favorite sweat-proof products to keep your look locked in. Take a look below!

Swake: Sweat-proof foundation $59

Built for athletes to be able to wear in sweaty gym conditions, this foundation has made it way to the top of my kit for those sweltering hot days. I absolutely love the coverage and feel of this foundation. It dries down and feels almost invisible on your skin. Made with natural ingredients and an anti-aging formula to help with puffiness, redness, and sweat control. It is my holy grail for long-lasting southern heat-proof makeup.

One Size: ON til Dawn setting spray $32

This setting spray is like glue for your face. It will lock in the fullest of glam and make sure it stays put for your entire event. For those who may have an outdoor event and need extra protection, this setting spray is it! The Swake Foundation + One Size setting spray is a hit you don’t want to miss.

Essence Lash Princess Waterproof Mascara $5

At only $5 this water proof mascara is a steal! I love essence products because they always pack a huge punch with a little price tag. Their waterproof mascara is extra waterproof and doesn’t flake off or budge at all. Even through tears, pool days, sweat, or other summer water activities, this product isn’t going anywhere. Prepare to look your best all summer long!

Kylie Cosmetics Matte Liquid Lip $19

Kylie really knew what she was doing with this version of her matte liquid lipsticks. They are completely waterproof, sweatproof, kiss proof and totally un-smudgeable. I swear by these to my brides who want a matte lip to last them all night long. Plus, at $19 they are relatively affordable.

Kylie Cosmetics Body Glow $25

This became a staple fast. If you follow me on stories you saw me try this and quickly become a fan. Once I applied the body glow and realized it lasted me all night long without feeling greasy, sticky, or wiping off, I was hooked. Miss Kylie has stepped up her game to compete.. This body shimmer product has a similar texture to a liquid eyeshadow in the sense that it dries down completely and has a barely there satin finish once applied and WILL NOT BUDGE…even in water. If your vibe is looking like a golden goddess without the grease, then this is the product for you. I purchased the shade ‘built different’ which is a beautiful warm copper shade that compliments light to medium and olive skin tones.

Thank you so much for reading! I love compiling my thoughts into monthly blogs like this where I can go a little more in depth about products and how they’ve worked for me! If you have tried any of these, please let me know if you love them as much as I do!
