Welcome back to Hustle and Hack! Today, we are talking about a topic that is quite possibly on many people’s minds. That’s right. Sweatproof makeup. As summer approaches, and the heat is getting more intense, products with sweatproof abilities are flying off shelves at Sephora and other department stores.

Beauty bloggers and vloggers have been making tutorials on full face makeup routines, as well as lighter coverage for simple day looks. While watching these videos, I was frantically writing down all the products that looked super helpful, and knew instantly that I wanted to make an article on the best products. So, without further ado, here are the top 6 products that will almost guarantee a makeup look to stay on during a sweltering summer day.

Start with a hydrating mist. In the summer, your skin can become more susceptible to oil and acne. It’s important to keep your face fresh, clean, and refreshed. Mario Badescu makes a mist infused with aloe, herbs, and rosewater. The best part? It’s only $7! You can purchase it online from Saks Fifth Avenue.

Next, use a foundation. The Lancôme Ultra 24-hour foundation works wonders. I’ve used this product myself and found that it lasts all day and doesn’t clog your pores. It also keeps your makeup light and airy, while providing good coverage all-day long. Make sure to apply it with a damp beauty blender so it gets in all the little cracks and crevices. If you don’t want to use a full foundation, then use a BB cream. Try Tarte Amazonian Clay BB Cream with moisturizer and SPF 20.
