But trust us, with these simple tricks, you can conquer the midday makeup slump! Get ready to learn how to keep your makeup looking flawless from morning chai to evening drinks.
Blot Away the Oil:
The first step to refreshing your makeup is tackling excess oil. Throughout the day, especially in warm weather, our skin produces sebum, which can make our makeup look shiny and cause it to break down.
Instead of piling on more powder, which can make your makeup look cakey, reach for blotting papers. These little lifesavers are designed to absorb oil without disturbing your makeup. Gently press a blotting paper onto oily areas like your forehead, nose, and chin.
You'll be surprised at how much oil they absorb! Avoid rubbing the paper across your face, as this can smear your makeup. Just a gentle press and lift will do the trick. Once you've blotted away the excess oil, your skin will instantly look fresher and less greasy.
This simple step makes a big difference in reviving your overall makeup look. Always keep a pack of blotting papers in your handbag for quick touch-ups on the go. It is a game changer for anyone who wants to keep to maintain their looks for long periods.
Hydrate Your Skin with a Face Mist:
Dehydration can make your skin look dull and tired, which can also affect the appearance of your makeup. A quick spritz of face mist can instantly hydrate your skin and revitalize your makeup. Choose a hydrating face mist that contains ingredients like hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
Close your eyes and hold the mist about arm's length away from your face. Lightly spritz the mist, allowing it to settle on your skin. The mist will not only hydrate your skin but will also help to set your makeup and prevent it from looking cakey. It's like a refreshing drink for your face!
Avoid using face mists that contain alcohol, as these can dry out your skin. A hydrating mist will leave your skin feeling refreshed, dewy, and ready to take on the rest of the day.
Face mists can be a quick and effective way to help your skin remain hydrated through the day so you can maintain your looks. Having a small bottle of face mist you can easily carry around is a huge advantage.
Brighten Your Eyes with Concealer:
As the day goes on, dark circles and under-eye shadows can become more prominent, making you look tired. A touch of concealer can instantly brighten your eyes and refresh your overall look. Use a lightweight, creamy concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin tone.
Apply a small amount of concealer to the inner corners of your eyes and under your eyes, blending it well with your finger or a small brush. This will help to conceal any dark circles and brighten your under-eye area. Avoid using too much concealer, as this can make your makeup look cakey.
Just a small amount is enough to make a big difference. Set the concealer with a light dusting of powder to prevent it from creasing. Brightening your eyes is a quick and easy way to look more awake and refreshed. Bringing concelear can be a great addition for a longer routine.
Revive Your Blush:
Blush is one of the most important steps as it gives you the necessary colour your makeup needs. Over time, blush can fade, making your complexion look dull. To revive your blush, simply reapply a small amount of powder blush to the apples of your cheeks.
Choose a blush shade that complements your skin tone. A powder blush is best for touch-ups as it's less likely to disrupt your existing makeup. Use a fluffy blush brush to apply the blush, blending it well for a natural finish.
If you're using a cream blush, gently tap it onto your cheeks with your fingers. Adding a pop of color to your cheeks will instantly brighten your complexion and make you look more awake. Experiment with different shades of blush to find your perfect match.
The added colour is a fast way to give the face the neccesary colour and is really useful.
Reapply Lipstick or Lip Gloss:
Lipstick and lip gloss are usually the first to fade because of eating and drinking. To refresh your lip color, reapply your favorite lipstick or lip gloss. Before reapplying, blot your lips with a tissue to remove any leftover product.
This will help your new application look smoother and last longer. If your lips are dry, apply a lip balm before reapplying your lip color. This will hydrate your lips and prevent your lipstick from cracking or flaking. You can also try layering different lip products for a customized look.
A fresh coat of lipstick or lip gloss can instantly brighten your face and make you look more put-together. Lipsticks come in a variety of colour so choose accordingly to make sure the colours don't clash.
Tame Frizz and Flyaways:
Makeup isn't the only thing that needs refreshing during the day; your hair can also use a little TLC. Humidity and heat can cause frizz and flyaways, making your hair look messy and unkempt. To tame frizz and flyaways, try using a small amount of hair serum or hairspray.
Apply the product to your palms and smooth it over your hair, focusing on the areas that are most frizzy. You can also use a travel-sized hair brush or comb to smooth down any stray hairs. For a quick fix, try using a dry shampoo to absorb excess oil and add volume to your roots.
Taming frizz and flyaways will instantly make your hair look more polished and put-together, completing your refreshed look. Remember to apply products in moderation, as too much can weigh your hair down.
