How to Keep Your Makeup in Place in Hot, Humid Weather

Choose water- and sweat-resistant products

Foundations and products described as "long-wear" or "water-resistant" are better suited to hot, humid weather.

Use fewer layers

The lighter your makeup layers, the less likely they are to slide or cake in the heat. Focus on covering only the areas that really need it.

Use a setting spray

A setting spray at the end of your routine helps makeup hold up longer against heat, humidity and sweat.

Carry quick touch-up tools

Blotting papers and a small pressed powder in your bag help you refresh your skin quickly without redoing your whole makeup.

Touch your face less

Touching your face often transfers oil and dust and makes makeup slide faster, especially in hot weather.
