Hot, Muggy, Humid- Don't lose your face on your walk to work!

If you live in New York City OR any other place in this world that is disgustingly hot in the summer and either walk to work or ride the subway then you've walked into your work place...sweaty and the make-up you applied that morning is half way down your face. Well here are a few tips to keep that make-up on and lasting throughout the day!

- Don't use moisturizer, especially ones that have extra moisturizer AND liquid tinted moisturizer/foundation. Choose one, preferably a tinted moisturizer with SPF and apply it selectively- under the eyes and lightly on the face. (Extra sunscreen can be used, but only a dab for your cheeks, nose and forehead, but make sure it dries before applying any make-up.)
- After applying the tinted moisterizer under the eyes and lightly across the face (in the much needed areas only) Dust a bronzer on the forehead, cheek bones, and nose- Use a Bronzer brush, that's what they're there for.
- Now here is the clincher...use a gel blush like Tarte's Cheek Stain in Dollface and Natural Beauty and then sweep a powder blush on top of the gel, it will stay all day!!
- Always Pat, never rub! So when you walk into your work place all sweaty, grab a tissue and blot the face, cool down and give yourself alittle smile because your make-up is still on!!

Oh yeah, and never walk out of your place without mascara!!
