How to make your mascara last the summer heat!

1.Curl them up!

The process of fashioning a lasting lash begins with an eyelash curler and a hairdryer. Instead of haphazardly wielding your curler to achieve a lackluster bend in your lashes, prepare the tool with a gust of hot air from the hairdryer or by running it under hot water. Allow the curler to cool slightly before applying to your lashline, and prepare for a wilt-proof fringe.


2. Take time to prime

Primer is an integral component of ensuring heatproof lashes. By providing an even base to which your mascara can adhere, you can effectively double the durability of your daily mascara. When applying primer, make sure to deposit any excess product back into the primer tube before coating your lashes. Allow your lashes to dry before moving on to the next step.


3. Put on your powder

While powdering your T-zone to increase the resilience of your foundation in the heat seems logical, powdering your lashes to improve their longevity smacks of deception. Nevertheless, applying a thin layer of baby powder atop your eyelash primer or bare lashes simultaneously builds the length and volume of lashes, and creates another heatproof layer to withstand perspiration. Using a clean mascara wand or your finger, lightly dust baby powder through the roots and tips of your lashes, and tap away any excess before moving onto the next step.


4. Make your peace with waterproof formulas

Your wedding day isn't the only occasion on which waterproof mascara is appropriate. Despite its difficulty of removal and greater potential to clump if applied incorrectly, waterproof mascara is a must during the summer season.


5. Seal your style with a top coat

Polish off your lashes with a clear mascara that functions as a top coat to seal in your mascara and repel humidity, perspiration, and, for those lucky resort-goers, saltwater.
