JUST as it seemed that summer was over, the mercury is once again hitting 30C across much of the UK. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n But while the gorgeous weather might be perfect for picnics in the park and evenings on the patio with a tipple, there\u2019s one thing it\u2019s certainly not helpful for \u2013 keeping your make-up in place.\u00a0<\/p>\n To help out, Hayley Walker \u2013 a qualified make-up artist with more than 20 years of experience \u2013 has put together a list of her essential tips to make sure you look flawless while enjoying the sunshine.\u00a0<\/p>\n Hayley is the resident beauty expert at JustMyLook, a website where you can quickly and easily pick up everything from make-up and skincare to fragrances and nails.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s safe to say the hot weather can lead to make-up meltdowns and hot messes,\u201d Hayley explains, and without adapting your usual routine you can find your make-up \u201cbarely survives the morning commute\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n Below are her favourite heatwave hacks to \u201csave you time from having to constantly top up your look throughout the day\u201d.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cEverybody should be wearing SPF daily to protect themselves from UV rays, regardless of the weather,\u201d says Hayley, but when it\u2019s as sunny as this it\u2019s especially important.\u00a0<\/p>\n The key is to wait at least 15 minutes after applying your facial sunscreen before you start piling on your make-up base layer.\u00a0<\/p>\n Although it might mean hoping out of bed a few minutes earlier, it\u2019s an absolute must, because applying your foundation straight on top of SPF could interfere with your skin absorbing it.<\/p>\n That means even if you\u2019ve slapped on the sunscreen, you might not be fully protected from the strong UV rays, contributing in the short-run to sunburn, and in the long-run to premature wrinkling and ageing.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/picture>GREAT DANE <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>MYSTIC MEG <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>CLEAN MACHINE <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>COUS LOVE <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n What\u2019s more, if the oily sun cream isn\u2019t given long enough to sink in, then your foundation might end up clinging to some areas of your face more than others.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThis can lead to uneven coverage,\u201d Hayley warns.\u00a0<\/p>\n Usually, \u201ca dewy base is a must-have make-up look\u201d, says Hayley \u2013 think of the obsession with Hailey Beiber\u2019s so-called \u201cglazed-donut\u201d style.\u00a0<\/p>\n But in hotter weather, \u201cyour skin naturally looks more luminous as it sweats more\u201d, meaning you need less of a helping hand from products.\u00a0<\/p>\n So when it\u2019s warmer, you\u2019re much better off switching to a matte foundation, blush and bronzer.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThey are more resistant to sweat than dewy finish foundations,\u201d explains Hayley, which makes then \u201cless likely to break down in humidity leaving your complexion looking oil-free all day\u201d.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for the perfect matte option on a budget, Hayley recommends Eveline Cosmetics Liquid Control Matifying Drops Foundation (\u00a38.15), which is perfectly lightweight and smoothing.<\/p>\n Applying primer is usually a \u201cstep in the make-up routine that gets missed out on those busy work days\u201d, Hayley admits.\u00a0<\/p>\n But when the weather heats up, it\u2019s an absolute essential if your to have any chance of making it though the day without looking as though you\u2019re face is melting.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cPrimer makes a smooth surface for make-up to cling to,\u201d explains the cosmetics guru, which is especially important when you\u2019re using products like SPF underneath your foundation.\u00a0<\/p>\n For the best result, opt for a uber-hydrating primer, however much that might seem nonsensical when you\u2019re sweating.\u00a0<\/p>\n Hayley\u2019s favourite is The Beauty Crop\u2019s Vitamin Babe Brightening Primer (\u00a39.95), which she finds helps make-up stay in place for hours on end, \u201ceven on hot summer days\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n As she explains, hydrating products like the above stop any areas becomes dry and flaky, \u201cessential in making sure our look stays put\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n When we\u2019re faced with warm weather, many of us opt for a heavy, full-coverage foundation in the hope that it will last a bit longer.\u00a0<\/p>\n But this is actually counter-productive, because heavier foundations will often make the rest of your make-up come off quicker.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cA rich, moisturising base can lead to make-up sliding and sweating off,\u201d Hayley explains, leading to the dreaded panda-eyes look when your mascara starts to run.\u00a0<\/p>\n You\u2019re much better off opting for a \u201cwaterproof, lightweight mate base\u201d, Hayley explains \u2013 you\u2019re less likely to sweat it off, and the rest of your products will sit on it much better.\u00a0<\/p>\n For the eyes, Hayley recommends the bargain \u00a33.95 Catrice Cosmetics Pure Volume Waterproof Mascara, which has fab staying power<\/span> even when you're sweating buckets. <\/p>\n But when you do, make sure you\u2019re using a formulated waterproof-make-up remover at the end of every day, Hayley adds.\u00a0<\/p>\n When commuting in the heat, one thing most of us really struggle with is particular areas \u2013 usually the forehead and inner cheeks \u2013 getting really oily.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cCertain parts of the face are more prone to shine,\u201d Hayley agrees, so they need a bit of extra care when the temperature hots up.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cMake sure to apply translucent powder to areas such as the T-zone\u201d \u2013 the T-shaped area comprising your forehead, nose and chin \u2013 \u201cto keep your complexion looking cool\u201d, Hayley says.\u00a0<\/p>\n One of Hayley\u2019s favourite options for this is the \u00a36.79 Make-up Revolutions IRL Soft Focus Translucent Power, which helps soak up excess sebum \u2013 essentially oil<\/span> \u2013 that\u2019s produced by the skin.\u00a0<\/p>\n The cosmetics whizz also adds that however tempting, you should refrain from slapping on powder all over to try and set your make-up in place.<\/p>\n \u201cIt can look cakey in the heat,\u201d she explains, and make it look as though you\u2019ve piled on your base way too thick.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Instead, Hayley advises, keep a translucent powder on you all day, and top up the T-zone at lunchtime and before any evening plans.\u00a0<\/p>\n Fabulous will pay for your exclusive stories.
