Hey! Now that summer is near and it's super hot outside, I'm having a hard time trying to make my face-makeup stay on. I sweat ALOT, it keeps running down my face like this: http://www.impactlab.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/5-kurt-face-sweat-454.jpg

So that makes my makeup run off as well. No matter if I use setting sprays or water-resistant foundations. I haven't had any luck with BB creams either. So I'm wondering if any of you have the same problem as me, and have found a solution? :D Any products that works for you?

I use Mark. Matte-Nificent Oil Absorbing Powder to blot my face, because I too haven't really found a solution. Although I was using Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation one summer and it held up, but it's a heavy foundtion and it doesn't have a good match for my skin.

Try using Ben Nye's Neutral Set Translucent because it's got a antiperspirant in it to control sweat!

You should try using a mattifying primer, setting powder or setting spray. I hear Urban Decay Deslick works very well

Have you tried MUFE Mat Velvet +? its water resistant. MUFE and MAC's face and body foundations are waterproof so they might stay longer.
Do you have oliy skin? Skincare does help a ton. The right light mattifying moisturizer and balancing toner goes a long way.

During the summer always used a cream foundation and liquid concealer thats my thing for the summer...primer keeps the sweat for making ur makeup greasy or messy. The winter just liquid to give it that dewy look instead of looking dry..summer you wanna have the natural glow but not looking sweaty. Bronzer is a must !

This is going to sound a little weird & is probably not good for your skin haha, but seeing as how I can't afford any like spray to spray on my face to make it stay, I use my hairspray. I promise it works like magic!
