The summer heat has been absolutely unbearable. We have all been dripping sweat due to the multiple heat waves.

I have created a guide on how you can do your makeup to stand against the sweltering summer heat.

As someone who lives under the humid East Coast climate, I've figured out a way to make my makeup stay on without any issue.
