FRESH DIVE
With this make-up, you beat the heat
Last week, the weather was quite tropical. That comes with sun, that comes with heat, that comes with bare legs and flowy summer dresses, and yes, that also comes with a drop of sweat. Now, we could all just cough and complain that it was all so intense last week, but let's actually be incredibly happy about those days when the temperature is a bit higher than the average seventeen degrees.
And indeed, there are some things you might worry about in this weather. For example, the fact that gray shirts might not be the most practical choices and that your make-up is indeed a thing with the tropical heat. Because you can powder your face in the morning, apply a thin layer of foundation, add a drop of SPF, shape your eyebrows, and have some color sprinkled here and there, but: It. All. Comes. Off. Don't ask me how, but within an hour, you'll be living quite naturally, while you put so much effort into it in the morning. Fortunately, there is more waterproof make-up than just the well-known mascara. There are foundations that really don't budge at the highest temperatures so you can enjoy the warmth looking your best.
Oh, and since the magnificent days are quite scarce here in the Netherlands; you can also just wear the make-up during the next downpour. You'll survive that too.
