It’s cricket season! And there’s no better way to soak up the vibe than catching your favourite team or players in the stadium. You’ve got the chants, the Mexican wave, and better music than the club. But we know there’s one thing that’s deterring you from going—the summer heat that causes a serious makeup meltdown.
You can choose to go bare-faced, but if you’re hyped about wearing your team colours through your makeup, going out to celebrate your win, or simply wanting to pose for the cameras, these sweat-proof makeup picks should make it to your kit. We believe nothing should come between you and your fun, so we’ve selected these long-lasting formulas to lock your look in place for longer. No oily T-zone or smudged kajal!
HIT A BOUNDARY WITH YOUR BASE
Start with a primer that prevents your makeup from slipping. Then go in with a lightweight, creamy concealer that you can build for more coverage. Seal this in with a loose powder that prevents the product from settling in your creases and mist a setting spray to really lock it in place.
HAVE EYE-CONIC APPEAL WITH EYELINERS
You don’t need a third umpire to tell you that smudgy, black eyeliner is no good. These sweat-proof picks make sure you leave as you entered, with sharp, precise wings and well-defined eyes.
GET BOWLED OVER WITH BLUSH
When it comes to a rosy flush, swap your powder formula for a liquid tint or cream blush instead. These will melt into the skin and stay in place even while you sweat buckets during the third umpire’s call.
SCORE BIG WITH THESE LIPSTICKS
Don’t want to risk missing a single ball during a nail-biting finish? These liquid lipsticks will last through both innings without any reapplication.
