Summer Makeup
The mid-summer heat is setting in and while the days are getting shorter, they're also getting hotter! Between humidity and sweat, it's almost impossible to keep your makeup from sliding off and constant reapplication only creates a cakey plastic look. So this week we asked a pro for tips to help beat the summer heat and transition into fall.
Professional makeup artist, Julie Burr, shares her favorite products that hold up in the heat and humidity of an Indian Summer. For over ten years, Julie has worked for Lancome Paris, Laura Mercier, and Bobbi Brown and is currently a freelance artist in the Vancouver and Seattle areas. Thank you Julie!

Bobbi Brown Meltproof Makeup
The whole line is amazing especially the Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner. No drip, no smudge, no scraping the eye with a pencil. It goes on like silk and is definitely the must-have of the Meltproof collection.

Laura Mercier Sequin Eye Colour
Shimmer shadows twinkle in the light making them a beautiful choice for evening events and moonlit nights. Apply Laura Mercier Sequin Eye Colour (my favorite shade is Peacock) with a pat of your finger. It's super easy and long lasting!!

Denim & Rose Face Palette
Bobbi Brown's limited edition Denim & Rose Collection will get you back into your jeans this fall with a face to match. The face palette includes fresh shades for eyes, lips, and cheeks. It's all there!

Philosophy Beach Party 3 in 1
Don't leave the beach behind this summer. Wash it in through fall!

MAC Mineralized Blush Duo
Mineralized Blush Duo by MAC brings a healthy glow to sunkissed faces. You can blend the two shades evenly or go a little heavier on one then the other for a variation of colors that can take you from one season to the next.
