Summer Makeup: Waterproof Liners
By Kia Darby • July 1st, 2008The summer heat is here and our makeup can definitely feel it! The summer season can bring out the Bronze Goddess in some of us while others scream “I’m melting!” One of my favorite tips that will last your makeup through the heat and humidity is fun and simple for the summer!
Don’t know how to keep your shadow from melting? Check out L’Oreal’s De-crease. Be sure to use the waterproof version of your favorite mascara to keep that in place. To give that inner rim color longevity, it’s important to use waterproof liners. Here are some of my suggestions:
Makeup Forever Aqua Eyes, $16
Try shades: Shimmering Plum 4L (soft plum sheen) and Bronze Green 5L (golden olive sheen).
Great for everyday looks!
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil, $16
Try shade Lucky (deep copper)
Day time or weekend fun!
Clarins Waterproof Eye Pencil, $22
Try shade 04 Turquoise
Kick this look into night time fun!
Give these liners a try! Enjoy your summer with a splash of colourful makeup!

I am a HUGE fan of Urban Decay’s 24/7 Eyeliners. My favorite shades are bourbon and gunmetal. Glide on smoothly and stay on.
Love the Urban Decay liners. Rimmel also makes some great and colourful liners that work and are on the cheap side.
