Summer season is almost here and that means one major concern for all makeup girlies, humidity-induced sweat in a tropical country like India. Read ahead for our Top 50 sweat-proof makeup, hair, and skin recommendations for the summer season.
In This Story:
Taylor Swift, rightfully calls summer cruel, because of the way the heat gets the best of us. And if you live in India, don’t even talk about the sweat-inducing humidity that melts even the thickest sunscreen, makeup, and mists. The climate is getting hotter, so your makeup needs to be stronger, one that doesn’t budge as the harsh UV rays raise the temperature. Keep your hair frizz-free and skin dewy, with sweat-proof essentials recommended by our Beauty Editors.
Sweat-Proof Sunscreens
Are you a social butterfly whose calendar is packed even during the summers? Then you need a strong sunscreen that doesn’t budge when you break sweat. With SPF 50+ and water-resistant formulations, you can keep your makeup intact with our recommended sweat-proof sunscreens. Whether you are looking to reapply or prep your skin, these sunscreens are going to be by your side like the inseparable childhood bestie you made when you were both five.

Sweat-Proof Foundation
A sweat-proof makeup calls for a lightweight base, ultra-absorbent formulation that offers a high-coverage, smooth, and matte finish. When the cakey foundation melts, it looks cracked and clumpy and totally not the hot girl summer vibe.
