5 ways to make your makeup last all day

There’s nothing worse than spending an hour on your makeup, only to have it slipping and sliding around your face an hour later. Even if you don’t have an oily skin type, something as simple as a change of season can trigger your skin to produce excess oil, which can shorten the lifespan of your makeup.

Click through the gallery to reveal five ways to make sure your makeup actually lasts all day.


Choose the right primer

If you want your makeup to last, you need a makeup primer. A primer will create a smooth surface on top of your moisturiser that gives your foundation something to cling onto.

Long-wear foundation

It might seem like a no brainer, but if you need your makeup to stay put all day you need a formula that works as hard as you do. Look for a long-wearing formula that promises at least 8 hours of wear.

Powder is a must

Even if you have dry skin, a light dusting of translucent powder binds all of your liquid and cream products together, helping it all stay put. Use a fluffy powder brush and focus the product on the centre of your face.

Always use a setting spray

Setting-spray is non negotiable if you want your makeup to really last all day. A quick spritz after you’ve finished applying your makeup will keep everything in place for hours.

Blotting Papers are your friend

Adding more makeup throughout the day causes product build up, which will leave you looking cakey. If you have an oily t-zone, blotting papers will soak up any excess oil and leave your complexion looking fresh.
