We find the idea of wearing strong make-up in summer quite uncomfortable. Don’t you agree? The heat already makes one sweaty and sticky, over that if one wears a sticky lipgloss or liquid lipstick, I can’t imagine the day going smoothly for that person. So, the secret of putting on make-up in the scorching heat is keeping it light toned and non-glossy. Additionally, matte finish to one’s make-up adds an appeal of natural freshness which is highly important during summers. We have found some of the best matte lipsticks brands which are also easy on the pocket.
