Not too much yet. I do have some days where its just too hot to want to wear any makeup. Soon, I'll just be wearing bb creams,  mascara and brows though. I have the za one and an it cosmetics one waiting for those hot days.

My foundation/concealer coverage always reduces in summer as being able to wear fake tan colour on my face helps even out my skin tone easier.

I was thinking about something along these lines the other day though! There's always this huge push towards wearing more dewy, glowy makeup once summer hits and I don't understand why lol I would've thought most people need MORE oil control in the warmer weather, aka needing to set your makeup using powders. Well, I do at least. Much confuse.

We have had a few hot days lately. I ditch the foundation and eyeliner and just stick too cc cream and mascara. I plan to lighten my hair up this summer. It has been black for a long time so will be interesting :-)

I've swapped my night cream for an oil-control overnight gel and I've stared using a mattifying / oil control primer (I can get away with a 'normal' primer under my foundation in winter). Other than that, there's not much that I change in summer wrt my make-up & skincare. 

Oh, and I've brought my epilator out of hibernation!

sarah for me personally my skin goes quite nice in summer and fighting the heat glow is a losing battle, so i work with it.

IMO heavily mattified skin in summer looks fake and odd, especially on me, so i don't go there

Lately no make up. I'm growing my uneven brows out. Getting them threaded soon. I haven't been wearing make up much . I'm still stuck in my nude make up comfort zone.

Lighter skincare products as my skin can get quite oily in summer, and lighter lip colours.

The only thing I really change is adding fake tan to my beauty routine.
More colour on my eyes but otherwise, nothing. I stay away from the sun as much as possible due to being allergic to sunlight.

Make up wise nothing really changes as I wear whatever look I want year round. Skincare wise I use more clay/mud masks stuff like that as my skin gets more oily. During winter I do more peels and use heavier hydrating skincare like the thicker facial oils and any thicker moisturizers I have I use them during winter. Oh and I paint my toenails in summer because it's finally warm enough for me to take my socks off that I wear most of the year.
