NEW DELHI: Using the right makeup products during summer can be a tedious task for women, but keeping some factors in mind can help.

Makeup artist Rishab Khanna, who has styled some of the prominent Bollywood faces including Kajol, Karishma Kapoor and Neha Dhupia, suggests some quick tips:

1. Primer helps hold the foundation better

Wear a primer after moisturising your face and before foundation. This extra step will hold your foundation better and for a prolonged time.

2. Tinted moisturiser with SPF will do wonders for your skin

Instead of foundation, use tinted moisturiser that has SPF in it. This will make you feel light on the face while it is hot and steamy outside and protect you from the sun.

3. Ditch lipstick for lip tints

Instead of a thick layer of lipstick, use bright and fresh colours on your lips. Use bright coloured tinted lip balms and lip tints. These will add colour to your face.

4. Go light on the blush

Try a subtle tint for your cheeks and avoid heavy cakey blush. If you love bronze, use bronzer on high points of your face to get a sun-kissed look.

5. Waterproof mascara is a lifesaver

For eyes, wear a gel liner with water proof mascara so that it stays in place even if you sweat. You can dab some powder eye-shadow with an angular brush on top of the liner to make it stay intact for long.

6. Opt for light foundation

Use a light foundation for your neck and shoulders so that it does look different from your face. Keep it light and always use a SPF sunscreen.
