  • Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate: Keep your skin hydrated with a lightweight moisturizer. This will help prevent your makeup from melting.

Focus on the Eyes

  • Lash love: opt for a Lengthening mascara to enhance your lashes without weighing them down. Thankfully, Telan Cosmetics has a lengthening mascara and dual tip eyeliner with jet black pigment to enhance your lashes and define your eyes without weighing them down.
