If you can't stand the heat.. invest in some new cosmetics!

Fed up of looking more beach fade than beach babe? Keep your cool this summer and let SS11's sweat/water/sun-proof goodies keep you looking hot.

The packing list..

1. Waterproof eyeliner - Beat the budge with Benefit's new girl on the block, BADgal Liner Waterproof. The rich, creamy formula is super-easy to apply and means less time in front of the mirror and more time in the sun. We like. Choose from Espresso, Charcoal or Black (we're keeping ours espresso for a more natural look). £14 at Benefit Boutiques or www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk 
2. Bronzer with SPF - Smudge onto bare skin for a sun-kissed glow that strikes the perfect balance between plastered and pasty. Lancome Star Bronzer Mineral Mat SPF15 ticks all the boxes, and launches in June. Find yours for £32 at Boots
3. Foundation with SPF -  Chanel's Vitalumiere Satin Smoothing Fluid Makeup SPF15 is ultra-hydrating, provides high UV protection, and is the perfect remedy for pasty sun-cream face syndrome. £31.66 at Boots.
4. Waterproof mascara - Keep your peepers perky with a coat of L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Waterproof and protect against the dreaded panda eyes. £11.22 at Boots
5. Lipgloss with SPF  - Pump up the gloss factor and let you lips do the talking. Clinique's Long Last Glosswear SPF15 is a non-sticky, highly pigmented lip-shield that makes achieving the perfect pout a doddle. £14 at Clinique counters 
6. Long Lasting Lipstick – Estee Lauder’s Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick does exactly what it says on the tin, providing excellent colour payoff and maximum staying power - we're predicting this goodie will last longer than you will.. From £17, at Estee Lauder counters

With this secret stash of beach-savvy tools, sun-care need not be a chore, and your skin will thank you for it!
