A reliable waterproof mascara is essential during summertime. And when it comes to mascara, Benefit are the reigning champs. Infused with a rich black, long-lasting formula, the Badgal Bang Waterproof Mascara promises not to smudge, flake or weigh your lashes down. The result? Full, feathery lashes made for the ‘90s smudged eye revival. 

Wondering how to make your makeup last? Laura Mercier’s Translucent Loose Setting Powder is an undeniable classic. A mainstay in pretty much every pro-makeup artist’s beauty bag, this setting powder keeps makeup from moving or fading throughout the day. For a base that won’t budge, pay special attention to your t-zone to reduce oil and shine. 

Looking for an eyeliner that won’t smudge or transfer? We’ve got you covered. Meet Morphe’s Make It Big Brush Tip Liquid Liner – a precise, brush-tip liner infused with a smudge-proof, water-resistant formula. Easy to apply with mega-rich colour and long-lasting wear – what more could you want? 

Do you need a primer for eyeshadow? The answer is yes. There’s nothing worse than spending time and effort perfecting your eyeshadow, only to realise that halfway into your day it’s all come off. Luckily, Benefit’s Stay Don’t Stray Primer is on standby. The dual-action formula can be applied to both the eyelids and the under-eye area, preventing colour from fading and concealer from creasing. The dream.
