"Skip thick foundations and save your cream lipsticks for fall," says Los Angeles makeup artist Napoleon Perdis. Makeup with a lighter texture -- tinted moisturizer, cheek stain, bronzing gel, and lip gloss -- will wear better in the heat and keep you looking fresh.

Apply a thin layer to your skin, lids, even lips, so your tinted moisturizer, eyeshadow, and lip color don't move.
