is your skin oily or dry? Make sure your skin is evenly balanced with moisturiser or powder. Try to stay out of heat once your makeup is put on. Also try some of the name brands long lasting makeup. Clinique has always been good to me! Good Luck!:)

As said before you have to buy makeup that coincides with your skin type. I have really oily skin so I use the oil free Revlon ColorStay. It is a liquid foundation but provide remarkable coverage. If they ever stop making it I will be screwed. I still have to do some touch up through out the day but it will last for about 6 hours before I have to. Also, use a pressed powder over the liquid foundation and I use these Clean And Clear oil blotter sheets to obsord the excess oil. It will take off the oil without moving the makeup.

After you have all of your makeup on take a washcloth and soak it in hot water then ring it out really well. Dab the hot cloth onto your face and hold it there for a couple seconds. DON'T RUB IT, just dab and hold it there. This is supposed to set the makeup and make it last longer. It works for me! Also they have certain powders that you could use that keep the makeup on. Good luck!!

Face Setting Spray
Other great products at the link below.
If that is too expensive you can go to any place that specifically sells makeup and get water spray. Like Evian. I use that.

There's a product called Photo Finish by Smashbox cosmetics that keeps your make-up on your face. Also, mosturize first, then put on your foundation, and dust with powder. The powder sets the make-up!
You can also get products, like Mary Kay's Lip ?protection?, that keeps your lipstick on longer. There's also a product for eye make-up.
Good Luck!

A great foundation that lasts is by NARS. Every single other brand comes off of me. Another great product is bobby brown primer called face protector. That makes my skin feel great as well as my foundation stay. For eyeliner a great brand is lorac. You can find all of these products at sephora.

Use AVON makeup. That stays on me all day. Go to www.youravon.com/amancini to check out brochures. Also try adding powder after you apply your makeup. Take care and good luck. I know this heat kills our makeup.

For eyeshadow:
after you apply your eyeshadow, take a tissue, and apply a little powder over the tissue. This will go through the tissue and help it last longer.
for lipstick:
put on a layer of lip liner, then lipstick then take a tissue and apply powder over the tissue. this will make the lipstick last longer. then apply another layer of lipstick, then gloss.
hope this helps!

Dust some loose powder on over your foundation and concealer to set it and make it last longer.
Use waterproof mascara to prevent it from smudging or running.
Carry blotting papers in your purse to dab away oil and prevent shine and running/smudging.

well, i just graduated and my friends and i were discussing this...so someone said that you could just spray hairspray on your face and it would make the makeup last longer. i tried it and it worked for me. me face didnt even feel sticky. or at least if it did, i didnt notice it. so yeah. thats my suggestion.
