Make-Up

With all the talk about getting neat and pretty lately, I'm wondering what's the best make-up for the heat and humidity during the summer at Disney? I usually wear an oil free moistureizer, urban decay eye shadow primer, Revlon color stay eye shadow and eyeliner, tarte blush and I just discovered Revlon's color stay ultimate suede lipstick. So ladies and @mrdisman what do you wear?

Am pretty girly and even touch up make up to give birth:) My WDW face:
City block by Clinque...has a primer and sunblock
Erase by Dermablend...swear by this for under eye circles
Bare Minerals also use as a eye shadow base and has SPF...take this to the park
Lancôme black eyeliner...might not do this, my new one run is leaving a mark on my upper eyelid
Chanel water proof masacar in black...expensive but only use when swimming or the like...take in park
Lancôme bronzer...also use in crease of eye no need for shadow...take in park
Urban Decay lip liner in Gash...take in park
Burt's Bee Lip Balm ...take in park
Also take small hair spray, extra pinch clip, ponies and bobby pins with a good comb...my daughters need these too
Bodycology body spray in a jasmine scent
Glitter for the girls
Powder brush, eye, face and blush brush
All of this fits in a zip lock sandwich bag in our backpack. Seems like more when typed out. I have learned to not bring anything in a tube like concealer or lip stick into the park, to hot. I do a lunch bag because I leave my other makeup in my usual bag in the hotel. I can also see what is in it and grab it when headed to the restroom.
We have another gallon bag with sunblock for the 6 of us, sanitizer and baby wipes, usually the make bag goes there for organization. The gallon bag is for any busted sunblock containers, has not happened in WDW but one did open in our bag at the zoo.
I save the smokey eye, contoured cheeks and false lashes for night out of the park... Even I want to look like a fresh faced Belle and not a scary step sister;)

I just though of some odd beauty type items we pack:
Claisonic, espicially with all of the sunblock on my skin like to make sure it is clean
Peppermint foot balm, feels so nice
Nail brush, our family coined the term Disney Feet from how grimy the kids feet after crocs all day
Conditioning hair mask, the sun and chlorine really dry out my hair
Nail Envy from OPI, have thin brittle nails and use pretty often
C-pap for DH
TGI Hair glue for boys spikes
Freeze and Shine by Paul Mitchell Hair Spray for all
Dep hair gel for DH and girls
Big Sexy Root pump for Me
Morrocann Oil girls and me
Combs, Round Brush, brush
Hair Dryer
Curling Iron
Hair bows for girls
Hair thingys
The good thing is most are travel size and fits into on organizer toiletries bag...except the hair dryer. We could do without alot of the stuff, but out travel bag stays packed until something runs out and we need more. Before each trip I check what is needed. If can't find a travel size, like my Big Sexy Root Pump or hair glue, we make do. We all use same Cetephil soap, Aveeno body lotion and Paul Mitchel conditioner and on vacation we all use the kids Suave Sun and Sport to get the chlorine out our hair.

Waterproof!!
I like Bobbi Brown waterproof gel eyeliners. I have tried others and none work as well as these do. I have also always worn waterproof mascaras. Non-waterproof just always seem to rub and smear on me, even though I have dry skin.
Here's a tip to save a bit of money (put toward that BB eyeliner ;)): L'oreal makes the best mascaras. I have tried every mascara under the sun, including the more expensive Lancome (part of the L'oreal company). Lancome makes good mascara, but they are far more expensive. Unless you need some cutting edge mascara "technology", just buy the L'oreal. The formulas of Lancome make there way down to L'oreal after a period of time. My favorite go to is the Voluminous. B/c being pregnant seems to have destroyed my lashes (never went back to the way they were before pregnancy), I also use Smashbox lash primer.

If you are really wed to some non-waterproof mascara, I also recommend Urban Decay Lingerie and Galoshes. Makes any mascara waterproof.

EDIT: It seems UD has discontunued the L&G!!! The horror! :eek: I hate when that happens! :mad:

I used Smashbox primer for a long time, but lately I have been liking Laura Mercier primers a lot more. I also use the MAC Prep + Prime Eye for any eye shadow. A little stupid to have a separate primer, but i really like it, and it makes my eyelid a uniform color for a base.

I wont even bother with foundation; it just will not stay. And those mineral makeups look horrible on my skin.

I always carry a stick of titanium dioxide sunscreen. Great for lips and nose. and the stick is easy to use. I like Solar Sense.
If you want the one that is the least greasy on your face, I have found it to be the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Liquid Daily Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 70. It comes in a little container and you have to shake it. But it is the least greasy. During normal activities I usually use the Josie Marin Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 40. But that is not enough for being out in the sun all day.

If you need a sunscreen that absolutely will not run into your eyes from sweating, I have found those made by Mission to be the best. I use it when I walk and run outside in the heat. I sweat like crazy and it never ends up in my eyes. It is the stick that I use for this purpose, but I like the spray for body also . Sticks are VERY convenient and much easier to use on my son's face.

Claisonic, espicially with all of the sunblock on my skin like to make sure it is clean

The Clarisonic is an awesome tool for all the time. I travel with a smaller Mia version. It really does an excellent job of cleaning your skin. I LOVE it.

Clinique foundation with sunscreen (15 SPF), eyeliner, and waterproof mascara. Maybe a little bit of blush. I wear more make up at home like eye shadow for work and such but for an amusement park, that's about all that is necessary in my book.

And hair is back into a ponytail. I get up early for rope drops and I would rater dedicate the 15 minutes would take to dry my hair to sleep.

L'oreal face lotion with spf as a base and I have been using BB cream for foundation. It sweats off in the humidity, but at least I looked great a breakfast! My friend sells Arbonne and a lot of the products are great especially the eyeliner and sunscreen! Eye shadow on, but I skip the blush-the FL heat will bring out the red naturally lol!

P.S. I try to get our Photopass and photos early in the day before it all wears off ;)

I don't use foundation in the first place so I'd probably just use a SPF 30 face moisturizer and a light BB cream (Maybelline's BB cream is very light) just so it evens out the skin and I'm pretty sure it has SPF as well. Some eyeliner, a little mascara, and maybe a gloss. I probably wouldn't even re-apply any gloss. My face tends to get "dew-y" and a bit oily so I use Rimmel London's Stay Matte Pressed Powder in Transparent over the BB cream. :) BB creme doesn't really "melt" off either, by the end of the day it kind of just fades away (you can always re-touch for dinner.) If you don't like that caked on feeling you should give it a try.
