how to be wilt-proof in the summer heat


Well, I'm back home from New York, but not without avoiding the dreaded Laguardia delays (after three hours of sitting on the tarmac, my flight was cancelled because of stormy weather and I had to stay overnight and fly out this morning). But on the whole, my trip was fabulous (though super-short) and I got to check out many of the lovely beauty boutiques I'd had my eye on for a while, such as Space NK and Red Flower and fashion haunts like Opening Ceremony and Sigerson Morrison. Of course, trudging through the hot-box of a city while still trying to look like a fresh flower is no mean feat. How did I do it? My lovely travel companion Melissa wondered how I got my makeup to stay put through the humid-soup and I revealed my secret, which actually surprised even me: Face Atelier's Ultra Foundation. I've mentioned this silicone-based product before, but had never put it through such a rigorous melt-test, and it held up beautifully: my skin, though it looked a bit sheeny from the humidity, still looked flawless, with no makeup slip-and-slide to speak of. That's just one more reason to try this stuff. If it can survive New York, it can survive anything.
