I’m a make-up artist and my hack will stop your sunglasses from rubbing your foundation off your nose for good

WHILE the sun may not be shining today, it won’t be long before our sunglasses become a daily essential.

And although they are both stylish and practical they come with that all too familiar beauty frustration: the dreaded marks they leave on your nose.

But fear not, Revolution Beauty makeup artist Mel Trierweiler shares her top tips for avoiding sunglasses marks this summer.

Mel comments, “There is nothing more frustrating than when your sunglasses leave marks on either side of your nose. 

“However, the solution to stop this from happening might be sitting in your makeup bag already.” 

She recommends  applying a bit of loose powder to the bridge of your nose and the inner frame of your sunglasses. 

This creates a barrier, absorbs excess oil, and keeps your make-up from transferring. 

Mel continues: “To avoid those frustrating sunglasses marks a cosmetic baking powder is a great choice. 

“It’s easy to apply, and can be tapped directly onto your sunglasses frame and the bridge of your nose. 

“If you’re on the move, using a powder puff or beauty blender makes reapplying simple - no need to use your hands. 

“It is also important to clean your sunglasses every morning, as leftover oils can break down your makeup and cause marks.” 

Mel also recommends applying a setting spray to your beauty blender before dipping into the loose setting powder, as this can add extra grip and a long-lasting hold. 

“It instantly locks your look in place and leaves your complexion with a shine-free finish,” she says.
