We’re here to bring you some seriously shocking news — YES, it gets hot and humid in Disney World in the summer. 
Okay, okay, maybe that’s not shocking news at all, but it is an important thing to think about when planning your trip.
That Florida sunshine ain’t no joke
We’re constantly telling you about the importance of staying hydrated in the parks, as well as making sure you know about getting free water, how useful cooling towels and misting fans can be, and more. But there’s another thing you’ll want to consider. That makeup you normally use might totally MELT off your face in the Florida sun (yes, it’s THAT hot). But we can help.
We go to Disney World every day, and these are our TOP product recommendations for sweat-proof makeup that’ll work even on those SUPER hot Florida days.

Want your eyes to look great in your photos, even if you woke up at the break of dawn to rope drop? You NEED this eye balm that will make you look like you’re well-rested, even when you’re not. It has an “energizing effect” and is portable too so you can reapply as needed.

Part of your makeup routine might involve some great mascara. But at Disney World, you need mascara that’ll give your lashes volume but won’t sweat off (so you don’t end up looking like Rocket Raccoon at the end of the day). This one from Maybelline is waterproof, so it can even survive those tears that might fall from your eyes when watching the Happily Ever After fireworks.

Primer can be a helpful tool for hot summer days to help your makeup go on nice and smoothly, and also keep your makeup in place all day. This one even has some ingredients to try and boost your skin’s hydration.

A good setting spray, like this one by Urban Decay, can also help keep your makeup from sliding off your face. This is an award-winning spray that is meant to keep your makeup looking fresh for 16(!!) hours and even features a patented Temperature Control Technology to lower the temperature of makeup and help “lock in your look.”
Buy the L’Oreal Voluminous Lash Boosting Conditioning Primer

You may be used to buying primer for your face to use before putting on makeup, but don’t forget about those lashes too! Products like this conditioning primer can not only help your lashes pop even MORE — building volume and length, but they can also help your mascara last even longer.

Do your eyebrows need a little more support? Well, this eyebrow wax can help! It can help you achieve the “soap brows” trend, lift & sculpt your browns, and will even condition and nourish your brow hairs. Talk about a tool that does it all.
Buy the Colourpop Blush Stix

Keep your cheeks looking rosy all day with these blush stix from ColourPop. This blush is nice and hydrating, meaning the color won’t flake like some powders do. Plus, it’s buildable so you can apply it lightly or keep going in for more when you want a dramatic look.
Get the Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink Longwear No-Budge Liquid Lipcolor

Lipstick is often one of the FIRST things to fade when you’re facing a long day at the parks, but it doesn’t have to be that way. This lip color goes on and STAYS on, delivering up to 16-hour wear with a Color Lock formula.
Buy the NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation

Of course, you’ll also need a long-lasting foundation. This one from NARS is a good option because it is long-wearing, breathable, and has a natural finish. Plus, it is resistant to transfer and sweat!
