Winter is coming, which means it's time to update your makeup routine. 

Between crisp winds, chilly rain, and sometimes even snow, you need to use the most long-lasting products if you want to weatherproof your makeup.

It all starts with good skin prep. Begin with a moisturizer, like The Outset's barrier-strengthening one, to treat the dry patches and flakiness that are common during the dry winter months.

After applying foundation and concealer, set your makeup by pressing a loose or waterproof pressed powder (the one we found from Moira Cosmetics is just $14) using a powder puff. Top it off with a few spritzes of setting spray to seal everything in.

In terms of eyeshadow, a good eye primer will lock in shadows and prevent them from creasing and smudging. Opt for lip liner and blush stains from Sacheu Beauty for long-wear rosy cheeks and a defined pout.
