Summer makeup - humidity

Ok, so I have been using Physician's Formula mineral makeup and it goes on pretty light and last thru the day - on a normal day. But what do you do on very humid days? I feel like my makeup just clings to me. Any ideas? I don't like to be totally makeup free.

I just cover problem spots, put on mascara and gloss and call it a day. I hate make up in the summer!

I def lighten the makeup in the summer. I use less foundation (bare minerals), bronzer, blistex/gloss and eye shadow. that's about it. if I am going "out" I add eyeliner & mascara

I've always found Revlon's Colorstay line to be great in high humidity conditions.

Lately I've been using a light mosturizer and Neutrogena's Mineral Sheers (in Bronzer) as a base/foundation. I tried Physician's Formula, but I prefer the Neutrogena line, especially the packaging (it's fits nicely in a purse for touch-ups.)

And you'd think a creme shadow wouldn't work well in high humidity, but Laura Mercier's Metallic creme shadows are awesome! They never crease on me!! And I like the tube packaging, which makes the creme easier to get to as opposed to the Nars creme shadows which can be a pain in the butt when you start to run low.

I just use PF mineral wear talc free pressed. I also have the loose now. That's it. I touch up during the day....just with a powder puff. I get greasy, too. A mist helps. I use Burt's Bees Grapefruit Complexion Mist. You can spray it over makeup.
