Makeup That Lasts–During the summer, there’s nothing worse than getting sweaty while wearing a face full of makeup. So how do you get your makeup to last all day while minimizing shine? A finishing veil is the way to go. Just use a large finishing brush and apply after you have perfected your makeup as the last touch to your face. Not only should a good finishing veil set your foundation, but it should also reduce shine so you can use it even when you go foundation-free. Control your shine and get your makeup to last all day with these 5 finishing veils.
