Living in KZN can be a real challenge for makeup lovers. The humidity is no joke, and it's like the rain is just waiting for you to leave the house before it pours down. 

It seems that Stacey Norman has (almost) cracked the code for a foolproof all-weather makeup routine – or at least the foundation of one.

First things first: sunscreen is non-negotiable. Not just any sunscreen, but a quick-absorbing one that doubles as a primer.

“ Even in winter, the struggle bus is real. What I’ve learnt is that a really good sunscreen is essential because, honestly, we should all be wearing it all the time," says Stacey.

Next, it’s all about lightweight, waterproof coverage. A tinted moisturiser or tinted sunscreen works wonders, and setting powder is a must.

“I'm a very sweaty girl. I don't glow – I just straight-up sweat. Depending on the time of day, the humidity, or even which way the wind is blowing, maybe my forehead will stay intact. Maybe my nose, my upper lip, or just under my chin. By the end of the day, it’s kind of just… disintegrated," Stacey admits.

Let’s be real – no makeup routine can fully conquer KZN’s unpredictable weather. So, Stacey’s ultimate advice?

“A foolproof makeup look for all weather is to just sunscreen it and pray. Follow me for more life hacks,” she concludes.
