It was around February that my weekly screen time reports started to scare me. When the work days were long, the days cold, and alone time scarce, I started staying up until the late-night hours gave way to early morning—watching the lives of others through a ceramic glass screen and wishing mine felt a little more… fun.

With 20/20 hindsight, I can see that this was a bout of seasonal depression fueled by a mild social media addiction. This is also precisely why I swore that when the temperatures rose and my friends came out of seasonal hibernation, I would make every effort to create memories that live in my mind rather than my social feed. Now that we’ve reached August, I’m proud to say that I’ve achieved this goal—seizing every opportunity to twirl on the dance floor, sip wine under humid stars, and traipse through ancient French coastal towns—all without worrying about my makeup when a friend whips out her phone for a candid. Not because I’m not wearing it (I love playing with the stuff too much), but because I’ve edited my collection down to a few long-wearing mainstays that never crack under sweaty pressure.

You, too, should worry less about the way you look in a photo, to onlookers, or in your phone’s front camera when you step outside this summer. Embrace these last few weeks of laid-back August bliss with certainty, knowing your glam is staying how it looked when you left the house. So go ahead—give that kiss on the cheek, eat the pasta, and dab your brow. These formulas are here to stay.
