Question: Good waterproof makeup?

(Posted by: peaceandlove<3 on 2009-11-29 12:09:45)

I'm starting swimming in gym soon. I usually wear a lot of concealer, mascara, liquid eyeliner, and eyeshadow. I can live without eyeshadow, but I'd prefer to keep my concealer, mascara, and eyeliner on. Can anyone give me the names of some inexpensive waterproof concealers, mascaras, and liquid eyeliners? They have to be very good since I'd be in water for a good hour.

I like Maybelline Great Last Waterproof Mascara, but don't apply too much of any waterproof mascara or it will clump on you. Wet N Wild makes a waterproof liquid eyeliner and it's like $4. Any waterproof eye makeup will need to be removed with an eye makeup remover- as regular soap won't take it off. Makeup Forever has an AMAZING foundation called Matt Velvet+ that is unlike anything on the market. It's pricey at $50 from Sephora, but no other makeup can touch what this foundation does. It feels like NOTHING is on your skin. It is so light, yet provides full coverage that doubles as a concealer, looks super natural, and is water resistant!!!!!!!! Avoid touching or rubbing your face in the water for best results. I use a Sonia Kashuk Synthetic Flat Top Blush Brush from Target to apply it. It's the best foundation brush. I know the foundation is expensive, but it will deliver the results you want! The only drugstore brand that I would recommend is Revlon Colorstay for Dry Skin- but it is very thick, so apply it with a damp makeup sponge and set with your favorite Physicians Formula powder (they look the most natural and work the best) using a fluffy brush. Since your skin will be more dry from the chlorine in the pool, use OLAY Gentle Foaming Face Wash- it's incredible!!!

Well.. lash blast water proof mascara is good. But i really dont think your going to find concealer and eyeliner that will stay on your face while your swimming for an hour. I think you will just have to wear water proof mascara , then apply your other makeup after gym.
