Waterproof Your Entire Makeup Routine with These 7 Moisture-Busting Products
Published Apr 21, 2023
Not trying to throw shade on water, but it can seriously rain on my parade.
Swimming, humidity, unexpected rain showers, you name it—if it’s H2O-based, it’s bound to cause a makeup meltdown. Luckily, good ‘ol agua doesn’t stand a chance against the toughest beauty product around: waterproof makeup.
From foundation to lip color, here are my moisture-resistant picks for a full-face makeup routine that can weather any storm.
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation, $49
Rain or shine, this stay-all-day foundation holds up so you can avoid makeup meltdowns. They don’t call it “Airbrush Flawless” for nothing. The creamy formula withstands water and comfortably hugs skin for a poreless, full coverage finish. Apply a single layer to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and moisturize for up to 24 hours.
Danessa Myricks Beauty Waterproof Cream Palettes, $36
Need waterproof eye shadow, cream contour, and bronzer? Danessa Myricks delivers all of this and more within a compact. Her Beauty Waterproof Cream Palettes come with a variety of water-resistant shades that seamlessly blend over skin for smooth, buildable color.
Use the Essentials Palette to create a flawless contour and matte bronze that won’t budge with water exposure. Or use the shimmer shades within the Fire & Ice palette as a wet-proof shadow and highlighter for a natural-looking sheen.
Hindash Heroline, $26 & Charlotte Tilbury Eye Colour Magic Liner Duo, $32
Sweating, swimming, running for cover in an unexpected storm — whatever happens, these eyeliners stay strong so you can do you. Heroline from Hindash delivers defined, smudge-proof eyes for 24-hours with a fine marker-like tip. If pencil is more your thing, pick Charlotte Tilbury’s Eye Colour Magic Liner to create colorful, eye-enhancing looks that won’t budge. Whether you create subtle lines or dramatic designs, know these liners ensure that your smolder stays put.
Wayne Goss The Waterproof Mascara, $24
Waterproof mascara is my everyday go-to. Not only does it combat mascara lines, it also helps lengthen, maintain your lash curl, and keep strands lifted. With smudge-proof separation, The Waterproof Mascara gives you a falsies feel without clumping. Go ahead and cry tears of joy!
Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat, $25
Give your pout some lip plumping oomph with 6-hour waterproof color. The velvety texture glides on smooth to create crisp lines that keep color in place. The rich formula stays put without drying skin or bleeding for feather-free shades that last.
Skindinavia The Makeup Finishing Spray: Bridal, $29
Make your makeup routine bulletproof by setting it with a breathable spray specifically designed to resist moisture. Skindinavia The Makeup Finishing Spray is great for weddings, but I think this hardworking mist is a must-use for a photo-ready complexion on all special occasions—or even on the daily. After a couple spritzes, the ultra-fine spray creates an invisible barrier that holds all day long without creasing, fading, smudging, or settling into fine lines.
