Summertime! It’s time to hit the pool! Don’t ever want to take lovely pictures at the beach, but are afraid to look like you have makeup leaking off your face? Now with new innovations in cosmetics, there are some products that you can use (and affordable!) without worrying about your makeup running!
E.L.F’s Makeup Lock & Seal, $3
Can you believe that this only costs $3? You can add it to almost any makeup product you have, & it makes it waterproof!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brown Primer, $21
Yes, this is meant for brows, but with this wax pencil you literally could put over your eyeliner, or other powders to make it waterproof & last!
Benefit Cosmetics They’re Real Push Up Eyeliner, $12
This eyeliner, is actually travel sized. Small, but packs a powerful punch. Don’t have to worry about runny eyeliner with this one!
Mehron Mixing Liquid, $10
Ah, this is something for the professional makeup artists. But, that doesn’t mean you can’t get your hands on it! If you would like to make your blush / eye shadow waterproof, use a knife to scrape off some of the powder onto a clean plate. Add a bit of this mixing liquid to the powder, & then use a concealer brush to apply. Viola! Waterproof makeup! And still comes off easily with soap & water!
Colour Pop’s Ultra Matte Lip, $6 each
I’ve written about Color Pop before, started by 2 girls in LA, their products have become a cult favorite among beauty magazines & bloggers! And these matte lip shades come in a wide variety of different shades!
Sephora Collection’s Cream Lip Stain, $14
I actually have this! Goes on creamy, dries like a lip stain & lasts all day! And comes in 14 different colors!
Makeup Forever’s Aqua Matic Cream Eye Shadow, $22
I know what you’re probably thinking: $22 is a lot for 1 eye shadow. And it is! The great thing about this pencil is that you can use it as an eyeliner as well! Get more bang for your buck! And it comes in 15 different shades!
NYC Colors City Proof 24 Hour Waterproof Mascara, $4
This drugstore brand has a waterproof mascara that’s only $4? Amazing!
Most people love to go to the pool / beach when the weather is nice, & who doesn’t like to take pictures? Now you know which ones will last the longest, so you can be picture ready for the water!
