Cosme

Waterproof cosmetics are just what they say they are - cosmetics that are unaffected by water. Waterproof makeup is formulated with the same ingredients as traditional cosmetics, only with an added ingredient that makes it resistant to moisture. Waterproof makeup is very convenient because it helps keep makeup looking fresh and clean. Because of its unique qualities, water-resistant makeup is often used for special occasions like weddings, anniversaries, birthdays or maybe even prom night.This waterproof makeup is specially designed to not run, smear, or come off when wet. This is a great benefit when living in areas with humidity or where makeup has a tendency of running. This waterproof type makeup is generally chosen by actresses, athletes, and women when going on holiday, as they can go for a quick dip in the pool without worrying about their makeup running.

There are some women who may choose to go with waterproof everyday because of their profession. Wearing water proof, smudge proof or sweat proof cosmetics means that you’ll look great all day or all night. Waterproof cosmetics should not be used by women suffering from eyelid dermatitis. Eyelid dermatitis is an allergic reaction to compounds that come into contact with the skin.

Waterproof Makeup Tips

1. Use face powder in place of foundation to avoid the mess if caught in rain. Don’t use concealer during the monsoon and instead use the foundation. Touch up the dark circles around the eyes with a dab of foundation. Always go for a water-resistant foundation which can survive the rain. Do not apply makeup around the hairline as the hair can become wet in rain and ruin your makeup.

2. Lip Colours: CON — They can dry out your lips. PRO — There are alternatives. Simple lip glosses and stains are a great alternative to waterproof lipsticks. The waxiness from a gloss will stay put if you don’t rub it and a stain (usually rose water-based) is a natural stain that won’t harm your skin.

3. The waterproof makeup helps you be confident that nothing, including weather, perspiration or any contact with water will affect your makeup.

4. In order to make a waterproof foundation usually oil base is used and the oils used for this purpose are ‘extremely light’.

5. Eye Shadows: Waterproof eye shadow means not having to reapply partway through an evening at a hot, crowded club, and since those places never have decent mirrors, you’d better plan to go home with the same makeup you wore in. Many women prefer cream eyeliner and shadow because it goes on more smoothly, but you can also set it more securely with powder.

6. Choosing Mascara Colors: There is wide variety of colors that you choose from when it comes to waterproof mascaras. A good choice would be the latest colored high impact mascaras which make a bold fashion statement. For a much more natural look you should always match the color of your mascara with that of your hair.

When we need Waterproof makeup?

1. When we are exposed to excessive moisture or heat, your eye makeup is under threat.

2. The weather will certainly affect the staying power of your eye makeup.

3. Rain, humidity and dry heat are all extreme climatic conditions which will really challenge the staying power of even the highest quality waterproof mascara.
