places like Thailand Singapore and
Brazil are sometimes so humid makeup can
feel like it's melting off your face so
in this video I'm going to show you how
to waterproof your makeup so let's
unleash your inner mermaid I spent the
entire day in the pool testing this
makeup look out and let me tell you it's
humidity and waterproof meaning you can
jump in the water and your makeup will
still be flawless first step to
waterproofing your makeup prime your
face I'm using benefit stay flawless
15-hour primer this will help control
oil and the primer will help the makeup
grab onto something so it stays on
longer this is by far the most unique
foundation I found this Kevyn Aucoin
sensual silk enhancer not only covers
everything I can think of but it's
potent a little goes a long way dab a
little on your face because less is more
you want to be selective in what you're
trying to conceal because the last thing
you want is to cake up your face your
skin still needs to breathe alright time
for brows try and find a brow pencil
that contains wax if you really need
something that even Ariel use this
makeup forever waterproof eye brow
corrector that's a long name use a brush
to fill in any empty spaces and when it
dries we'll stay on foot and won't budge
wax-based brow products will stay on
longer even with moisture and whatever
brow product that you have left over you
can use this as contour I'm going to run
this along the sides of my nose to
create an illusion of a taller nose
cool now it's time for I make up if
you're planning on wearing a lot of
eyeshadow use an eye primer your
eyeshadow will thank you later not only
will this prevent creasing on the lids
but your eyeshadow pigment can now grip
onto your lids better if you're going to
use an eyeliner stick with one that has
a waterproof formula waterproof pencils
like Urban Decay Make Up For Ever and
NYX contains wax based ingredients like
Saracen and microcrystalline wax waxes
are insoluble to water making it water
resistant which is why a lot of
waterproof eyeliners contain wax and if
you're looking for a vegan option look
for an eyeliner that's made out of
synthetic wax waterproof gel or cream
based eyeliner can double up as eye
shadow all you need is a blending brush
to buff it in place however if you
prefer your powder eye makeup you want
to make sure that your lids are primed
waterproof liquid liners can usually
outlast all other eyeliners this
eyeliner that I'm using here was made in
Japan and trust me they know a little
somethin something about water provide
liners as you can see my eyes are
bloodshot red because I spent the entire
day swimming in the pool testing out
different makeup products to see which
ones are better now if you don't like
using liquid eyeliner try coating this
eyeliner sealer over your makeup this
will seal and protect your eyeliner and
prevent smudging and fading all right
you guys know this step curl to prep
your lashes and apply waterproof mascara
a lot of waterproof mascaras contain wax
which can help hold a curl longer and
better I don't know about you but I am
ready for a water balloon fight and if
you can't say no to fake lashes I
recommend using a waterproof lash
adhesive one that's odor and latex cream
like this one by kiss just apply a thin
strip on the top part of the lashes and
place them as close to the lash line as
possible I used to live in Florida and
it was so humid you could practically
drink the air which means we need our
makeup to be bulletproof and from here
just build up your lashes
just wait for it to dry and you should
be good to go all right so if you need
some color on your cheeks look for one
that can stand up to water like this
cargo water-resistant blush don't overdo
it on blush because you don't want to
look like you've been cooked your face
is going to get red anyways because of
the Sun and if you're looking for a more
natural finish try Benetint lip and
cheek stain you don't need much just a
little bit and dab on your cheeks
quickly blend before it dries protect
your lips with SPF lip balm or lip gloss
I would avoid lip gloss if you're
soaking up in the Sun stick with mineral
powder makeup because most of them are
water-resistant but if you're going to
be by the pool or Beach don't really
need face powder because your skin
should look dewy finally drumroll the
last step a setting spray this is like a
top coat on your face that is seal
everything in perfect now your makeup is
waterproof humidity proof hex
practically bulletproof all right you
guys enjoy the beach pool in humid
weather hey at least it's good for your
skin
