Pool Party Approved Waterproof Makeup:
When you’re attending a poolside party, you might not be focusing on creating that perfect cut-crease eyeshadow look or showing off your favorite new matte lipstick. You’re looking for products that will give you a natural, beautiful complexion that will stick with you through every cannonball and game of chicken.Sun Protection:
The obvious first step would be to use a hydrating sunscreen. This one from Avene is perfect for your pool party needs because it’s lightweight and has up to 80 minutes of water resistance. It protects the skin with broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, and boasts additional antioxidants and nutrients to hydrate and protect. This non-greasy, sheer formula also includes the brand’s patented Thermal Spring Water to keep you hydrated for up to 24 hours.
Natural Makeup:
If you’re planning on swimming at all, you likely want your makeup to stay as simple as possible. Our favorite product for keeping our makeup simple, but ready for any swimming is the Eyeko Beach Waterproof Mascara. This mascara will not only hold on through all your water adventures, but it will also nourish and strengthen your lashes. The formula is infused with Korean skin care technology to create dramatic volume while giving your lashes the nourishment they need.

For those days when you aren’t planning on swimming, but you will be outside perusing your local farmer’s market or spending the day taking in your city’s arts festival, you need a look that will last. We’ve found the best products that don’t melt off your face from noon to night.The Perfect Contour:
