The Best Waterproof Makeup Products for the First Snow
Snow shouldn't equal runny mascara.
OK, so don't get mad, but we kind of love the first snow of the season. The pretty flakes, the dusting of snow on the sidewalk, breaking out the puffer coat and mittens—so picturesque. But, as much as we love waking up to a blanket of snow, we really hate what it does to our makeup. Runny mascara and foundation that is no more are very unwelcome results of snow. Luckily, we rounded up some stellar waterproof makeup to make these issues a thing of the past.
Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara ($23)
There's a reason this mascara earned a Reviewers' Choice Award. It really lasts. The hourglass-shaped brush mixed with the waterproof volumizing formula gives thick, long, curled lashes that won't budge—even when snow flakes land on them.
Kat Von D Lock-It Foundation ($35)
Foundation is the base of any makeup look, so when it starts to run or roll, it can really ruin everything. This formula from Kat Von D contains silicone elastomers and silicone esters to give a matte coverage that stays put, doesn't transfer, and yes, can withstand the snow.
Lancôme EFFACERNES Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer ($31)
You turn to concealer to hide unwanted dark circles, but what happens when your concealer isn't as waterproof as you had hoped? Let's just say running, raccoon eyes are pretty much just as bad as dark circles. To combat this, opt for a waterproof concealer formula that's made to withstand the elements.
YSL Du Regard Waterproof High Impact 16-Hour Wear Color Eye Pencil ($30)
You spent all morning perfecting that cat eye, so you better make darn sure it lasts through your morning commute. This pencil from YSL boasts big color and 16 hours of wear. Holy cat eye!
Wander Beauty Secret Weapon Multitasking Pencil ($22)
This do-it-all pencil is a miracle worker for the eyes, lips, and brows. Use the nourishing formula to highlight your brow, line your lips, and give a matte, velvety finish. Your move, Jack Frost.
MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Rouge Liquid Lipstick ($24)
It's one thing to have transfer-proof lipstick, but to also have lipstick that can weather the (snow) storm is a very beautiful thing. This liquid lipstick formula from MAKE UP FOR EVER is opaque, non-sticky, and matte, and you guessed it, waterproof.
