Olga Romanova, Sergey Naumov, Alexandra Kirienko and other makeup artists talked about the best waterproof products for eyes, lips and eyebrows.

The choice of Andrey Shilkov

Foundation fluid The Soft Fluid Long Wear Foundation SPF20, La Mer

“You can apply it with a brush or a Beautyblender sponge for a thin, natural finish, ideal for a natural and long-lasting make-up. The product cares for the skin - after a few weeks of constant use you will see it yourself."

Primer Prep + Prime Skin Base Visage, MAC

“Using the primers of this line, you can erase a huge number of problems from your life: do not constantly touch up your makeup, do not think if the eyeshadow has rolled down on your eyelids, if your lips are dry … The product from MAC works - tested. Pay special attention to the lip primer!"

Olga Romanova's choice

Eyeliner Romanovamakeup Sexу Eyeliner Pen

“The tool of my brand, which I myself never change. Convenient felt-tip pen - it is very easy to draw a thin arrow with it, even if you are not “friends” with liquid eyeliners. Of course, persistent."

Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Tonal Stick

“When it comes to shooting, and you want a persistent, very dense tone that will look good in the frame, then I choose the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD tone stick. I recommend it to girls who go to an event and know that they will be photographed there. It will withstand even the longest day, it covers imperfections well, the texture is very soft and plastic. Like any product, it can be applied tightly or thinly, depending on the effect you want to achieve."

Irina Mitroshkina's choice

Eyeliner 24/7, Urban Decay

“I use it for 'tropical' smoky eyes - what I call 'no makeup' (daytime variation). It turns out not matte or dark, but rather transparent. This pencil is creamy in texture - easy to apply to both the upper eyelid and the lower mucous membrane. Very tough - can last all day."

Eyeshadow Palette Naked, Urban Decay

“This is a versatile palette that you can safely rely on - among the 12 shades you will always find those that will be appropriate for both daytime and evening looks. They are "eternal" - they can last more than a day (especially if applied to the brand base). Available in several textures: matte, satin, shimmery and sparkling."

The choice of Sergei Naumov

Shadows Aqua Matic Waterproof Glide-On Eye Shadow, Make Up For Ever

“The stick can be used as an eye shadow and as an eyeliner. One of the most waterproof pigments - you can even swim with it. A wide range - from nude to green. Dream of professionals."

Pencil for eyebrows Shaping Eyebrow Pencil, Dolce & Gabbana

Triangular - Provides precise and easy application. The pencil does not need to be sharpened, it can be pulled out mechanically. Waterproof formula - lasts up to 12 hours."

Opulash MAC mascara

“I recommend it to those who are always chasing volume. A long, wide brush paints over every lash and creates a curve. Lasts up to 15 hours and does not crumble."

Shadow Longwear Paint Pots, MAC

“These are super resistant make-up paints. Creamy pigments can be spread with your fingers - very easy to apply. Use as a base for dry eyeshadow. They do not roll and hold up to 15 hours."

Choice of Alexandra Kirienko:

Shadow Color For Eyes, Tom Ford

“The shadows have excellent durability - they were applied to the eyelids and forgotten until evening. Give a slightly damp shimmer. I love all shades, but especially Platinum (01)! Versatile - suitable for blondes and brunettes, both for daytime and evening makeup (in the second case, apply in a thick layer). If you don't have an eyeshadow brush on hand, feel free to apply the pigment with your fingers - it will turn out smoothly and neatly. I also recommend using them as a substrate for dry shadows - they will not let them crumble. Remove with a two-phase cleanser."

Foundation Double Wear Light, Estée Lauder

“I recommend the product to clients with combination and oily skin. Mattifies, hides imperfections and gives a slight lifting effect. Light in texture - I wear it in the summer. But for dry skin it is not suitable: it can emphasize peeling. Very persistent - lasts up to 15 hours."

Alena Moiseeva's choice

Cream shadows Color Tattoo, Maybelline New York

“I am of the opinion that cream eyeshadow sticks better than dry ones. These are so waterproof you can even swim with them! Every top makeup artist in the world has it in her cosmetic bag (I checked it with American, Korean, and many European make-up artists). Easy to apply with your fingers and give a rich pigment from the first layer - that's why they are loved."

Choice of Olga Charandaeva

The Flesh Tone Lip Pencil, Medium, Kevyn Aucoin

"Adore! I outline the contour with a soft lead, and then apply the balm: the effect of natural plump lips is ensured thanks to the beige-brown shade. Very persistent."

The choice of Anna Merkusheva

Artist Rouge Matte Lipstick, Make Up For Ever

“I'm a fan of the Artist Rouge line of matte lipsticks. 10 hours on the lips, intense color (just like on the lid) and a beautiful palette of tones. I always have one of my favorite shades in my purse: the Hollywood red M401 Hot Red and the perfect pink M200 Powder Pink. Choose your Artist Rouge color according to your mood! Pink, fuchsia, maroon, purple … I convince clients that every shade suits them! You just need to imagine whether he will "sing" with your clothes."

The choice of Ekaterina Ponomareva

Foundation Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation, MAC

“This foundation works for two: thanks to a dense and rich layer, it replaces concealer and completely covers imperfections. Water Resistant Formula - Pro Longwear keeps its natural and fresh look until you remove your makeup. Pro Longwear fights dry skin with moisturizing particles."

Victoria Moiseeva's choice:

Lipstick Take Me Home Tonight, Sinsation Cosmetics

“If your lipstick is very dark or bright, it tends to print, so I always recommend choosing the one that can guarantee you long-term durability. The shade of this lipstick is playful - translated as "Take me home tonight." Easy to apply with sponge applicator, dries quickly and stays on lips for a long time. You will need a two-phase remedy for removal."

Eyebrow pomade Brow Guru, Sinsation Cosmetics

“This is the most durable eyebrow treatment ever. You can go to the gym, shower and even wash your face with it - if you don't have oil alcohol or a two-phase cleanser on hand, it will stay in place. Possesses durability up to two days. Apply with a flat, beveled brush - lipstick helps to create the desired shape and natural color."

Selected by Ernest Muntaniol:

Le Volume, Chanel

“Perfectly layering - when you need to renew your makeup after 6 hours, you won't have to wash off mascara. If I want to slightly emphasize the lashes, I apply in one layer. When it is necessary to make them very expressive - in several. It delicately works with every type of eyelash - if it is long and liquid, it will not make three sticks sticking together from them, but will gently separate and give volume."

Tim Leo's Choice

Eyeliner Aqua XL, Make Up For Ever

“If I want a rich color, I always work with pencils. Make Up For Ever has Aqua XL - pigmented and waterproof. Wash off with hydrophilic oil or two-phase make-up remover."
