Beach season is upon us and most of us love to get into the water for a swim. However, it's not very attractive to come out of the water with makeup running down our faces. Thanks to new formulas, we can wear waterproof makeup—which means we'll look just as great coming out of the water as diving in. So try these products loved by our members, and look hot after cooling off in the water—think of Honey Ryder from that James Bond movie!


1. Christian Dior Waterproof Eyeliner
"Would pay double for this eyeliner. Whoever the genius was that invented this he should be given an award. I have tried all the high end eyeliners, in an epic quest for an eyeliner that could withstand the test of time. And this eyeliner does just that. I have taken this eyeliner swimming in the ocean (no running), in the shower, and worn it running. As long as there is no oil products this eyeliner is not budging." -TarynCardenas

2. Maybelline New York Full N' Soft Waterproof Mascara
"This is a great mascara! I have short lashes with blond tips and this makes my lashes look long without looking all stuck together and goopy! The product is gentle and does not flake off like a lot of others, nor do I get very many clumps. I would recommend this mascara to anyone who is looking for an enhanced natural look, great for everyday." -BBARRALL

3. Revlon ColorStay Eye Liner
"I looove this eyeliner! I got mine free on a tube of Revlon Mascara, and initially just tossed it aside as yet another black eyeliner. I was so wrong! This eyeliner is really smooth and applies with little to no effort at all. You can apply it any way (ie. thick, thin, smudged, on the waterline) and it will stay in place for hours. I can't say enough about how great this eyeliner is. Better yet, it's a twist up, so you don't have to fight to sharpen it. How many times have you ended up using a different eyeliner than the one you actually wanted because it wasn't sharpened and you were in too much of a rush to be bothered to sharpen it? Exactly. Not an issue with these, and they a handy little sharpening tool hidden in the bottom of the tube to get that fresh out of the package tip." -Spoony

4. Yves Rocher Waterproof Eye Pencil
"So I received this product in a swag bag at an event I attended and I have nothing negative to say about it! I even went out to grab it in another colour because I enjoyed the one I got. It's one of those retractable eyeliners as opposed to the sharpened ones, which is what I prefer over having to sharpen it all the time, etc. The colour went on both my lashline and waterline easily, lasted throughout the whole day and didn't need much reapplying/retouching. It also came off pretty easily with my makeup remover/in the shower washing my face. The colour popped and was true to what they were suppose to be. For anyone who wants an eyeliner pencil with a pop of colour and something fun, I would definitely recommend this product to them and you can bet I will continue to use it!" -so_adorkable_

5. Maybelline New York Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara
"This is the only mascara I swear by. Other mascaras are too heavy for my scarce Asian eyelashes, but once I apply several coats of Volum' Express waterproof mascara, it sets immediately and lasts all day, without smearing once! Literally the best mascara out there, and I have tried many." -gladysgrimaldi

6. L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Waterproof
"This has become my new favourite mascara! I have purchased it for the third time now this past year since I love it so much! It is especially great for that drastic effect you want when you go out at night! I do also wear it during the day as its not overly drastic. It defines every lash, yet makes them darker and thicker. It is definitely a must have in your daily/weekly daily kit!" -KarineKiki

7. Sephora Collection Kohl Waterproof Eyeliner
"I love how easily you can create a feathered or winged out look with the sponge tip that comes with the liner. The formula itself is very workable. I often smudge off the edges that need to be fixed. I wouldn't say it necessarily has all-day wear though, as it starts to smudge off bit by bit throughout the day if I'm out for a while." -jchang212

8. NYC Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil
"Okay so i have a review about NYC black nail polish and i didn't rate it much... but my friend during that time said that not all NYC products suck and told me that their waterproof eyeliner was amazing! I bought it reluctantly but it was worth it! This is really worth it! Like, seriously, it works well, I use it a lot! I just recently finished it up and am deffo gunna buy another one!" -amina

9. Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick
"When I bought Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick there was no tester in the store left and I made a kind of risk to buy that. And good for me. The lipstick is so soft and the colour indeed lasts very long (taking into account that I drink pretty much water [all throughout] the day). I have already recommended it to my friends and they are glad to wear it." -Dolce_Vita

10. Lancome Effacernes Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
"Although I had doubts about this product, I ended up liking it a lot! It covers very well, natural, doesn't crease at all and lasts very well. It goes on smoothly... has to be one of my favourite concealers. I don't heavy crazy dark circles, so it's perfect for medium coverage, looks flawless and stays put for few hrs." -ra143

11. Covergirl Outlast All-Day Lipcolor
"What I like about this product is that it's not drying like other all day lipcolors. It stayed on through melon eating, dinner and drinks. I put this on at 3 pm and it lasted all evening. I bought it in the color Berry Sorbet which was a deep purplish pink color, really pretty color for darker skin tones. The topcoat was amazingly glossy. I'm tempted to buy this in other colors." -Judy37
