Summer<\/a> is officially here, and with it comes heat, humidity and a whole lot of sweat. For many of us, this means our makeup is constantly melting off, leaving us looking like a hot mess. Literally. But fear not, there is a solution: waterproof makeup. Specifically formulated to resist moisture, waterproof makeup won’t budge even in the most extreme conditions. This means you can finally<\/em> enjoy your summer without having to worry about your makeup running or smudging. Of course, not all waterproof products are created equal. Some are better than others at resisting water, sweat and tears, and some seriously clever creations can turn any product into a waterproof formula.<\/p>\n

On that note, we’ve of course done the hard work for you, finding the ultimate sweat and sea-proof formulas and whizzy products that can turn any makeup into a waterproof wonder. All guaranteed to withstand a Dubai summer (or a listen of Taylor Swift<\/a>‘s latest album…).<\/p>\n

Mina Al Sheikhly Resin Waterproof Topcoat<\/h3>\n

We’re obsessed<\/em> with all of Mina Al Sheikhly’s brow and lash-loving products, and it’s safe to say this waterproof top coat did not disappoint. Meet Resin, an innovative, game-changing 2-in-1 transparent topcoat that can be used to set brows in place and transform any mascara into a waterproof formula. “I got so many questions asking for a waterproof mascara, but I didn’t want to do a mascara that’s just waterproof. Instead, I thought, why not do a product that’s for the brows and the lashes? I wanted to work on a product that’s not available on the market, a formula that you can use on any mascara you want,” Mina revealed<\/a>. Formulated with silicone resins and enriched with castor oil, it moisturises lashes and brows while creating a waterproof seal on hairs. A beach-bag beauty essential if ever we saw one.<\/p>\n
