Get Your Long-Wear Look On

Long-wearing makeup means low-maintenance beauty. It’s a great choice when touch-ups aren’t an option, and lucky for us, there’s a long-wear option for almost every type of makeup. Most of these products require special handling, but they’re worth the effort. Once the color goes on, it stays put. But don’t worry…mistakes can be fixed with specially formulated long-wear removers, such as Superaway Lipcolor Remover, or oil-free makeup removers, such as Maybelline’s 100% Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover or Expert Eyes 100% Oil Free Makeup Remover Pads. Check out these expert ways to wear all types of long-lasting makeup.

• Always apply long-wearing foundation prior to sun exposure. Start at the bridge of the nose, spread outward, then apply to your chin and forehead. Use your fingers, blending with light feathery downward strokes for the most natural look. Most long-wearing formulas set quickly and require speedy application. But Superstay Silky Liquid Foundation with SPF 12 glides on and blends in easily. This breakthrough two-in-one formula combines foundation with a silky coverage extender for 16 hours of flawless coverage and a super silky feel. To apply Superstay Silky, just press down equally on both sides of the pump for a perfect blend of color and silky coverage extender.
• If you’re not in the mood for a long-wearing liquid foundation, try a long-wearing powder foundation. Use a sponge to apply, then blend evenly with gentle, smooth strokes. For a lasting finish that’s powder pure, try Pure Stay Powder and Foundation with SPF 15.
• Stop raccoon eyes with smudge-proof mascaras like Unstoppable Mascara. Place the mascara brush at the base of your lashes and gently roll out and through to the tips to build your best lashes. For a totally long-wearing eye look, pair it with smudge-proof, waterproof liner like Unstoppable.
• Truly long-wearing lipcolor usually comes in a two-step system. Try Superstay Lipcolor for beautiful, luminous color. It’s just two minutes to perfection: apply the SuperStay liquid color to clean lips. Let color dry for the full two minutes. Then apply the ultra-conditioning balm topcoat to seal in the softness. You can also use the Golden Shimmer Balm for a brilliant touch. This lipcolor is worth the short wait—once the color sets, it stays for up to 16 hours of color that moves with your lips without caking or flaking.
