Taylor Swift rarely cancels concerts regardless of unfavorable weather. Most noticeable with the Eras Tour , whether it was hot weather or pouring rain, singer Lover still performed enthusiastically at all the show’s stops in the US such as Nashville, Tennessee, Foxborough and Massachusetts.

After music nights, in addition to her professional performance ability, Swifties (the name of Taylor Swift’s fan community) also have to admire her perfect makeup that doesn’t come off for many hours in the rain.

The Huffing Post reached out to some of America’s top makeup artists to learn about Taylor Swift’s makeup and how we can achieve similar results.

The real effectiveness of waterproof cosmetics

According to makeup artist Samantha Bentson, no cosmetic product is completely waterproof, even if the manufacturer enthusiastically advertises this use.

When skin is exposed to water for a long time, rubbed against liquid or in a high humidity environment, makeup will inevitably smudge or fade to some extent.

In the same opinion, makeup expert Elaina Badro does not think that with only waterproof cosmetics, Taylor Swift can maintain her red lipstick and curly mascara.

“Taylor must have had an elaborate makeup routine, of which waterproof cosmetics were just a part,” she said.

This expert speculates about the possibility that the Wildest Dream singer used up to 3 different layers of waterproof cosmetics. Such careful makeup helps the female singer keep her makeup from smudging in the rain and maintain her perfect appearance even when she sweats.

Need to nourish skin before applying makeup

According to Elaina Badro, before thinking about long-lasting makeup, we need to pay careful attention to skin care.

No cosmetic layer will last long on dry, rough skin.

Badro thinks the first layer Taylor Swift’s makeup artist uses might be primer. This product helps the singer’s skin withstand harsh climatic conditions.

Then, when the primer is dry, we can continue using moisturizer and foundation.

Always need support

At performances, stars always have a makeup artist by their side to touch up cosmetics every time they change outfits.

As can be seen at the Eras Tour , Taylor Swift often performs for hours without any breaks. However, a truly skilled makeup artist can be on standby and assist quickly and effectively as soon as their artist goes backstage.

“Additional makeovers need to happen quickly within a limited time period. Therefore, this experience is both exciting, stressful and requires a high level of skill,” makeup artist Stevi Christine shared.

Cosmetics artists often use

For performances in the rain, Samantha Bentson often uses artist foundation, eyebrow gel, eye shadow, and waterproof mascara.

Makeup Forever’s Aqua Seal waterproof coating can be mixed with lipstick, eyeshadow or blush to turn them into a waterproof product.

A product that many makeup artists use to keep makeup in place in the rain is setting spray.

This spray keeps the lipstick in place even when wet. They also protect against environmental factors.
