How to Make Makeup Last Longer, According to Celebrity Makeup Artists


Find a long-wear formula

Sarah Tanno, celebrity makeup artist and Global Artistry Director of Haus Labs, knows a thing or two about long-lasting makeup after doing Lady Gaga’s makeup on tour. She says finding a product that promises long wear and delivers is essential. On Gaga, she loves using Atomic Shake Lip Lacquer ($26). “I call it a makeup miracle. I used it on Gaga during her Chromatica Ball tour this summer, and it was the only lip product that could withstand high-intensity performance all day. It has an amazing glossy finish, is water resistant, and is transfer-proof.”

Celebrity makeup artist and aesthetician D’Andre Michael agrees that it’s all about the products you use. “I love using DMK Cosmetics Foundation. It’s probably one of the longest-wearing foundations out there. It’s my trusted friend when doing Angela Bassett on long shoot days on T.V. and film,” says Michael. “It’s silicone-based and doesn’t oxidize, fade, crease or smudge under all conditions—sweat, heat, water, hot lights, etc.” He also shared a tip about applying foundation when you’re in it for the long haul. “I use a Beautyblender ($20), and as I apply, I press and roll. This gives you even coverage, lets you control your coverage and blending abilities and gives that airbrushed look.”
