Ignore all these people. Of course you can wear makeup to the pool. I wear my normal makeup everyday whether I’m at home, at the pool, or at the beach. I wear long wearing make up (MAC foundation, NARS concealer, Thrive mascara, and powder). I find that even after swimming, I will still look a thousands times better than if I had no makeup on. |
Tell me you’ve always had nice skin without telling me you’ve always had nice skin. |
If people are rue on this thread, F them. I am similar to you - bad undereye circles and wear make-up religiously. Having my BF see me w/out make-up for the first time was scary. Now I am 9 years married and 13 years together it is not a thing (I mean, w/in a year or so together, it became a non-event). I have to warn you that if you are REALLY going to swim, nothing will work. But if you are just dipping in - key is to set w/ a finely milled powder and use some setting spray. |
This is so not helpful. OP certainly wants to know what people used and what works. I can tell from your link that chances are none of those will work. A wax concealer, not the liquid one would work best, because liquid ones tend to move. |
Where is your suggestion? |
I think you need waterproof/longwearing products and just plan to not put your face in the water. I actually don’t wear Malik to the pool but I also don’t tend to get my face wet if I’m just hanging out at a pool. |

Self tanner and use a stain like Benetint for your lips and cheeks. Forget about eye makeup, though. |
This is a water resistant sunscreen with a tint that makes it look like foundation:

There are lots of tinted sunscreens that are water resistant that give quite a bit of coverage. I regularly use the Australian Gold tinted sunscreen and it provides quite a lot of coverage. You can apply a little concealer over that and you should be good to go! |
Unless you're planning to dunk your head below water just wear a little lipstick, maybe eyeliner. |
