I have to swim for gym in a couple of weeks. I wear cover up to school because of slight acne issues. I use Bare Mineral(cheeks n' such) and Neutrogena(forhead)... the thing is since it will be cold, my skin will get dry and after swimming. it will be worse because of the chlorine! What should I do to make my makeup stay fresh and pretty after swim class? I do not have enough time to wash all of my makeup off then re-apply it. I have it 2nd period so it is early! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

i have to swim for gym now.... what you do is since its early in the day dont wear any for 1st period. once you swim you should have enough time to quickly apply your makeup. if you dont want to go a period without makeup then try getting water-proff makeup. then all youll have to do is do a little touch up on your makeup and youll be fine.
to tell you the truth my skins been fine with swimming and the chlorine. just make sure if your using anything like an astringent that deep cleans the pores and makes them dry to hold off a bit on it because the water will make your skin plenty dry.

I would only wear a little cover-up or foundation to school, then just apply what you normally do after you swim. Buy a nice brand of facial lotion to use, clinique has a very good formula, at $21 for a bottle that lasts you half a year, and if you buy it when they have a free gift with twenty dollar purchase, you get a lot of expensive nice make-up for the price of the lotion. Good luck!

Try using pro-active. I think you can check it out on-line. It will clear up your skin and keep it fresh and healthy - so you may not need to wear cover up at all any more if it works. You can look up some natural cures to moisturize your skin after swimming - I would say once the acne clears up, use baby oil on your face before you swim - most of the water will bead off your face, and just wash it off after. Good Luck!

I'm not really sure, but maybe you can just not try to wash it off then spend a couple minutes after touching up, or buy waterproof makeup.
