The Best Waterproof Lipstick To Try

A lip color that can go the distance—that lasts from morning application through your last happy hour cocktail—can be hard to come by. Even more elusive is one  that holds up when met with water. While not as buzzed about as H20-resistant mascara, waterproof lipstick is more than worthy or praise in the long-wear makeup arena. These are four of our favorites.
