Water/sweatproof makeup ideas?

I have a track meet tomorrow, and being my teams top sprinter, I sweat. A LOT. Is there a light, natural, but waterproof makeup look I can use? Please don't point me out to a bunch of YouTube videos- I'm sorry but they don't work for me because they're either too heavy and/or don't stay on. Thank you, sorry if I was difficult!

Personally I think you should go makeup free. Sweating will just trap the makeup into your pores so you might break out. I don't think there's any reason to wear makeup when you're working out or playing sports.

I agree with Alexis. You may even feel better without globs of make up on. I know I feel like that sometimes.

Nothing is truly sweat/water proof, that is light or natural anyways. you'll do your skin a favor by not wearing anything in the face anyways!

Ok thanks you guys! Would a touch of concealer be ok? I have a spot on my forehead…

Yeah a spot of concealer would be fine, and maybe just some waterproof mascara!

Agree with above don't wear makeup unless it's 100% necessary and you'd feel tons better without makeup on I know indo.

Concealer will be fine :) you might want to set it with powder though so it doesn't sweat off haha.

Mac came out with a waterproof foundation although I'm not sure on how heavy it is... Considering its Mac it'll probably be heavy
