Permanently Beautiful

Have you ever wondered if there isn’t something magical in the skin of Olympic athletes? Lindsey Vonn skied a grueling, heart-thumping run to take the gold medal; yet when the cameras zoomed in for a close up seconds after she crossed the finish line, her face looked as fresh and beautiful as if she’d just applied her makeup. Despite hot sun, soaking rains, humid arenas and super-human exertion, you never seem to see an Olympic athlete who doesn’t look beautifully made up and ready for the cameras. The rest of us stop by the gym for a 30-minute cardio workout and in minutes are fighting sweaty foundation rivulets and sweat-smeared mascara.

Asked how she manages to keep her makeup looking fresh even during grueling workouts, skier Lindsay Vonn confided to the LA Times that she keeps her ski really clean, exfoliating every day, and relies on a good medium-weight moisturizing sunscreen. Vonn, who does wear makeup on the slopes, starts with a base coat of moisturizer followed by a light powder foundation and prefers liquid eyeliner for its staying power.

Olympic athletes would be good candidates for permanent makeup. With permanent makeup your face always looks fresh and beautiful whether you’re sweating in the gym or taking charge in the board room. Clean, moisturize and you’re ready for the day — and night. When you wear permanent makeup, you know you always look your best.
