Shower beauty products: From self-tanner to moisturizer, 5 picks that are made for water

Unless we’re talking about cosmetic waters (aka essences), H20 doesn’t really have our back. Sure, we like it when it means our skin is hydrated, or when we want that wet hair look. But in those cases it’s on our terms. When it isn’t, it can be a beauty bully; in the form of sweat, tears, humidity or rain, water makes short work of our beauty efforts. It’s why anti-frizz products and long-wear makeup exist. And don’t even get us started on sunscreen. “Reapply after swimming” is the fine print written on every sunscreen bottle ever. That’s because water breaks down sun protection, leaving us exposed after a dip.
But apparently water wants back in our good books. As evidenced with a crop of products designed for use in the shower, and a sunscreen that actually works better after a swim.
