- Enticing America: The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders on Netflix is a fan-favorite series.
- They meticulously maintain their makeup’s impeccable finish.
- Here are three fail-safe tips to keep makeup vibrant through perspiration’s test.
Through 65 legendary seasons, it’s an undeniable truth that the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders have honed the art of appearing picture-perfect on game day. Their prowess in maintaining a flawless makeup look throughout arduous performances, where sweat is a constant companion, is nothing short of awe-inspiring—and for those enduring the relentless southern heat and humidity, their wisdom is invaluable.
After immersing myself in two seasons of Netflix’s beloved America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and countless “Get Ready With Me” tutorials from the cheerleaders on social platforms, I’m equipped to share their time-honored strategies for makeup that withstands the rigors of a full day and a perspiration-fueled workout.
There’s a trio of essentials that every enduring makeup look hinges on, and the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders seem to be united in their devotion to this trio. Although brand preferences vary, ONE/SIZE Beauty’s primer and setting spray were a recurrent favorite, with the setting spray being a must-have, and applied with a lavish hand—so don’t hold back! Your face should be damp.
Furthermore, loose powder is a favorite for its ability to create a sweat-resistant finish, with many opting for a brightening pink shade under the eyes, such as the top-selling products from Rare Beauty and Givenchy.
Every “Get Ready With Me” video featuring a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader showcases a meticulous technique: layering complexion with cream products like foundation, contour, and liquid blush, followed by a generous application of powder to set everything in place. That means liquid blush gets topped with powder blush; contour sticks are capped with bronzer; and face powder is used immediately after cream products and again to seal the deal. It’s all about that double-barreled defense against makeup fading during the day and post-performance.
When the cheerleaders are spotted touching up their makeup between shoots or on game days, I’ve observed a quartet of staple products that they never leave behind: setting powder, blush, bronzer, and lipstick. It makes sense—these four items can refresh your look quickly if sweat has made its mark or your makeup has begun to fade. The ability to reapply these products efficiently is something we all cherish.
One more thing I’ve noticed: the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders appear to be indifferent to the traditional method of blotting with sweat-wicking sheets or tissues before reapplication. As a genuine, Southern charm would declare: Go big or go home!
