Makeup on Yom Tov

Question

This year, Rosh Hashanah is 3 days long. Is it permissible to wear makeup on Rosh Hashanah, or must I go without makeup for 3 days because my makeup doesn't last on my skin for more than a day?

Answer

Hello,

It is forbidden to apply makeup on Rosh Hashanah. Therefore, if the makeup wears off, it is not permissible to reapply it.

You can prepare in advance with particularly long-lasting makeup.
