French term
“longue tenue”
French to English
Other
Cosmetics, Beauty
eczema of the eyelids
context;
'Le maquillage : certains métaux (nickel, chrome, cobalt) ou la colophane (utilisée pour avoir un maquillage “longue tenue”), '
I have found various possible terms for this, 'long-lasting' being one, but I thought that 'semi-permanent' was a term more often used about make-up (in the UK). However, I don't know if it would really be equivalent.
Any suggestions?

Its long-lasting and water-resistant formula is also suited to the body.

you also see 'staying power' but perhaps hard to work into your sentence
