Question
A woman who needs to immerse in the mikveh on Shabbat – what can she do regarding her makeup?
We have a celebration, and without it this would be very uncomfortable.
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
Ideally, one should not immerse with anything on the body.
In a case where this is not possible, such as when there is a celebration and a concern for embarrassment, it is permitted to immerse with especially long-lasting makeup that will not come off even during the immersion.
