How do those Gillette ladies do it? Long, lean, perfect legs without a single blemish, cut, bruise or mosquito bite? Since it's probably Photoshop, and that's not helpful in real life, we got Barnes to spill her secrets for perfect pool day legs. The secret, it turns out, is a product called Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs. "It makes your legs look like you're wearing tights," says Barnes. As a dancer whose legs are always getting beat up, she says it's great for beach and pool days when you'll be exposing a lot of leg, but notes that it's not waterproof. Since going to the pool doesn't always mean getting in the pool, we'll keep this spray can in our tote bag nonetheless.

Are you the girl who declines pool party invites because you're afraid a little splish-splash will ruin the delicate state of your curly hair? Young, right, has type 3b curly hair and feels your pain. "With curly hair, you don't want to wash it too much, because it'll get really dry. But I have to wash it, because if I don't, the chlorine will break it right off," she say. What's a curly-haired girl to do after a day in the pool? "Use a little bit of shampoo, and a whole lot of conditioner," says Young. And never, ever use a towel on it. "I will not touch my hair with a towel. I use paper towels or let it air dry," says Young.

To give her hair extra protection against chlorine and water, Young sprays it with a heat protector to lock in moisture before getting in the water.

Every mascara-wearing woman knows that while waterproof mascara won't betray your crying eyes, it might actually bring tears to your eyes when you try like hell to remove it -- unless you've got this synchronized swimmer makeup trick up your sleeve: "Put a regular coat of mascara on first, and follow it with your waterproof mascara. It comes off easily and doesn't involve pulling and tugging at your eyes," says Young.

Still not a fan of the waterproof stuff? Aqualillies member Renee D'Amour, right, won't touch it, even though she's in and out of the water for performances all the time. "Once it pools under your eyes, it's painful to get off and damaging to your skin to rub hard enough to remove it." D'Amour swears by L'Oreal Voluminous Original Mascara and Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara. "[Those] won't run through a whole show if I don't rub my eyes," she says.

A long soak in chlorinated or salt water won't do your manicure any favors. Chipped nails aren't allowed during Aqualilly performances, so these women turn to gel or acrylics to keep their nails in pristine condition. "No polish stands up to water except the mighty gel manicure," says D'Amour, who claims that her gel manicures last up to three weeks. Barnes confesses that she even gets gel on her toes. "We dance on the side of the pool between performances, so we need something that can go up against pavement and getting in and out of the pool," says Barnes.

Aqualillies member Tyler Rolling keeps her nails strong through a healthy diet. "Diet plays a big role in nail and hair strength, because they're made of protein," she says. Rolling, who is currently studying to be a registered dietician, eats lean proteins like chicken and fish to keep her nails from breaking and peeling.

This season's trend of high-waisted bottoms and cut-out bikini tops is really cute, but also responsible for providing really interesting tan lines. It's something the Aqualillies deal with during each performance, since they wear oddly-cut suits all the time. Unsurprisingly, all of the 'Lillies protect themselves against the sun with sunblock, and lots of it. "I get out of the water and reapply ever hour," says Rolling.

Here are their recommendations:

-Badger Sun Block for Face and Body because it's all-natural and smells like lavender.
-Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen because it's not shiny and doesn't gum up under makeup.
-Alba Botanica Very Emollient Sunscreen because it's all-natural and water-resistant.

If a weird tan line does develop, Barnes says she uses L'Oreal Paris Sunless Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Lotion to even things out. "It's super cheap and works better than a spray tan if you apply it well," she says. Barnes stands between two full-sized mirrors so that she can see everywhere she applies it. "Pay extra attention to hands and ankles," she advises.
