this week is officially a wash out. The rain is pouring down right now as festivals kick off both at home and abroad. With windy conditions and possible muddy wellies to look forward to, what beauty tips are there that will get us through it all, still making us look like fresh faced Aphrodites?
The best advice is to get your skin in as good a condition as possible. Moisturise regularly and exfoliate when needed. Never be too harsh as this will irritate the skin. Have a little tin of vaseline at hand to make lips shine and use on eyelashes if mascara is missing in action. (Vaseline as a mascara will not make black streaks on your face should you get caught in a downfall!)
Pull long hair back in a ponytail and dress with ribbon or pins. This way you avoid the ‘dragged through the hedge’ look. If you have a dual purpose blush/lip stain then you are laughing! These gems ensure you have a youthful glow when the day is taking its toll.
One thing that can make the best of weekends/festivals seem like an ordeal is dragging heavy shower gels, shampoos and soaps along for the ride. One good idea is to get your hands of some liquid free paper soaps, shaving foams and laundry paper. These are invaluable and inexpensive. They also mean you have more room in your bag for purchases!!
