1. Prime!

Whatever the weather may be, it’s important to put on primer before anything else. This will let your make-up last longer and maintain your look all rainy day long!

2. Get waterproof eye make-up

It’s almost always the mascara and the eyeliner that run off first and make you look like you’ve been crying. No, you’re not having boy problems – you’ve just been caught unaware by the rain. Don’t worry, make-up brands have thought this out and are offering waterproof eye make-up to last you not just through the rain but throughout the whole day!

3. Pencil it in.

Line your lips with a matte pencil to maintain all day and all weather lip color. Make the perfect cat eye or smoke it up with a kohl pencil for your eyes. Most eyeliner pencils are made of wax and will stay put when droplets splash on your face.

4. Choose a waterproof concealer.

It’s one thing for the rain to get your outfit all splattered on, but it’s another thing to get uneven skin tones when your concealer runs from your face. The next time you’re at the SM Store Beauty Section, make sure you grab a waterproof one.

 

5. Watch the brow!

For many of us, shaping the brow is an important activity. But remember to avoid over-tweezing! This can make hair grow back irregularly leading to bald patches. Instead, try using brow fillers to shade in problematic areas.
