Rainy Day Style: Makeup & Outfit Tips for Monsoon Weather

Your make up has dampened, your soaked denims make every step quite laborious, and your boots could pass off for water containers.

Here are some useful tips:

• Dab on some water resistant cosmetic brands.
• Tuck those denims away. Bring out those cottons and lighter fabrics, there's nothing better than Capri pants and three fourths
• Make a fashion statement with bright cheerful umbrellas and raincoats
• Slip into trendy sneakers and sandals. Avoid leather boots and high-heeled footwear.
• Stay away from whites and other light colors, unless you want muddy designs all over them.
• Ensure that your hair is devoid of any oils or gels, they don't make a pleasing concoction when fused with water.

Foundation:
Since creams can melt off the face, stick to powder formulas. Use a very minimum amount of foundation, unless you want a streaky face by chance you are caught in the rain without an umbrella! Use face powder instead.

Powder
Powder should only be used sparingly to blot the shine off of your nose. Powder on naked skin, and powder that's been overused, gives the skin a chalky, sickly look.

Blush
Apply blush lightly -- it looks prettiest when you can't tell that you're wearing it. For the cheeks, pick out the colour your cheeks get when you've spent a few hours in the sun -- either a pretty rose or bronze, again depending on your colouring.
