Here in Charlotte, we're entering our third week of rain in the forecast ... almost on a daily basis.
As much as I don't like grey skies and dodging puddles, I do get a bit excited when I hear the morning's rainy forecast, and the great hair debate is suddenly settled -- updo time! My naturally curly hair is just not very pretty after raindrops and humidity, so up it goes.
Here are some essentials to making it through the damp day:
-1- Calling fellow shorties! These Hunter Wellies have a built-in wedge. There is a really similar pair of Hunters now for sale for $105 here. If you are an 8, 9, or 10, they are currently in stock for you.
-2- I'm ready to get a little creative with my hair. Loving this braided updo version!
-3- It's time for me to graduate to a "nice" umbrella (eek, I'm getting old for having that thought). How cute is this chevron style? I couldn't find the source but I'm equally in love with this singin' in the rain version and this oh-so-cute kissy face version.
-4- Waterproof mascara is a must in a downpour. Has anyone tried this Volum' Express The Rocket waterproof mascara by Maybelline? I'm typically a L'Oreal girl, but I like this one's snazzy name.
-5- What I'm MOST excited about trying is Benefit's new (and highly anticipated) product, their 15-Hour Primer (here). It's $32, so a bit of a splurge product for me, but the ratings coming in so far are phenomenal. I first heard about this product from Jaclyn Hill's YouTube makeup tutorials. She is the cutest thing ever and has some really great tutorials. Has anyone given it a try yet?
How do you stay waterproof in rainy weather?
I want to know your tips and tricks!
