Waterproof Makeup For A Rainy Day
in Makeup TipsThere’s nothing like a bit of rain to ruin the makeup look you’ve put together! Whether you’re on a night out or it’s a day look you’ve put together, a downpour or a splash of rain can be a real pain.

The most important thing is to choose waterproof eyeliner, mascara and eyebrow color as these are the darkest and will make the most mess of your makeup if they get wet and run.

As always, there are absolutely loads of price points to choose from – you can spend a little, or a lot to find the perfect waterproof essentials.
