With these five products, you'll survive that downpour

Wednesday, August 30, you'd think it's high summer. Enjoying long hours on the terrace and sun sessions on the beach. A beauty tip to keep your makeup looking as long and as beautiful as possible would be in order. But if, like me, you're sitting behind your desk typing in long pants, you know that tip would be totally inappropriate. The thought that I can still seek the sun at the end of September softens the pain a bit, but gosh guys, what kind of summer is this? If you're like me, riding your bike every morning, you know that a good waterproof mascara and a fix spray are not really unnecessary luxuries. That's why, especially for you, here are the five products that can survive that downpour. And now let's hope those high temperatures will still come... Then you still have my heatproof makeup tips to look forward to. Promised.

1. Estée Lauder – The Smoother

This multitasker ensures that your skin's moisture balance remains balanced and also creates a soft and shiny result. Use it as a base or as a primer under your foundation. Your pores and imperfections are evened out, and it ensures that you have a radiant complexion all day long.

2. Yves Saint Laurent – All Hours Foundation

This ultra-light foundation is so light and fine that you hardly feel like you have anything on your skin. The formula melts into the skin and provides a perfect matte complexion that lasts all day. Even after that downpour.

3. Benefit – Foolproof Brow Powder

My brows are sacred to me, as you all know by now. I received this newest member of the Benefit family with open arms. A brow powder that allows you to shape your eyebrows in a very natural way. The Foolproof Brow Powder is available in three different colors, each kit containing two different shades. You apply these two colors to one eyebrow to create a beautiful ombre effect, making it look like your brows are all natural.

4. Lancôme – Hypnôse Mascara

If I tell you that this is one of the best-selling mascaras in the world and that one flies off the shelf every six seconds somewhere, then you know enough, right? The mascara provides a hefty dose of volume, and the lashes look incredibly full. This is mainly due to the revealing formula that grabs every little lash. The best part? It doesn't clump and also survives that rain shower, splash in the water, or tanning session on the beach.
