Today I went to the Melbourne Zoo with my brother. Being 102 degrees and hardly any wind it was quite hot, but luckily I was able to stay safe from the sun with a few tricks :) here are a few pics from the day, including a run through of my beauty tips and tricks for a day out in hot weather.
Hair wise, heat does not do me good. My hair is very curly, wavy, long and thick so as you may be able to gather humidity and being outside does not help. Anyway for this day out I decided to go for some simple french braids and then to protect my fair skin from the sun I wore a woven hat.
As for make up I decided to make it as minimal as possible. For this specific day I decided to go with a Sunbum SPF 30 face sunscreen to protect my face, a little Revlon concealer on my problem areas, followed by a maybelline translucent powder. As for my eyes I used booty call by Urban Decay on my lid, followed by Tarte's Better than Sex Mascara on my lashes. Super simple, super easy.
For an outfit I decided to continue my theme of simplicity. I went with some light denim high waisted shorts (american eagle), a navy blue and white loose tank top (ripcurl) , a sun hat, and some American eagle gladiator sandals.
I hope this helped you out!! Let me know if you have any tips or suggestions! Thanks :)
