Girl, don’t even stress. Just because the weather’s throwing tantrums doesn’t mean your skin has to. Or your makeup. Or your vibe. Yes, your eyeliner might’ve ghosted you last week, and your hair? Oh, it’s absolutely doing the “I quit” thing. But we’re so not about to let monsoon dull our sparkle. Nope. We’re turning frizz into flair, rain into radiance, and breakouts into proof that we’re dewy and dramatic, not defeated. This season, Westside Beauty’s got your back with everything you need to look fresh, fab, and totally unbothered.
Skincare first, always. If your skin’s flipping between oily and Sahara-dry, welcome to the chaos. The fix? Lighter textures. Gel-based moisturisers, cooling toners, and anything that feels like a sip of coconut water for your face. Hydration is the move, but skip anything heavy that might try to slide off by noon. You want glow, not grease.
And babes, makeup isn’t cancelled. It just needs a remix. We’re talking tinted moisturiser instead of cakey foundation. A cream blush that melts into your skin like a love song. Eye gloss? Yes please. A hint of cheek tint, dewy lids, and a swipe of lip gloss that gives rain-proof radiance. It’s giving ‘glow goddess caught in the drizzle’, not ‘melting ice-cream cone’. Waterproof, or what are you even doing? It’s non-negotiable. Especially if you’re pulling off the windswept, monsoon muse look.
Also, don’t sleep on lip balms that double as your entire personality. Hydrating, slightly tinted, and always in your pocket. Westside’s tinted lip balms have been carrying us through romantic rain walks and unexpected office crush sightings since day one.
Haircare? Let’s just say humidity doesn’t care about your plans. But a little leave-in conditioner and some frizz-fighting magic go a long way. Let your natural texture live its best life. Sleek buns, cute clips, soft waves. Own the mess and make it fashion. Honestly, if your hair’s not trying to start its own rebellion, is it even monsoon?
So no, monsoon isn’t a beauty disaster. It’s a whole aesthetic! Embrace the glow. Lean into the freshness. And step out looking like a walking Pinterest board! You don’t need the sun to shine. You are the shine!
