Easy OUAI Kit

Festival season is upon us with Coachella part one kicking off the season of music concerts on Friday, April 12. Festival goers could not be more excited. However, as much fun as music festivals can be, the dangers are real. Between extreme sun exposure, endless parties and all that jazz, festival season can take a toll and sometimes even have a negative effect on our hair and skin.

But fear not as we have a list of beauty goods to keep you looking and feeling your best while dancing and bopping to your favorite beats. Ahead, consider this your beauty packing list for an epic music-filled weekend – because the last thing you want to worry about is frizzy hair or dry skin.

 

Perfect hair kit

Behold the Easy Ouai Kit. Besides having a clever name, this hair essentials pack from OUAI includes three of their key products for close to perfect hair. The Air Dry Foam allows hair to air dry frizz-free and perfects waves sans having to crunch. The Rose Hair and Body Oil calms frizz locks in moisture so skin appears dewy and radiant. The Wave Spray creates that covetable undone texture for sexy festival hair. Best of all, they come inside this super cute clear pouch!
