In order to have the most enjoyable experience at any festival, it is essential to prepare beforehand. So we have created this Coachella must have Blog/Survival Guide filled with festival essentials to make sure you guys don’t forget a thing! We are basically taking all the hassle out of packing for you guys, yes we are just that good!

    The Perfect Raincoat

    So what’s our number one must have for any festival, whether it's in California or right here in Vancouver?Rains Rain Coat A raincoat, it might seem like the most obvious one but we know all to well it can sometimes be forgotten or overlooked, especially when good weather is forecast. However, we all know how unpredictable the weather can be so we would rather be safe than sorry in this case. Sometimes it's not ideal to have to cover up your perfect little festival outfit with a raincoat, but fear not!

    The raincoats from Rains range are super cute, stylish & perfect for any festival. These fab rain jackets come in a variety of different colours, shapes & are not too pricey either which is always a big bonus.

    We also think there is no better investment than a good raincoat especially when you live in rainy Vancouver.  We can guarantee if you buy one you will be sure to get your wear out of it!

    A Good SPF

    It is essential to be prepared for the good, the bad & the ugly where the weather is concerned guys. So along with packing your best raincoat & wellies, you will also have to be prepared for the sun & good weather. 

    Coola SunscreenCalifornia is known for being HOT & temperatures are set to be in the mid to high thirties this weekend so a good SPF is a must!

    We have a huge range of great sun protection available in Kiss & Makeup. However at an occasion like Coachella we would defiantly recommend something with a high SPF & something that is relatively easy to apply.

    The Coola Spritz Sunscreen is ideal for when you are on the go or in a hurry. This nourishing & hydrating sun protection feels great on the skin & has an SPF 30. It also has an amazing Pina Colada scent so it gets a big thumbs up from us.
