There’s nothing like the lead-up to a summer music festival. Buying tickets, planning your experience, and picking out the best outfit are lots of fun. When you start to plan what you want to wear at your next music festival, think about your skin as well. The following four makeup trends will help you look great at the big event.
Eyes: Sparkly Eyebrows
The eyes are one of the most prominent features on our faces. How can we enhance them for a music festival? Graphic eyeliner is one of the most popular options, but if you want a unique look, you need to play with your eyebrows. Add mica powder, sparkly eye shadow, or glitter to your eyebrows to give yourself a unique look that accents your eyes perfectly.
Lips: Bright Lipstick
Another prominent facial feature is your lips. You should wear bright lipstick to accentuate this feature and your entire look. You can choose a lipstick color from your outfit, such as orange lipstick, to match the orange shorts. Or you can choose a complementary color on the opposite end of the color wheel. For example, blue lipstick to complement your orange shorts. If you can’t find the lipstick color you want, you can make your own with mica powder.
Face: Metallic Face Paint
Maybe you want to highlight your entire face instead of one facial feature. That’s fair game at a music festival. Using metallic face paint, you can add color and shine to any area of your face. Some people use stencils to help them paint teardrops under their eyes or butterflies on their cheeks. Other people freehand their designs, such as animal prints on their forehead and neck. There’s no limit to what you can do.
Body: Nature-Inspired Armbands
Don’t forget about the rest of your skin as you create makeup looks. You can apply homemade makeup or face paint to other areas of your body, such as your arms. Making your own makeup is one way to use mica powder in craft projects, and your homemade makeup will look great as an armband. Paint an armband on any part of your arm. Many people gather inspiration for their armbands from nature, such as leaves or phases of the moon.
These four makeup trends will help you rock your next music festival and feel amazing all day long. We recommend spraying any body design with setting spray to help it stay on through sweaty dances. Bring extra makeup for reapplication as needed.
