Unveiling the Hottest Festival Beauty Trends of the Season
It’s that time of year when music, art and fashion come together under the heat of the sun to celebrate festival season. And of course, with the glittering festival season comes festival beauty - and this year, there’s much more to shout about than the usual sparkling face gems and glitter gels.
This year, festival beauty is switching up its extravagant side of bold bursts of colour, and is focusing on radiant, healthy skin, sunkissed makeup, earthy colour palettes, and glowy, bright finishes. It’s 2024, and we’re embracing natural radiance while indulging in skincare-infused makeup and products that enhance freshness.
Let's delve into the festival beauty trends that are set to dominate the scene this year:
1. Brightening Skincare:
This Summer season, festival-goers are prioritising skincare routines that focus on brightening and rejuvenating the skin. With long days spent under the sun, it's essential to prep the skin with products that contribute to a healthy glow and protect against environmental stressors. Think of brightening toners, vitamin C packed moisturisers, glow enhancing serums and day creams loaded with SPF 50 -bonus points for tinted ones, too!.
Keep a lookout for skincare enriched in vitamin C, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid and botanical extracts, the must-haves for achieving that radiant and hydrated complexion.These powerhouse ingredients not only even out skin tone but also help to fade dark spots and boost overall luminosity. Shine on girl!
2. Glow and Shimmer Hydrating Setting Sprays:
Setting sprays have become a staple in every makeup lover's kit, and for festival season, we’re seeing the focus turn to mists which achieve a dewy, hydrated finish that lasts all day and night. Glow-inducing setting sprays infused with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin are amazing for locking in makeup while giving that luminous sheen.
While setting sprays are fabulous for prolonging the wear of makeup and providing a burst of hydration, this season it’s all about those glow enhancing finishes, and providing a subtle shimmer (or a high-impact shimmer, depending on which festival you’re heading too!).
3. Freshness and Hygiene:
In the midst of the festival frenzy, staying fresh and rejuvenated is becoming a ‘trendy’ topic - us girls aren’t going to feel our best if we’re not fresh and revitilised.
That's where freshness products come into play, and this year the beauty biz has made it easier to load up on instant hydration and revitalisation on the go. From cooling facial mists to awakening eye gels, intimate wipes and deodorant balms, these products are designed to take you through the festival season feeling fresh and fabulous.
So you needn’t worry: you can have instant freshness in the form of discrete, portable and convenient beauty buys, and this year see’s an abundance of handy little products serving our needs!
