graziadaily.co.uk 2024/10/5

Metal hardware, subtle neon liners and barely-there bases – this is the new way to do festivals.

Now that Coachella has been and gone, it's safe to say festival season is upon us – cue the endless celeb spamming of outdoor-friendly outfit, hair and make-up choices that have already begun to appear all over our social feeds. Proving it always leads the way, the double weekend festival set against Indio's dessert backdrop saw Lana Del Rey and Doja Cat grace the stage and festival-goers marked the occasion with the very best of festival glam to match! But now all eyes are now on the muddy runway known as Glastonbury, which will run from the 26th-30th June. Think undone hair, glittery lids, and shimmery blushes. The one time a year you can go OTT with your makeup and have no one bat an eyelid. Whether you're looking for inspiration ahead of your visit or want a peak at the best looks coming out of current festivals, look no further than our edit of the festival make-up looks that need your attention now. Keep flicking back to this because we'll be updating all summer long!

The Best Festival Make-Up Inspiration 2024:

Colourful Festival Make-Up

Chloe Bailey is somewhat a resident festival goer and you can tell. Her looks at Coachella 2024 have been vibrant and colourful and that includes her eyes. This look sees hues of pink and purple on her lids.

Housed in Byredo's signature metal ‘rain drop’ compact, these 5 shadows boast the most beautiful, festival ready pigment.

Festival Make-Up Glitter

Glitter will always be a go when it comes to festivals and while it may seem intimidating at first, the new grown up ways to wear glittermakes sparkling a breeze. Kali Uchi's subtle but powerful shimmer at last year's Coachella was an ethereal take on shimmer make-up.

Festival Flush

Blush is everywhere right now - thanks to a certain Miss Sabrina Carpenter who rocked the look at Coachella. Her makeup artist, Carolina Gonzalez applied Armani Beauty’s Luminous Silk Cheek Tint in shades 62 and 53. Consider us sold.

Festival Make-Up With Gems

Gems and stones are a quick way to add edge, texture and definition in a way that can't necessary be achieved with your traditional make-up products. Take a leaf out of Camila Cabello's book and use them to create a magical and multidimensional impact. It's Patrick Ta approved. And so Glasto.

Festival Mani

Simple but striking, a neon mani (as shown on Hailey and created by Zola) is a must for festival season. Want to amp up the brightness of the colour at home? Opt for a base layer of white polish – it allows for a gorgeously dramatic "pop".

Mermaid-worthy crimps have never been easier thanks to this Mark Hill waver. Use pre-festivial and keep the style going with lashings of dry shampoo.
