4 Ways You Can Stay Fresh All Weekend At A Music Festival

4 Ways You Can Stay Fresh All Weekend At A Music Festival

• Friday, July 29, 2016

From spring to fall, we’re blessed with some of the most epic music festivals in the world.

All around the United States, we’re planning insane weekends filled with lots of partying, incredible music and even better friends.

Most music festivals last the entire weekend, allowing you plenty of time to have a blast with friends, but also plenty of time to be outside sweating in the heat, smelling of alcohol and having your foundation straight melt off your face.

Believe it or not, there are ways you can stay fresh at your favorite music festival.

Take it from us, and follow these tips:

1. Choosing the right makeup is key.

If you’re someone who loves the whole full-coverage foundation, contour, bake, winged liner, heavy mascara, full face of makeup like you’re going to prom thing, you’ll probably hate yourself by the end of the night.

Opting for lightweight makeup will literally be the light of your life for the weekend. If you’re comfortable with it, avoiding foundation all together is probably your best option.

For those of us who can’t get down with a bare face, opting for a long-lasting foundation (like the Urban Decay All Nighter Liquid Foundation) or an super light tinted moisturizer (I dig the Laura Mercier Tinted Facial Moisturizer) is essential.

If you’re someone with more oily skin, it’s also important to set your makeup with a setting spray or setting powder (like Kat Von D’s new Lock-It Setting Powder) to keep your skin on point all night long.

2. The same goes for choosing the right wardrobe.

It’s really important to take into consideration the location and the weather of the festival you’re attending. Make sure to keep an eye on the weather a few days prior to help you plan out your outfit(s).

While looking stylish is always a main priority (trust me, I understand), comfort is also important, especially if you want to enjoy yourself. If the forecast says rainy, opt for a pair of rain boots.

Even if the forecast says sunny, opt for a pair of sneakers. Usually flip-flops aren’t the best way to roll, considering the ground conditions. (Plus, who wants their toes getting stepped on all weekend?).
