So it’s music festival season and right about now I wish I was in the deserts of Coachella, but instead I decided to just dress and do my makeup like I was going. I wanted to do a music festival look that will work for any of your summer concerts/festivals using some trendy concert accessories. I’m going to the 8th Annual 104.5 Birthday Show where Death Cab for Cutie, Hozier, Passion Pit and Vance Joy are playing and I’ll be seeing Ed Sheeran at the end of May. Below I’ve listed the products for this look (they’re all drugstore, except the brows, working on that) and some of my essentials. If you guys want a music festival fashion post, let me know!
Products:
Note: I would definitely put a sunscreen under my makeup, even if the BB Cream has SPF in it.
BB Cream: Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Perfector BB Cream Normal To Dry Skin formula (I’d prob get the oil-free one for a music festival) in Fair.
Concealer: NYX HD Photo Concealer in Porcelain
Highlight: Revlon Photoready Skinlights Face Illuminator in Bare Light with Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls in Light Bronze. I used these all over my cheeks, forehead and nose.
Bronzer: Maybelline Master Bronze in Weekend Bronze (limited edition last year, I know Maybelline is coming out with a lot of new products in June, hopefully they’ll bring back a bronzer like this) similar Physicians Formula Bronzer Glow-Boosting BB SPF 20
Blush: Colourpop Supershock Cheek in Bonus
Setting Powder: NYX HD Setting Powder in Banana
Eyebrows: Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Brow Mousse in Medium Brown and NYX Brow Mascara in Brunette
Eyeshadows: My technique for this was to make it look messy and wet, so I just layered a bunch of shadows and blended messily.
- Crease: NYX Nude Matte Eyeshadows in Maybe Later and Dance with the Tides
- Lid: Maybelline Color Molten in Endless Mocha (this is a cream shadow) I put the caramel color all over the lid and the dark brown on the inner half and outer half, extending out. Then I used Essence 3D Eyeshadow in Irresistable Caramel Cream (both colors) on top to add sheen and used their 3D Shadow in Irresistable Choco Cupcake (the dark shade) to deepen the outer corner. On top I used Vaseline to make add a glistening effect
- Brow Bone and Inner corner: Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls in Light Bronze.
- Lower lashine: Maybelline Color Molten Endless Mocha (both colors)
Eyeliner: L’Oreal Silkissime Liner in Gold
Mascara: L’Oreal Telescopic in Carbon Black (I’d get this is waterproof for an outdoor music festival)
Lips: NYX Wicked Lippie in Mischevious with L.A. Girl Glazed Lip Paint in Hot Mess over top (I find these at my local Rite Aid)
Extras:
Headcrown: Urban Outfitters Golden Leaves Headpiece (sold out), but their Athena Headband in identical.
Fake septum rings: #1 in the first picture is Golden Acerose Filigree Fake Septum Ring, in the 2nd pictures is Gold Tribal Clip On Septum Hanger.
