Slowly but surely- festival season is approaching and we couldn’t be more excited! Festivals are the perfect place to experiment with bold and daring beauty looks, that push the envelope and fall outside the everyday norm. From pops of color, to chrome shine, and barbie-core beauty- there is no wrong answer when it comes to festival glam. Without further ado, here are some looks we can’t wait to see on the main stage dance floor.
LOOK: Bubble Braids
For our Blo babes who love a fun and quirky ‘do, allow us to introduce you to bubble braids. A twist on a simple ponytail or classic plait, these easy-to-achieve braids consist of bunches of hair made into sections of “bubbles,” that are generously divided between elastics. That’s right- we’re talking luscious, big braid loudness here! These pull-apart braids are the answer to looking put together without trying to deal with a down style on those busy festival mornings.
LOOK: Bold Eyeshadow
Whether you are hitting up the desert for Coachella or heading to the city for Lollapalooza, you need to be prepared to make a statement with your look. Festivals are the perfect place to be “extra” with your makeup- making it easier for your friends to spot you in a crowd ;). Of course, we all love matching sets, body jewels, and loads of glitter- but we think you can add a touch of playfulness by going bigger and bolder with your eyeshadow. We’re talking about loud, and vibrant colors to really make your eyes pop.
LOOK: Space Buns
It’s no surprise that you are going to be doing plenty of dancing and jumping around when headliners like Bad Bunny, BLACKPINK, Billie Eilish, and Kendrick Lamar will be making their rounds this festival season. Space buns are the perfect cute-yet-edgy hairstyle to keep your hair out of your face for all of your headbanging needs (let’s be honest- the entire crowd will be dancing to Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever beat drop). You can rock space buns in several different ways, our personal favorite is the Half Up Half Down hairstyle, which Pop Princess, Ariana Grande, is known to rock.
LOOK: Face Embellishments
While we are still waiting for the season 3 release date, the Euphoria effect continues to take over Instagram and TikTok. Starring fashion icon Zendaya, Euphoria has famously started a beauty movement full of glitter, sparkles, bright eyeshadow, and embellished gems. Who needs under-eye concealer when you can just slather on some glitter and gems? Festivals are the perfect place to experiment with your makeup, so be bold and try out a new fun and flirty look this year.
LOOK: Braids
Who said you need to have your hair down to turn heads? Perfect for the desert and summer heat, braids get the hair off your face and neck while protecting your hair from the not-so-gorgeous “frizzing” effect sweating can cause. Simple and easy to execute- these plaits add a fun little flair to an otherwise ordinary look. Whether you are rocking braided tendrils or the Katniss Everdeen Same-Side Dutch Braid, your hair will be held in place all festival long- and afterward, you’ll be left with a gorgeous texture.
