This year’s festival season is more exciting than ever, and we’re all set to dive in! If you’ve already snagged tickets for some of the top EDM festivals worldwide, the next step is getting into the festival vibe with your style.
You’ve likely picked out your festival outfit or rave two-piece set, so let’s focus on the finishing touch—perfecting your EDM festival makeup.
READY TO GO BOLD?
Festival makeup is all about stepping away from the everyday look. It’s bright, bold, and designed to stand out. EDM festivals celebrate expression, diversity, and freedom, so the more daring your makeup, the better!
If you want your makeup to be noticed as part of your festival outfit, make it rich, glistening, and intense. In the crowd, subtlety can be easily overlooked, so don’t hold back—make it shine!
LET’S MAKE IT POP!
Striking colors should be used freely to create a standout look. Don’t shy away from bigger outlines or extra layers of makeup. This includes using bold colors in your eyeshadow, contouring, highlighting, and especially on your lashes, brows, blush, and lipstick. You have the creativity, so set your own rules.
Many makeup artists liken festival makeup to stage makeup because, at an EDM festival, everyone is performing in their own way.
HOW ABOUT SOME GLITTER?
You can either blend into the electrifying lights and neon vibes of an EDM festival or reflect them with your own shine. Glitter palettes, reflective makeup, and sparkling finishes will help you dazzle under the lights. You’ll love the effect they create!
…AND SOME EXTRA SPARKLE?
There are makeup enhancements that are perfect for EDM festivals even if they might not fit into everyday life. These include colorful face gems, glitter face stickers, temporary face and eye tattoos, and head and face jewelry. These additions can transform your final look dramatically.
MAKE IT LAST!
Dancing, sweating, and partying can test your makeup’s durability. To make it last, consider using products designed to set your festival makeup. A good fixing spray, misted on every few hours, can keep your look in place.
NOW IT’S TIME TO SHINE!
With your makeup ready and your outfit on point, it’s time to hit the festival and bask in the spotlight. With the flashiest rave outfits and our ongoing tips, you’ll be more than prepared to rock the scene!
