The number of products you bring with you can weigh you down, so it’s important to streamline your routine for a lighter load. In this blog, we’re highlighting some of our festival tips and essentials that won’t hold you back, but will give you glowing skin. Keep reading to find out which products we’re bringing with us!

Our Tips & Festival Essentials

Tip 1: Tinted SPF

We know part of the fun of a festival is getting ready for the big day ahead of you, but factoring in your SPF is essential. Why not incorporate a tinted SPF into your routine? This way you’ll achieve light coverage with full protection, making it the perfect base for festival glam. Some of our favourite tinted SPFs are:

Tip 2: SPF Lip Balm

The skin on our lips is thinner and more delicate than the rest of our face, which is even more reason to ensure they are protected. Harsh conditions like wind, sun, and cold can make your lips even more vulnerable, so keep them hydrated and shielded with an SPF lip balm! Our picks are:

Tip 3: Hand Sanitiser & Hand Cream

Keeping your hands clean and hydrated throughout the day is so important, especially before touching your face and applying skincare or makeup. Keep germs at bay with a handy product that you can pop into your bum bag, like:

Tip 4: Micellar Water

When you’re at a festival, doing your usual double cleanse might not be an option, so micellar water is great to have on hand. While you shouldn’t only use micellar water to cleanse your face regularly, it will remove makeup, SPF and build-up from the skin with no need to rinse. Some effective micellar waters are:

Tip 5: Hydrating Mist

Much like your lips, your face needs support against the often-unpredictable weather conditions at festivals. Whether it’s cold, warm, or windy, having a hydrating face mist on hand to refresh your skin on the go is ideal! Mist and go with the hydrating sprays we love:

Now you’re all set for your day or weekend at any festival! The key thing to focus on is products that keep your skin hydrated, protected and comfortable all festival long.
