19 Fun Beauty Trends For Festival Season

September 20, 2024 By Karen Lang

Festival season is not only a time for fun and music, it is also a time to step out and get hip and creative with your style. So I thought it would be cool to dress up and get all artsy. In my quest, I came up with a list of the different beauty trends for festival season and I would like to share them with you.

This year, if you have noticed, the trends seem to shift towards a more hip, more eclectic vibe. The 90s look is definitely a factor, only more colorful which is ironic since that era is heavily influenced by goth and punk. However, this 2016, trendsetters have successfully married a mix of dark muted tones and the rainbow spectrum into a wonderful blend of colors that reflect such a happy and positive aura.

19 Fun Beauty Trends For Festival Season

Get ready for the festivities with these fun beauty trends for festival season…

This year’s beauty trends for the festival season is definitely a show of that; a concoction of colors, glitters, vampy looks, and a definite nod to the inner creatives in us. Here are 19 inspiring beauty trends for festival season.

 

1. Glittery Eyes

Glittery eyelids and glitter tears are all the rave in the trends that have hit us since 2016 came in, and this festival season is no different.

 

2. Blue Hues on Eyes

The blue eyeshadow trend is another one we are taking into festival season. A pop of electric blue on the lids make your look edgier and hip.

Recreate this look using this smokey eye shadow palette and you’ll surely look your best!

 

3. Colorful Peepers

Colored lashes opens and brightens up your eyes. This festival season put on a coat of purple, blue, or even pink mascara to keep the attention on your peepers.

 

4. Chrome Nails

Metallic and chrome nails are back this season, the festivities will only hype this up more as I see them more often now at music festivals.

 

5. Metallic Lippies

|

Major hype has been circulating around metallic lip shades this festival season and we are all for it. It brings character to any look and if you are in a middle of a crowd, what better way to show your personality than with shimmery colorful puckers.

 

6. Vampy Pout

Ushered in by the 90s millennial look, dark vampy lips have returned to the runway and into festival season.

 

7. Braided Hair

|

In the thick of things under the hot summer sun, what better way to keep your hair kept and put together than with braids. Romantic or whimsical, choose whatever your heart desires.

 

8. Beach Waves

|

Keep your natural curls and keep your waves tousled because this festival season isn’t complete without a hair full of messy curls.

 

9. Mermaid Hair

[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BGSQ1VoNdlC/?taken-by=ravenandsage hidecaption=true width=625]

The days of the unicorn has seen its glory, it’s all about us now, the mermaids. This colorful hair trend is my favorite, it’s fun and colorful, and it definitely adds to my artsy persona.

 

10. Hair Gem

[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BG_yNi1y7V4/?tagged=hairgems hidecaption=true width=625]

How much more hippie can you get with hair gems? I love this look especially since this festival season has been nothing but boho hippie goodness.

 

11. Face Jewels

|

We have also seen the face gem trend invade Instagram and rightly so because these beautiful jewels are definitely worthy of your attention.

 

12. Rainbow Freckles

[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BBUolmFlmHI/?tagged=rainbowfreckles hidecaption=true width=625]

From faux freckles to glitter to rainbow freckles, this festival season is ripe with colors and I am not opposed at all.

 

13. Hair Stencils

[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BIMPHG8joIN/?taken-by=janine_ker_hair hidecaption=true width=625]

Fun, artsy, eccentric. This hair trend is going to make heads turn at a music festival.

 

14. White Tattoos

|

Bring the chic element to your otherwise hippie look with white temporary tattoos. Much like Henna tattoo, it is often served in intricate details on the hand, feet, or arms.

 

15. Mermaid Lips

|

Lips in colorful hues have also begun trending early this year and I see it in music fests as well.

 

16. Neon Eyes

[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BBHFr5iPVGl/ hidecaption=true width=625]

Neon lids are also making a comeback this year and just in time for all the festivals happening this time around.

 

17. Glitter Skin

|

Body glitter is making its way into the scene. All that sparkles cannot just be contained on your highlighted cheekbones, your body needs sparkles too.

 

18. Colored Brows

If Coachella isn’t enough indicator, this colored brow look can be seen on the runways of Paris to the Youtube channel of your favorite social media makeup guru.

 

19. Double Buns

|

This look is fresh and hip to the core.  Gone are the headbands with cat ears on them, let’s just create it with hair.

This season’s beauty trends for festival has is a mix of personality punched with a lot of colors. Always, the key is balance. However way you choose to dress, how you carry yourself will always be what others see.
