Trends & Makeup Tips To Kickoff Festival Season

Trends & Makeup Tips To Kickoff Festival Season

by: Cynthia

 

2020 has arrived!

It’s wild to imagine that we just wrapped up a decade that started off wearing cute little tutus and fluffies, rave bras adorned with multi-colored jewels, and topped with a floral crown.

Wondering what to wear in 2020? I’m about to break it down for you. 

Pastels are the move

Cotton candy pink, lavender, powder blue, and Aqua/ teal.

You’ll see the bodysuits, two-pieces, and accessories in these delicate colors. You can mix and match the colors or do a solid color look.

They pair well with iridescent, holos, and white, so you can re-use pieces of last year’s trends with them.

 

Accessories, Accessories, Accessories!

Ironically enough, I don’t accessorize much in my day to day life.

Raves are where I truly come alive and become an elevated version of myself— A Queen.

If you find yourself on a budget or want to reuse an old outfit but make it look new, add accessories!

This concept is not new, but the accessories are ever-changing.

I personally like to stock up during sales or use discount codes to save $ and add to my rave fashion stash. 

  • Glasses
  • Head/hairpieces
  • Face and body jewels
  • Chunky glitter
  • Skirts
  • Fishnets
  • Gloves
  • Stylish hydration packs
  • Small backpacks or Fanny packs
  • Costume jewelry

 

My new addiction— fur coats and platform boots or shoes. They make me feel some type of way.

Mix and match pieces, layer up, dress it down; you can’t lose

I’m going to quickly touch on an ongoing trend, and that is reflective gear.

I AM HERE FOR IT to continue in 2020. Give me reflective everything!

In white or multi-color, reflective wear is always fun and doesn’t require much thought to pull something together. 

Pro-tip: Reflective material doesn’t stretch so when ordering, it may be a good idea to go a size up in some cases. 

Sometimes, you got to let the makeup do the talking.

When I can’t decide on an outfit, or I want my make up to be the bold statement of my festival look, I’ll wear a comfy outfit such as shorts and a tee (insert unique graphic tee or artist/festival merch here).

I love to create makeup looks centralized around my eyeshadow.

Bright colors such as neon, bold smoky eye, or glitter-centric looks, are my jam. (Hint: use a glitter primer to make shimmer/glitter shadow pop, and last longer.) 

Pair with false lashes and a nude lip to complete the look. Take 1,000 selfies because you worked hard on the masterpiece that is your face. 

 

Everyone can embrace their inner rave goddess and work it 💁‍♀️💅

While fashion trends come and go, beauty is subjective so make it whatever you want it to be. Wear it with confidence!
