T in the park/ Festival beauty must haves :)

Its Festival season and its almost time for T in the park!!! Its so much fun singing and dancing and being with your friends in the wonderful hot (Scottish) Summer weather, cameras and phones will be out and there will be selfies left right and center so here is a few tips to make sure you are looking your best!!!!

Suncream

Lets just throw this one out there right at the start! You need to wear it, its not that expensive and you can pick up a bottle in most shops... dont get skin cancer or blistering burns... just wear a bit of cream!!


Your Make-up


These are my ultimate make-up must haves for holiday or festival season!!! Just a few key products that can be the base for any look!!!
-Urban Decay All Nighter Make-up Setting spray - Spray this both before and after for long lasting make-up setting!! I juts LOVE this product and your make-up really will last all day and night!
-Mac Pro Longwear Concealer - All I can say is you need this in your life!!! Its the concealer sent from heaven
-Mac Studio Fix Foundation - this is great for both natural and full coverage
-Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette - This 3 colour palette is your best friend, highlight, contour/ bronze and blush all in one product!!
-Elf Eyebrow Palette - Get your brows on point!!
Mac Violette Lipstick - Bright gorgeous lips are a must and this is my favourite colour in the world!
Topshop Lip Gloss - I just picked this up a few days ago and its to die for!



Your Hair


Curls are great for the first day as you can style your hair at home or pop into Cosmetique and let us do it for you. Your hair will be bouncy and gorgeous all day and the next day you might even be lucky to have loose waves or you can easily pin it up.


Updos are great for festivals as your hair is up and out of your way and also looks great. Loose messy styles are in right now so even if you throw it up yourself after a night of camping it will still look great!



Braids are great as you can throw your hair into a braid in 5 minutes, its up out your way, you don't need to think about and it will last all day :) This is a great second or third day hair style as your hair wont have been washed for a few days so this can disguise any greasy hair!!

Floral, chain and beaded head bands look great and whatever you do don't forget the dry shampoo!!

Your Body

Sometimes its difficult to shower when going to festivals so make sure you have a packet of baby wipes, deodorant and some perfume or body spray to help keep you fresh. Baby wipes can take off your make-up (as an alternative to your usual cleanse, tone and moisturise routine for a few days) and also can keep you fresh. Antibacterial handwash is a must for staying hygienic. 


As for sun cream, lotions, eye make-up remover and moisturiser why not pick up these handy empty cosmetic bottle from primark for just £1 and fill them up with your faves!



 Your Eye Lashes




Weekend Lashes or strip lashes are just perfect for festivals. Weekend lashes will last you the whole weekend, you wont need to apply mascara and you will look fab. Strip lashes can be applied every morning and can range from natural to full. These will last for one day but you can re apply them all weekend. 

Your Nails



Gelish and Shellac nails are long lasting and chip resistant. This is a gel polish that is applied on top of your natural nails and can last up to three weeks. This is a service we provide at Cosmetique.

You can get gel or acrylic nails (at this time we do not provide this service) or even buy some stick on nails if you fancy.

Enjoy your time at T in the park or whichever festival you attend this summer :)
