Festival season is all about bold, creative, and long-lasting makeup that keeps up with you from sunrise to sunset. Whether you’re going bohemian, disco, or cosmic-inspired, this is the time to step out of your comfort zone and experiment with colour, shimmer, and high-impact finishes.
SAINT MINERALS® has everything you need to create festival makeup looks that are not only stunning but also sweat-proof, lightweight, and designed to last through the heat, dancing, and fun. Get ready for Instagram-worthy festival glam that will turn heads and keep you glowing all day long!
Festival Makeup Essentials: The Base That Stays Put
A flawless festival look starts with a long-lasting, breathable base that won’t melt under the sun.
• For a lightweight, dewy glow → BB Cream is your go-to for a fresh, radiant finish that enhances your natural beauty without feeling heavy.
• For a matte, shine-free look → Loose or Pressed Foundation locks everything in place while giving you buildable coverage that lasts all day.
• For extra staying power → Start with Mineral Primer to smooth the skin and create the perfect canvas for makeup that lasts from day to night.
💡 Pro Tip: Set everything with Mineral Veil to blur pores and keep your makeup looking fresh—even after hours of festival fun!
Festival Makeup Trends You Need to Try
1. Gloss & Glitter: The Ultimate Duo
Glossy lips and shimmering accents are festival staples.
• Swipe on our 00 - Noosa Clear Lip Gloss for a hydrated, high-shine look.
• Want a custom lip shade? Mix a little SAINT MINERALS® Eyeshadow into the gloss for a one-of-a-kind colour.
• Pair glossy lips with glittery cheekbones or shimmering inner eye corners for a soft, ethereal glow.
✨ Festival Vibes: Gloss + glitter = the perfect selfie-ready festival glow!
2. Gold-Dust Highlighter: Glow Like a Goddess
A golden, sun-kissed glow is a must-have for any festival look.
• Dust Golden Glow Pressed Highlighter across your cheekbones, brow bones, and shoulders for an effortless, luminous finish.
• Want all-over radiance? Mix a little highlighter with Natural Oil Primer and apply it to your arms, legs, and décolletage for a golden body shimmer.
🌟 Golden Tip: This look flatters every skin tone and catches the festival lights beautifully!
3. Cosmic Pastels: Dreamy, Futuristic Makeup
Pastel tones are a fun, playful way to bring a cosmic-inspired feel to your festival glam.
• Try soft pink or lilac eyeshadow for a dreamy, ethereal look.
• For a warm golden glow, blend Eyeshadow Shade 18 (a mix of gold and olive tones) with Shade 27 (a shimmery brown).
• Pair pastel eye looks with Lip & Cheek Tint in 03 - Latte, a warm creamy caramel shade for a natural flush of colour.
Festival Fantasy: Soft pink lips and cosmic pastel eyes? A total vibe.
4. Statement Blush: The Bolder, The Better
Blush is back in a big way, and at festivals, it’s all about going bold.
• 04 Pressed Blush is the ultimate warm coral shade with a touch of shimmer to enhance your cheekbones.
• Apply blush high on the cheeks and blend into the temples for a sculpted, lifted effect.
• Pair with All-Over Bronzer for that sun-kissed, just-came-back-from-the-beach glow.
Festival Energy: The bolder, the better—blush draping is here to stay!
5. More Metallic: Shine Bright Like a Star
Metallic makeup is a festival essential, bringing shine, depth, and an electric vibe to any look.
• Use Eyeshadow Shade 17 for a shimmering steel effect that makes your eyes pop.
• Sweep Golden Glow Highlighter across your lids for a multi-dimensional finish.
• Pair with metallic nails to complete the look.
Shimmer and Shine: Metallics + festival lights? An unbeatable combo.
6. Bold Eyeliner: The Ultimate Statement Look
Nothing says festival-ready like graphic, dramatic eyeliner.
• Mix water with any SAINT MINERALS® Eyeshadow to create your own bold, long-lasting eyeliner.
• Try a smudged-out brown liner for a soft, sultry festival look.
• Pair bold liner with minimal makeup for a high-impact yet effortless finish.
