Festival season is in full swing. And with some unmissable festivals still to come, such as Mysteryland and Appelpop, we are happy to share the beauty trends of 2023. From shimmering make-up to bold hairstyles, this year you can let your creativity loose in your festival look. Especially for you, we have collected the most beautiful trends in this blog. Discover which trends you can still try out and how you can rock these looks effortlessly using products from our shop!

1. Stand out with glitter and glamour

A festival look is not complete without a touch of glitter. The same goes for the 2023 festival season. This year, we embrace shimmering make-up looks like never before. Bring your eyelids to life with metallic shades and add a sparkling highlighter to your cheekbones. We are fans of the HD Pro Conceal Highlighter from L.A. Girl. It is incredibly long-lasting and makes you shine all day in your festival look. 

2. Neon colours are in!

We continue with eye-catching trends. This year is all about bold neon colours. Eye-catching shades such as sky blue, bright pink and sunny yellow should not be missing from your eyeshadow palette. Or paint your nails in neon for the ultimate festival vibes. Want to give neon colours a more prominent role in your look? Then try X-Pression's Ultra Braids Pre-Stretched Ultraviolet, and braid your hair in the most beautiful neon colours!

3. Artistic make-up with eyeliner

Do you have an artistic talent you'd like to show off this summer? Then go for a dramatic eyeliner. From bold winged eyeliners to abstract designs along your lashes. This trend gives room for personal expression! An eyeliner we love for this trend is L.A. Girl's Perfect Precision Eyeliner. This one is really nice and stays on well.

4. Smokey eyes are back

Although it is a timeless style, we didn't see smokey eyes back in the trend lists for a few years. But those days are over! Smokey eyes are back and are now coming with surprising variations. They are not only trending in the darker variety. Especially for the ultimate festival look, we recommend experimenting with playful colours like deep purple, shiny green and warm copper. You can create the perfect base for these smokey eyes with L.A. Girl's PRO Eyeshadow Palette Mastery. Trust us, you can never live without it again

5. Lips are made for kissing!

The matte lipsticks (we love them) can go back in the closet for a while this festival season. A beauty trend not to be missed in your look: luscious, glossy lips! Opt for a sparkling lip gloss in bold colours like dark pink or shimmering peach. Your lips will sparkle as you dance into the wee hours of the morning. 

6. Rainbows in your hair

The last but certainly not least trend is rainbow colours in hair! We already mentioned it in trend 2, but coloured hair pieces are totally in this festival season. Go for subtle pastels or dive fully into the rainbow with vibrant colours. X-Pression's Ultra Braids make it all possible.
