Get ready with me! Festival Wear

So today i attended a local festival which had lots of artists performing folk style music. It had a very relaxed vibe and the singers were all very talented. I decided to go for a festival style outfit that would keep me cool as it was a hot day, so here's my routine for getting ready:

8:00am- Wake up and get breakfast, have a wash and choose my outfit.

Today i wore a white lacy detailed top from debenhams, a floral skirt from new look, boots from primark and a cardigan from H&M.


8:30am- Get dressed and begin make up routine.

8:45am- Make up!

For this look i used L'oreal Paris infallible matte foundation, i mixed it with a sport treatment gel, cucumber gel and Johnsons SPF15 face cream. By mixing these i keep my skin moisturized and clear whilst giving natural, even coverage. I use a small blob of each gel and foundation and then two blobs worth of face cream. I massage this into my skin. Whilst it soaks in i brush my teeth. After this i apply my MUA face powder with a large powder brush. Then i go to eyebrows. I comb them with an eyebrow comb and then apply Rimmel Londons eyebrow gel before combing my eyebrows through again to make sure the product is distributed evenly. For eyes i used sellotape between the corner of my eye and edge of eyebrow to create a neat line (to use when applying eyeliner flick). I then applied 3 colors from a pallet i have from Avon. Then i used my collection 2000 gel liner to flick a neat line out from my eye. After this i work my mascara brush through my lashes to fan out my lashes and give even coverage. To finish off the look i apply my J2O lip balm and my face is good to go after i use my Avon make up setting spray.




9:15am- I brush my hair through and split my hair into 4 sections. I curl each section using my curler then allow them to drop out so i get a natural lose curl to my hair. This is also effective as it suits people in a hurry and means my hair isn't getting as damaged as if i'd gone through in smaller sections. I use a small amount of No7 hairspray to keep my hair abit more tame.

9:30am- Good to go!

This routine is fantastic as it only takes an hour and a half before i'm out the door meaning i don't have to wake up super early in order to get ready. It also works great for when i'm in a rush as i know how long it'll take me to get ready. When i have bigger events such as a party of wedding i tend to turn the day into a pamper session where i take my time making everything perfect but for a day when your exited and just wnt to get out the door this is ideal! I also think my outfit complimented the event and i dressed appropriately for the weather.


Having a dance at the festival :P
