Festival season is not only a time for fun and music, it is also a time to step out and get hip and creative with your style. So I thought it would be cool to dress up and get all artsy. In my quest, I came up with a list of the different beauty trends for festival season and I would like to share them with you.
This year, if you have noticed, the trends seem to shift towards a more hip, more eclectic vibe. The 90s look is definitely a factor, only more colorful which is ironic since that era is heavily influenced by goth and punk. However, this 2016, trendsetters have successfully married a mix of dark muted tones and the rainbow spectrum into a wonderful blend of colors that reflect such a happy and positive aura.

Metallic and chrome nails are back this season, the festivities will only hype this up more as I see them more often now at music festivals.
5. Metallic Lippies
Major hype has been circulating around metallic lip shades this festival season and we are all for it. It brings character to any look and if you are in a middle of a crowd, what better way to show your personality than with shimmery colorful puckers.
6. Vampy Pout

Ushered in by the 90s millennial look, dark vampy lips have returned to the runway and into festival season.
7. Braided Hair
In the thick of things under the hot summer sun, what better way to keep your hair kept and put together than with braids. Romantic or whimsical, choose whatever your heart desires.
8. Beach Waves
Keep your natural curls and keep your waves tousled because this festival season isn’t complete without a hair full of messy curls.
9. Mermaid Hair

The days of the unicorn has seen its glory, it’s all about us now, the mermaids. This colorful hair trend is my favorite, it’s fun and colorful, and it definitely adds to my artsy persona.
10. Hair Gem

Fun, artsy, eccentric. This hair trend is going to make heads turn at a music festival.

Lips in colorful hues have also begun trending early this year and I see it in music fests as well.
16. Neon Eyes
