Long-lasting festival eye makeup looks

Festival Looks: How to Get Eye Makeup That Lasts All Summer (Now on SALE!)

If there's one time of year to take risks with your makeup, play with shimmer and go all out on your eyes, it's festival and summer party season.

We love dreaming up the perfect look to match our outfits, but the same fear always creeps in when temperatures rise: will my eyeshadow crease halfway through the afternoon? Will I end up with smudged eyeliner after dancing my heart out at my favorite artist's concert?

Super-pigmented, easy-to-apply eyeshadows at -50%

Forget flat looks: summer is crying out for textures that play with the light. Metallic and duochrome finishes are the undisputed stars of any festival because they transform your eyes in just a couple of swipes.

The key to making them look spectacular is choosing formulas that feel weightless on the lid but deliver intense pigment from the very first swipe, like our Single Eyeshadow shades.

Lovin' You Eyeshadow Palette Vol. 3: The Cools at -30%

This is THE palette for jumping on the icy girl trend this summer. Its cool tones are super flattering, and its shimmers (like the ultra-shiny silver and the metallics) look out of this world. It also has the perfect neutral mattes to add depth to the crease and create clean transitions that last for hours.

Colored eyeliners at -25%

A festival look isn't complete without liner to frame your eyes. Whether you're into the classic cat eye or want to experiment with floating lines, graphic shapes or the grunge trend, you need a product that really performs, like our Crystal Ink Liner eyeliners.

If there's one color that screams "festival", it's blue

Lovin' You - Vol. 2 The Blues

From a subtle deep-navy smoky eye that frames your gaze to a touch of turquoise shimmer right in the inner corner to brighten your face in seconds. If your festival outfit features denim, this is your perfect match.

Blending Brush #211

The secret to making it all blend seamlessly? The key tool

This is the ultimate brush to pack for the campsite or keep on your vanity, because it's a true all-rounder. It has the perfect size and shape to pick up just the right amount of product, deposit color on the lid without losing any intensity and, at the same time, blend out the edges of the crease.

How to make your eye makeup completely indestructible

If you want your eyeshadow and liner to survive an entire festival or an endless summer night, take note of this pro trick: the "layering effect".

  1. Prep your eyes: Use your brush to blend a little concealer or a very light matte shadow from our palettes all over the lid to even out the tone and absorb natural oils.

  2. Boost the color: If you're using The Blues shades or the metallics from The Cools, lightly dampen your brush with setting spray just before picking up the shadow. The color will be three times more vibrant and will stay locked onto your lid.

  3. Seal the look: Draw your line with liquid eyeliner and let it dry for a few seconds without blinking.
