OUTFITS may seem like the top priority as festival season returns, but it’s your beauty bag that’s key to getting you through the weekend.

Keeping your skin fresh, protected and glowing is a big ask during long days, heat and limited access to running water. Here, dermatologists and make-up pros share their top tips.

Prepare your skin for the weekend

Prepping your skin in the lead-up to festival chaos is key.

"A little light exfoliation is a great way to get your skin festival ready," says dermatologist Dr Alexis Granite, founder of Joonbyrd. "AHAs such as glycolic acid and lactic acid are good ingredient options."

A calming sheet mask the day before the event can help hydrate and soothe your skin, says Dr Granite, readying it for hours in the sun.
