Getting ready for a festival

No doubt that we will all agree that one of the best parts of a festival is dressing up for the occasion! Festivals are the perfect place to unleash your creative fashion side and to go all out – from makeup to fashion, it’s definitely a DO to be a little extra.

Of course, when it comes to fashion and makeup, there’s no better place to shop than at Woodlands! Pop by MAC at Woodlands for all your makeup needs, their Prep and Prime Fix and Retro Matte Liquid Lipstick is perfect for an all-day wear thanks to its long wear design.  Don’t forget about the sunblock! If you are going to be out in the sun, Dis-Chem is the place to visit for all your sunblock needs, also pick up The Body Shop’s Skin defence multi-protection essence SPF50 that absorbs easily into the skin as a prep before you apply makeup.

Fashion-wise, we would suggest a trip to Cotton On, Factorie and Mr Price for a festival worthy outfit! Think practically when it comes to planning your outfit, consider the venue and possible weather conditions, also you don’t want to wear anything that is uncomfortable or requires maintenance as it will ruin your overall experience.

You can’t attend a festival without at least one fun accessory to complete the look. You can find that accessory by making a trip to Lovisa and Accessorize.

So, the big question is, what to pack when you pack for a festival?
