The Best Festival Skincare Products to Try

Is anyone else super excited that festival season is upon us? There are so many good things to look forward to! But as you pack up for your weekend away, have you considered your skincare products?

If you’re especially sensitive or breakout-prone, you know that flare-ups can come at the most inopportune times. It’s important to not skimp on your skincare routine, no matter what you’re doing. But with our few tips and tricks, your skin can stay glowing all season long.

And you can stay carefree and enjoy yourself with nothing to slow you down.

Festival Skincare Needs Sunscreen!

We’ve got to start with sunscreen at the top of our festival skincare list because of how important it is. There’s nothing worse than getting a bad sunburn. The peeling and redness are embarrassing. But also, you can outright damage your skin in the long term. 

When choosing a sunscreen, make sure that it’s broad spectrum. This is the kind of sunscreen that protects your skin against UVA and UVB sun rays. 

UVA stands for ultraviolet A. They’re longer wavelengths that cause aging. While UVB is ultraviolet B. They’re shorter wavelengths and cause your skin to burn. 

It’s easy to remember that A is for aging and B is for burning. You need protection against both, no matter what your skin tone is. Most dermatologists recommend an SPF minimum of 30.

If you’re looking for broad-spectrum SPF that will keep you worry-free all festival season long, check out our Pure Protection Invisible Mineral Face Sunscreen. It’s lightweight, moisturizing, and absorbs easily with no greasy feeling left behind.

For those who wear makeup, it’s an excellent primer with its velvety finish before you apply. It’s made with acne-prone skin in mind. But it’s amazing for anyone if you decide to share with friends. It’s vegan, all-natural, and reef-safe. No matter where you turn up, our sunscreen is sure to hold you down.

Don’t Forget to Take Off Your Make-Up

Having a makeup routine to express your creativity can be one of the best parts of your day. It’s the perfect way to feel good, show off, and have fun.

But if you have breakout-prone skin, it’s important to take off your makeup at the end of your day.

Makeup is typically oil-based. If you’re breakout-prone, you know that oil is what can block pores. This causes irritation, inflammation, and breakouts which is the last thing you want when you’re having a good time.

Using regular makeup wipes can be abrasive and irritating. And they don’t always do a good job of taking off everything from your skin without going through several of them.

If you’re looking for a solid makeup remover that cleans your skin and has skincare benefits, add our Completely Clear Gelee Makeup Remover to your list. 

It removes the most stubborn, waterproof makeup in your routine. But our makeup remover also calms inflamed skin and boosts collagen. It reduces fine lines and helps your skin look its best. Simply apply to a cotton round and reveal your glowing skin underneath.

What If My Makeup Needs A Refresh?

Not quite ready to take off your makeup but need a pick-me-up?

If you have moments where you simply need a refresh for your face, take our Clarifying Hydrating Dew with you. 

Blended with rosewater, cucumber, and saw palmetto it not only keeps your makeup looking amazing, it does so much more.

This clarifying spray also soothes inflammation and hydrates your skin, it also balances oiliness and helps with redness. 

Any time that you're looking for a cooling, refreshing spray, this is the one to reach for.

A Solid Festival Skincare Routine

Now that we have sunscreen for protection, it’s time to talk about the rest of your routine. While festivals are fun, they’re also hot. You’re having a great time, dancing, sweating, and basking in the sun. 

But after you’re done for the day, it’s important to clean up. It’s important to clean up the sweat from your face because it can cause a build-up of bacteria, dirt, and oil on your skin. When you get hot, your pores expand and are more likely to get blocked by this build-up.

Carrying around your entire skincare routine can be a pain in the butt. Plus, there’s no guarantee that you’ll be able to get to the water as easily.

Still, you don’t have to worry about skipping your routine entirely. We’ve made it especially easy to have glowing skin no matter where you are.

Our Clear Skin Kit will keep your skin looking and feeling its best. Made with over 40 active ingredients, it works to balance oil, even your skin tone, and soothe your skin before breakouts have a chance to start. 

And the best thing about our formula is that you don’t need to worry about using water to reap the benefits. That’s right. It’s a water-free skincare routine. 

All you need are some cotton rounds and you’re good to go. Don’t worry about buying anything extra. We’ve included everything you need in our kit. From the organic cotton rounds to the cleanser and the cream.

Our travel kit comes with the Flawless Nourishment Cream, but if you find yourself craving choice with creams, there's always our full-sized Clear Skin Kit

It's the same quality and simplicity you can expect from our travel size. But you can choose between our Flawless Nourishment Cream or our Flawless Water Crème for a more lightweight finish.

Both are here to make your festival skincare routine flawless.

The Takeaway

Running the festival circuit doesn’t have to mean neglecting your skin care. You can have the time of your life and still not worry about breakouts in the process. 

With a few important products added to your routine, you can have fun and still keep breakouts at bay. With a great festival skincare routine, you're ready to have fun and shine in the process.
