What Makeup to Wear at to Splendour in the Grass 2010
Your Splendour in the Grass Makeup Tips Start Right Here
Sure, Splendour in the Grass is all fancy pants now with its very own spa, but you still need to look good upon arrival. And when it comes to looking good, no one's better equipped to help you than Jillian Dempsey, Avon's Global Creative Colour Director/Mrs. McDreamy. Here she shares her tips on looking cool, not overdone.
Lips: No mirror? No problem. Jillian recommends a lip gloss or tinted lip balm with an SPF. Both are easy to apply when you just want a little hint of makeup. Try Bloom Lip Protectant SPF 30+ ($12.95).
The eyes: Smudging, creeping mascara does not a happy gig-goer make. Jillian recommends a waterproof mascara "because once you put it on, you're done."
The complexion: If you have to wear foundation, Jillian says go a tinted moisturiser or a foundation with a sheer finish. "And I love blotting papers," she says. "They're easy to pack and it's a great way to eliminate shine in any unwanted areas." Try BECCA Luminous Skin Colour ($68).
A multi-tasking option: "I have this product that's called the Multi-Pencil that is like a three-in-one," Jillian says. "You can do your lips, your cheeks and your eyes. It's really convenient." Try NARS Limited Edition Multiple Tints ($89).
And don't forget: Wear your SPF. "That's probably the most important — to protect your skin," Jillian advises.
