Seven Festival-Perfect Beauty Tricks to Try Before Coachella
A far cry from au naturel, sparkle tracks originated with Christy Turlington on the October Vogue Paris cover. Since then, both Suki Waterhouse and Elle Fanning have tried the trend. The technique: Sprinkle finely milled flecks (like MAC glitter in gold, $22, maccosmetics.com) into a pump of serum and tap on in an imperfect drop shape.
Bold blue liner fades to a sexy smudge as the day wears on. Jessica Biel rocked Revlon ColorStay Skinny Liquid Eyeliner in Electric Blue ($6, target.com).
Gilded wreaths (for the flush and the frugal) won't wilt like fresh buds. If you're in the mood to splurge, go for Jennifer Behr's brass headpiece ($595, jenniferbehr.com). Hippies and Halos offers a more affordable match at just $15 (etsy.com).
No lipstick is required for this frostbite-chic look. Lupita Nyong'o's makeup artist, Nick Barose, smeared Lancôme Color Design Eye Shadow in Sapphire Lace ($20, lancome-usa.com) between coats of balm. His warning: Go easy on the rest of your makeup.
From Instagram to Hollywood: Zendaya modeled the social-media phenomenon in a CoverGirl shoot in January. These chalk-filled discs by Hot Huez ($10, sallybeauty.com) give you commitment-free stripes. The trick: Shade 2-inch sections with inch-wide gaps.
Metallic flash tats for tresses — like these Scünci Hair Tattoos in stars and arrows ($5, ulta.com) — add shimmer to your ensemble and wash off with water.
