🌞 Best Sunscreen for Festivals: Protect Your Skin

Sunscreen is your #1 must-have. Without it, you risk painful sunburn, premature aging, and long-term skin damage. But not all sunscreens are created equal.

We recommend:

✅ Hi, Finch Sheer Lightweight Brightening SPF — a lightweight, non-greasy formula that delivers both UV protection and skin-brightening benefits. It’s perfect for layering under makeup or wearing solo for a fresh, bare-faced look.

✅ Hi, Finch Mineral Mattifying Tinted Sunscreen — a mineral-based tinted SPF that offers light coverage plus broad-spectrum UV protection. It works beautifully for all skin types and blends effortlessly.

Pro tip: Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours and wear a wide-brimmed hat to add an extra layer of protection. A hat isn’t just practical — it’s the ultimate festival fashion accessory!

💧 How to Look Good with Minimal Makeup at a Festival

Heavy makeup + summer heat = melted mess. Instead, focus on skincare treatments and products that enhance your natural glow.

✨ AQUAGOLD Facial — This celebrity-loved micro-infusion treatment delivers tiny doses of Botox, Skinvive, and rejuvenating serums into the skin, smoothing fine lines and shrinking pores. The result? Radiant, photo-ready skin that barely needs any makeup.

✨ Drop It Like It’s HA — Our hyaluronic acid serum provides intense hydration, plumping the skin from within. It’s like a drink of water for your face, ensuring you look dewy and fresh all day long.

✨ Tinted SPF — Skip the heavy foundation and stick to mineral tinted sunscreen. It evens out skin tone, protects from UV rays, and leaves your skin looking smooth and even.
