We are fully in the throes of festival season, and although I didn't manage to secure a ticket to Glastonbury this year (the less we say on that, the better), I have made it my mission this summer to see as much live music as possible. This began last weekend at Charli XCX's headline day at Victoria Park's LIDO festival, and I'm looking forward to All Points East and Hyde Park's British Summertime over the coming months. It isn't quite five whole days at Worthy Farm... But it certainly takes the sting out of Glasto, especially considering how great the lineups are.
One thing I've never managed to perfect, though is festival beauty. Oftentimes, I won't wear anything for fear of it sweating off and streaming down my face. After all, getting mucky and in the midst of things is part and parcel of being at a festival—but I am a beauty editor by trade and if I have bothered to apply make-up, I don't want it to slip and slide. So, when I attended LIDO festival this past saturday, I thought I would try something new: setting spray.
