We will provide you with a comprehensive guide to preparing, protecting, and pampering your skin during the festival season. So, get ready to shine and enjoy every moment under the sun!

Step 1: Preparing Your Skin for Sun Exposure and Festival Routine 

Before diving into the festival frenzy, it's important to establish a skincare routine that protects and nourishes your skin. Follow these essential steps to ensure your skin stays healthy and radiant throughout the festivities.

1. Exfoliating with Tan Extender Scrub: Exfoliation is the secret to unveiling smooth, radiant skin. By using the Tan Extender Scrub, you gently remove dead skin cells, promoting a more even tan and improving skin texture. Exfoliating also enhances the absorption of subsequent products, making your skin ready for the festival glow.
2. Shaving: A clean and smooth shave is a festival must! Take your time to carefully shave areas you want to keep hair-free. Remember to follow up with a hydrating lotion to soothe your skin and keep it feeling fresh.
3. Hydration: Moisturizing your skin is essential, especially when spending long hours in the sun. Choose a lightweight moisturizer and generously apply it to your body focusing on areas prone to dryness, such as the elbows, knees, and ankles. Hydration helps to maintain your skin's natural moisture balance, preventing dryness and ensuring a healthy, supple complexion.
4. Embracing Self-Tanners: Before stepping out into the sun, consider using self-tanners like Glam Body self-tanning mousse for the body and On The Go self-tanning spray for the face. These products provide a safe and convenient way to achieve a natural-looking tan without excessive sun exposure. By using self-tanners, you can enjoy the festival without the need to constantly chase the sun or risk overexposure.
5. Adding a Luminous Glow: Enhance your festival look by incorporating Glowy Gold dry oil into your routine. This versatile product hydrates your skin while giving it a soft, luminous glow. Apply it to areas you wish to highlight on your body, and you'll radiate confidence throughout the festivities.

Step 2: Must-haves during the festival

To make the most of your festival experience, don't forget to pack these essential items:

1. Sunscreen: Sun protection should be your top priority. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF and apply it liberally every two hours. This will shield your skin from harmful UV rays and prevent sunburns, premature aging, and skin damage. You can also opt for a spray format to re-apply on your face throughout the day without ruining your makeup look. 
2. Reusable Water Bottle: Stay hydrated throughout the day by carrying an empty reusable water bottle. Fill it up at water stations available in the festival area. Proper hydration not only keeps your skin glowing but also helps maintain your overall well-being. You will be dancing in the sun surrounded by multiple people, your body wil definitely need a hydration boost. 
3. Lipstick for Touch-Ups: A vibrant lipstick, such as That'so Over Up, is a festival essential. It allows you to refresh your makeup effortlessly, ensuring you look your best while dancing to your favorite tunes.
4. Sunglasses: Protect your eyes from the sun's harsh rays by wearing stylish sunglasses. Not only do they elevate your festival look, but they also shield your eyes from potential damage.
5. Powerpack: Capture and share all the festival moments by carrying a powerpack for your devices. With sufficient battery life, you can film, take pictures with friends, and stay connected throughout the day.

Step 3: Post-Festival Care and Nourishment 

As the festival winds down, it's crucial to give your skin the care it deserves. Once you get home, follow these steps to relax and wash off the day:

1. Gentle Makeup Removal: After a long day of fun, remove your makeup using a gentle cleanser like Gentle Cleansing Milk. This will effectively cleanse your skin without causing any irritation or dryness.
2. Refreshing Shower: Step into a refreshing shower to wash away the day's dust and sweat. Use a refreshing body wash such as the That’so Shower Gel to appease the skin and feel fresh.
3. Whole-Body Moisturization: Pamper your skin with a moisturizer, generously applying it all over your body. This replenishes lost moisture, leaving your skin feeling soft and nourished. 
4. Soothing After Sun Care: If you were exposed to the sun, soothe any potential irritations by applying That'so After Sun. This product calms the skin, reducing redness and promoting a healthy recovery. 
5. Hydration and Well-being: Lastly, prioritize hydration by drinking plenty of water. This not only replenishes your body but also aids in preventing headaches, especially if you've consumed alcohol during the festival.
