I went to my first ever Festival this summer.....Glastonbury!! I had the most amazing ever time and will hopefully be heading back next year.
In the weeks leading up to the festival, i scoured the net for ideas on what to take, but didnt find anything helpful at all! I have decided to put together my own 'Essentials List' based on my own experiences to help all the festival virgins out there!!
and of course.....YOUR WELLIES!! HAPPY CAMPING!! :)
In the weeks leading up to the festival, i scoured the net for ideas on what to take, but didnt find anything helpful at all! I have decided to put together my own 'Essentials List' based on my own experiences to help all the festival virgins out there!!
- WIPES Wipes AND WIPES - You would be a fool not to take a pack of wipes to a festival! They are so handy for wiping mud, general dirt or spilt beer (if your anything like me)
- Suncream - Fingers crossed the weather will be good for you and if it is anything like Glastonbury this year, you might even come home with a tan! Make sure you pick a suncream with a high SPF, Preferably 30+
- Dry shampoo - After a couple of days of not showering, Dry Shampoo is a complete saviour and will really freshen up your hair and make it look less greasy.
- Tissues/Toilet roll - Because there aint gonna be any toilet roll in them portaloos!
- Antibac Gel - So hand for freshing your hands, especially after using the portaloos!
- Deodorant - Preferably a smaller can if possible to last you the weekend
- Moisturiser/Body cream
- Toothbrush & Toothpaste
- Medical supplies - Painkillers, plasters, antiseptic cream and allergy tablets.
- A Hat
- Makeup - Keep makeup minimal and do not take expensive items! I would recommend only take an eyeshadow pallet (with a variety of colours), foundation/tinted moisuriser, blusher & blusher brush, mascara and eyeliner. Also its wise to take a lipbalm, preferably with an SPF. You will also need a mirror. The small travel ones are really handy!
- Perfume - Take a small tester bottle is possible. I would not recommend taking expensive smellies in case they get stolen.
- Hair bands, clips and grips - Essential when your hair starts to get greasy!
and of course.....YOUR WELLIES!! HAPPY CAMPING!! :)
