SH: What makeup trends can we expect at Coachella in 2023?

CR: I think we will see a trend of “Pretty Goth” makeup. Bolder and darker colors on eyes and lips. Also, I think sparkly and shimmery moments all over the face will be huge.

SH: Any tips for achieving those makeup trends?

CR: For a girly-goth moment, try a black lip liner with your favorite color or gloss. It goes with every color and adds this fun dramatic intensity.

For a subtle sparkle effect, apply a product like a highlighter to the eyes, cheekbones and lips to give an all-over wet effect.

SH: What makeup products should we keep in our bags at Coachella?

CR: Stila’s upcoming summer collection was made for music festivals! Heaven’s Hue Highlighters ($34) are gorgeous, all-over sparkly topcoats that you can use alone or over any makeup product from eyes, lips, cheeks to body and they give this beautiful wet effect. Also, for a pop of color, Stila is expanding its iconic Stay All Day Eyeliner ($24) range and releasing muted neon liners later this month which look gorgeous on every skin tone and are a really fun way to wear color—they are all gorgeous pastel shades.

SH: Is there anything else you think we should know?

CR: Stila also has a blurring touch-up stick, the new All About The Blur Instant Blurring Stick ($30), which is perfect for long days out in the desert when you start to look a little sweaty—it’s like having a filter in a stick which works great over makeup and to immediately blur and get rid of shine.
