As it's the week of the Westport Food and Music festival all the staff here at Petals Hair and Beauty wish you a fun filled weekend!! 

Here are some beauty tips and tricks for your weekend. 

Wear sunscreen, ladies. Sunscreen, an oldie but a goodie.. With a lot of products now with SPF in them it's easy to find something you will like. 

Our top choices of foundation with SPF protection would be the new Smashbox CC creams SPF 30, Smashbox Liquid Halo Foundation with SPF of 15 and Skin Illusion by Clarins has an SPF of 10.

Use dry hair shampoo to make your festival hair last longer and it also helps to keep your hair in place. Kerastase have a great dry shampoo which is available on-line and in our salon. It also gives a body to your hair. Which you'll probably need if you're dancing around and having fun in the sun.. http://bit.ly/1nRCVIB

Use lip gloss as a shimmer for your eyes and for your cheeks!! Need room in your bag and don't want to be carrying a heavy load? Well then choose a lip gloss that can do all 3! Also have you seen Smashbox's new Santi Gold lipstick ring? How fab to have such a handy ring!! Check it out here... Also, look how the make up artist uses it as a cheek blush too!!

Plait your hair or wear bandanas!! Not only does it look awesome it will also keep your hair from getting ruined or messy as you party. Feathers and ribbons in your hair is in this summer to feather up! 

Instead of using polish for your nails why not use nails foils or stickers instead? Easy to put on and easy to take off!! Smashbox have a wicked limited edition nails stickers in the Santi Golden range.
