Stress-free Oktoberfest styling: These three make-up ideas can be implemented in under 30 minutes and are a perfect match for the dirndl trends of 2024.
The dirndl fits, the accessories have been chosen – now all you need is the right make-up to perfectly round off the Oktoberfest look. But don’t worry: Even if you have to do it quickly, you can style yourself beautifully for Oktoberfest in no time. Here are three simple make-up ideas that can be implemented in just ten to 20 minutes:
Fresh Oktoberfest glow: shine naturally in ten minutes
For those who like it simple and natural, the glow make-up look is the perfect choice. This trend will be big in 2024 and goes particularly well with the trendy colors of the current dirndl fashion. What makes the Wiesn glow look: a fresh complexion that shines, but doesn’t look too made-up.
The best way to do this is to use a light BB cream or a tinted moisturizer in the first step. This ensures an even complexion. Concealer under the eyes and on small red areas gives an extra kick of freshness. In the next step, accentuate the cheekbones, under the eyebrows and on the bridge of the nose with a cream highlighter – this creates a radiant glow that looks great, especially in daylight. A touch of cream blusher in a warm rose or peach tone makes the cheeks glow. Simply work it lightly into the skin with your fingers. The eye make-up is kept subtle. A layer of mascara is enough to give the lashes some definition. For a natural look, you can do without eye shadow or apply a nude tone to the eyelid. A touch of tinted lip balm or a delicate lipstick in rosewood tones complete the make-up.
The Wiesn glow look goes perfectly with dirndl dresses in soft colors and a more minimalist style – especially beautiful in combination with delicate accessories and filigree traditional jewelry.
Bavarian elegance: timeless eyeliner look in 15 minutes
For an elegant but quick Oktoberfest look, the classic winged eyeliner look is the best choice. A beautiful eyeliner draws the focus to the eyes for an intense look. The next Oktoberfest flirt in the evening is child’s play.
A foundation or a tinted day cream is applied as a base to make the face even. The skin is also mattified with a little powder in the T-zone so that the make-up lasts all day. The most important step in this look: use a liquid eyeliner to draw a fine line along the upper lash line and extend it outwards with a small “wing”. This makes the eyes appear larger. If you still have time afterwards, you can dab a light, shimmering eye shadow on the movable eyelid and under the eyebrow. Finally, apply a generous coat of volume mascara to the eyelashes to intensify the eyeliner look. A light blush in a neutral rose tone brings freshness to the face without distracting too much from the eyes. A nude or apricot-colored lipstick emphasizes the lips, but keeps the focus on the eyes.
The eyeliner look goes perfectly with elegant dirndls with velvet aprons or statement jewelry. It goes particularly well with more elegant, festive Oktoberfest outfits.
The “Bridgerton” Oktoberfest look in 20 minutes
“Bridgerton” meets Oktoberfest: This look relies on delicate, floral color accents in pink and coral, matching the floral accessories that are very trendy in 2024. This make-up style reflects the colors of the chosen accessories or a flower wreath on the face. Perfect for those who prefer playful, romantic Oktoberfest looks.
A light foundation forms the base. The cheekbones are accentuated with a slightly shimmering blusher in a rose or coral tone – this makes the complexion glow. This is combined with a soft eye shadow in pink or peach. This is applied to the movable eyelid. With a shimmering, lighter tone, accents are set in the inner corner of the eye and under the eyebrow. Everything is blended well for the finish. To gently define the eyes, a gentle eyeliner can be drawn along the upper lash line with a brown or bronze-colored eyeliner. Brown mascara provides the finishing touch. Lips in delicate rose tones make the mouth look voluminous – the best way to do this is to use a creamy matte lipstick or a shiny lip gloss, depending on your preference.
