Through the years, Coachella has always been a major pop culture phenomenon (remember when it single-handedly revived the bohemian aesthetic?). This star-studded music festival has given us endless Instagram fodder and, not to forget, major fashion, hair and makeup inspiration (the more outrageous, the better!). We may have come a long way from its flower-crown days, but Coachella’s 2024 edition continued to serve some uber-cool beauty moments, nonetheless. From sharp graphic eyeliner to bold, bejewelled lids, there were some clear Y2K influences mingling with more current sensibilities (think nude lips and pops of dewy blush). There were many notable hair moments too—cue flowy, dramatic lengths and '90s-style braided updos. Keeping in line with the sweltering desert temperatures, the nails were bold, bright and in-your-face, as the festival style is known to be. Below, find our roundup of the top beauty looks from Coachella 2024.
Hailey Bieber’s glow-in-the dark nails
Hailey’s vivid green nails were a sharp departure from her signature glazed nudes, and we’re here for it. She kept the rest of her makeup pared-back, with a dewy complexion and an over-lined nude pout.
Olivia Rodrigo’s '90s-style updo
Olivia paid homage to '90s beauty with her messy, braided updo and bold crimson lips. Bonus points for the goth-ish black manicure!
Doja Cat’s dramatic blonde locks
It’s probably an understatement to call this look a major hair moment, but something about the icy platinum locks and monochromatic latte makeup just works.
Sabrina Carpenter’s coquettish blush
Nothing’s more current than a pop of dewy, saturated blush. Sabrina kept things fresh and current with peachy, flushed cheeks, fanned-out lashes and nude gloss.
Megan Fox’s pastel blue tresses
In true Coachella spirit, Megan let her hair take centre-stage with a lustrous, pastel blue update. She finished off with a lightly bronzed complexion and glossy, caramel lips.
Chloe Bailey’s purple-on-purple look
Chloe really amped up the drama with this monochromatic purple-on-purple look. She elevated this buzz-worthy shade with silvery shimmer on her inner corners, dramatic, fanned out lashes and a subtle, nude pout.
Shakira’s signature beachy waves
Shakira stunned in her signature, slightly undone beachy waves, paired with a minimal mascara, flushed cheeks and pink lips.
Paris Hilton’s razor-sharp cat-eye
Paris’s take on the classic cat-eye turned out to be quite a hit. She paired the dramatic cat-eye with fanned-out half lashes for doll-like eyes—and finished with her signature nude lip gloss.
Bretman Rock’s braided ‘do
Bretman brought braids back with his edgy hairdo, pairing it up with bold, bushy brows for extra impact. Don’t miss the hint of kohl to give the look some more intensity.
