ADHESIVE ADORNMENTS | BODY + FACE STICKERS, GEMS + RHINESTONES, & FLASH TATTOOS // 2025 FESTIVAL & RAVE TREND INSPIRATION

I'm absolutely LOVING all of the different lewks I'm seeing the ravers serving this 2025 festival & rave season - especially accented with all of the new adhesive adornments options we have for body + face stickers, gems + rhinestones, & flash tattoos!

WHAT are they AND WHERE do WE even get any of those things I mentioned?

1. First, I'll share my favorite shops that have options to buy new...

2. Then, in a separate blog post, I'll share my favorite ways to use body stickers, gems, rhinestones & flash tattoos + my personal tips & tricks as your rave auntie of 15 years!

3. Lastly at the end, I'll link to my own DIY tutorials on how to make your own!

Let's get into it!

WHAT are all of these different types of adhesive accessories anyway?

1. BODY & FACE STICKERS = stickers for your face & body that are usually covered in a medical grade adhesive, stronger for better quality & longer adhesion - especially for our hot & sweaty festival and rave atmospheres! Usually bright, holographic, or UV blacklight reactive for the ultimate accent that makes you stand out amongst the crowd. A new face sticker trend emerging for 2025 is a 3D floral sticker for around your eyes.

2. GEMS + RHINESTONES = usually made of glass, but can be made of plastic or acrylic "jelly" as well. Sometimes pre-backed with adhesive for quick placement & ready-to-go looks, but can be easily adhered with lash glue, too! Usually cheaper that way, too ;)

3. FLASH TATTOOS = metallic temporary tattoos - in silver, gold or rose gold - for the face or body! Come in lots of different shapes and types, like as arm bands or necklaces - so you can wear beautiful & shiny faux "jewelry" to festivals & raves, without the weight or possibility of breaking, losing or getting something stolen! Most recently the trend for the past few years is metallic FRECKLES tattoos for the face.

   
   

WHERE CAN WE EVEN FIND THINGS LIKE THIS?

We all know the classic iHeart Raves & they have just a few diff options for gems & stickers, but mostly pasties in their online shop!

1. Mystic Glow Holo Face Stickers

   1. actually for around your eyes! I personally have not tried these, so I'm not sure how sticky they are on their own, but I have seen a lot of ravers use these this 2025 Festival & Rave season all over social media! I would use extra lash glue + a few more tips you can find here!

2. Cosmic Garden Vinyl Garden Body Sticker Mix Pack

   1. for your face & body! I also have not personally tried these, so I'm also not sure how sticky they are on their own. I would use extra lash glue + a few more tips you can find here!

Next up we have inspiration from RaveWonderland!

They honestly have A LOT more options than iHeart Raves or a lot of other shops when it comes to adhesive accessories. Many of the gems can be reused as well, at least 2x, as long as you take good care of them when you take them off & store them properly.

1. Lemon & Lime Face Jewels

   1. UV neon blacklight for that extra umph at night. Use clear lash glue for longer adhere time.

2. Cosmic Mermaid Face Jewels

   1. AB crystal for the ultimate glimmer in the sunlight & party lights. Use clear lash glue & make sure to keep the original packaging if you want to re-use when you take off at the end of the night.

3. Harvest Moondancer Face & Body Stickers

   1. Perfect for the new face sticker trend emerging for 2025 - 3D floral stickers for around your eyes! I think botanical and fairy themed festival & rave outfits would look so cute with these! I'm not sure how well these can be reused.

Have you ever heard of Sasswear? Me either :p until I searched for some different options for body stickers & face gems, besides the usual shops we are used to seeing! So I thought I'd include them, especially because they have such DIFFERENT OPTIONS, such as Body Stickers & Sticker Sets!

1. Rainbow Reflective Star Pasties & Sticker Set

   1. love that these are REFLECTIVE! honestly the only reflective body stickers I've seen on the market. The pasties look a little wrinkled on the model, but otherwise the other stickers look just fine!

2. Daisy Blacklight Body Stickers

   1. look at how bright these are! all the reviews say very sticky as is. look beautiful for your next EDC look.
