Stop the presses! Coachella glitter butts are back! I know. Will the good news never end? Here’s the sad truth: I didn’t know that glitter butts were even a ‘thing’, let alone a Coachella thing. I just found out about this. What a roller coaster of booty news!

As far as I can tell, glitter butts were a thing a few years ago… then it went away. But now it’s back… and better than ever. So, let’s take a look at the whole glitter butt thing. Here’s what Google AI had to say: Glitter butts were once again a dominant festival beauty trend at Coachella, with attendees embracing bold, bare-it-all aesthetic choices like cutout leggings and sheer bottoms.

Okay, here’s my thoughts one glitter butts beyond “Yes, good look.” I always just assumed this was a general festival look. Not sure how it became a Coachella thing. And I’m also guessing this trend was started by someone who had a pretty good tan on the rest of their body but a very white booty. Solution? Glitter that ass. It’s an elegant solution to a white booty reveal at a festival.

Lastly, you better hope you dance and sweat sooooo much that all that glitter comes off while you’re dancing. Glitter butts and car seats don’t sound like they get along too well. But beyond that? Big fans of the glitter butt over here. Sparkle that ass and get it working like a disco ball on a dance floor. We’re glad the coachella glitter butt is back.

Zoinks! This goes back a ways.

Ha! They were right! Just off by a couple of years.

And boobs will never go out of style.

How to Achieve a Festival Glitter Butt

Creating a sweat-proof, desert-friendly glitter bottom is a multi-step process.

1. The Base: Exfoliate your skin in the shower beforehand for a smooth canvas, then apply a layer of high-quality setting spray or body lotion. [1]
2. The Adhesive: Instead of standard glue, use a thick aloe vera gel, a cosmetic-grade glitter primer (like those by HALF MAGIC), or a strong hair gel. [1]
3. Applying the Glitter: Press the glitter onto the gel using a makeup sponge or your fingertips.
4. The Gems: Level up your look by pressing face gems or pearls around the edges of the glitter design to frame your glutes. [1, 2]
5. Setting It: Spray a generous amount of strong-hold setting spray over the finished design to ensure it withstands the desert heat and dancing.
