This past Groundhog Day, Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow, forecasting an early spring, which is no surprise with the weather on campus lately. A new season means new makeup and beauty trends to try out. This spring, utilize a lighter color palette; it is time to trade the dark lips and smoky eyes for a light, fresh-faced look.
This Fashionista’s choice of a natural eye paired with a brighter pink lip is perfect for spring. Her skin appears flawless, topped with a pink blush for that extra fresh glow. This technique is great because it is not too heavy or dark and strays away from a harsh contour. Mimic this eye look by skipping eye shadow on the lid and opt for strictly bold, voluminous lashes. To open up and brighten the eyes, use a shimmery highlighting shade in the inner corner tear ducts. She tops off her beauty look with a bright satin lip color that really makes a statement.
This makeup look is perfect for class, especially for on-the-go students due to the minimal steps. You can also rock this look for nighttime—just add a winged eyeliner for a bolder look.
Besides her makeup being on point, this Fashionista’s hair suits the look perfectly. She creates a wavy hairstyle that is not too put together or tight and the color is golden bright. Her lightweight knit sweater ties the whole look together and is perfect for those sunny, yet breezy, days.
What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To recreate this fresh makeup look for spring pick a rosy blush for the apples of your cheeks, a volumizing mascara and a bright pink lipstick. To match the hairstyle, wrap your hair around a 1.5 inch curling wand for those loose waves.
