The summer seasons are always full of exciting makeup trends. This is the time when we can experiment with colourful, vibrant looks that match the energy and spirit of the season! In this expert article by celebrity makeup artist - Priya Gulati, we're giving you some of the hottest trend predictions that you should keep your eye on!
Graphic Liner
This trend is all about creating bold, dramatic eye looks with liner. To get the look, start by applying a thick line of black liner along your upper lash line. Then, use a thinner brush to create a winged shape at the outer corner of your eye. You can also add a second layer of liner to make your eyes pop. For a more subtle take on this trend, try using colored liner instead of black.
Neon Colour Palettes
When it comes to makeup, the brighter the better this spring and summer. That's right, neon colour palettes are in and they're perfect for creating bold and eye-catching looks. Whether you want to go all out with a colourful eyeshadow look or just add a pop of neon to your lipstick, there are plenty of ways to wear this trend. Not sure how to get started? We've got you covered with some tips and tricks on how to rock a neon makeup look.
Dewy Skin & Natural Glow
The third trend for spring and summer is dewy skin. This look is all about achieving a healthy, hydrated complexion with a radiant finish. To get the dewy skin look, start by applying a hydrating face mist or serum all over your face. Follow up with a lightweight foundation or tinted moisturiser for buildable coverage. Then, add a touch of luminiser to your cheekbones, browbones, and anywhere else you want to add a bit of shimmer. Lastly, set your makeup with a translucent powder to help it last all day long. For an extra dose of hydration (and to keep your makeup from melting in the heat), try using a setting spray after you powder.
Pastel Colours
When it comes to spring and summer makeup trends, pastel colours are having a moment. Whether you're rocking a pretty pink lip or a soft blue smokey eye, these hues are perfect for warmer weather. If you're looking to try something new this season, definitely give pastels a try!
Glossy Lids
Glossy lids are a trend that we've been seeing more and more of lately, and we think it's here to stay. This look is perfect for summer because it gives off such a fun and flirty vibe. To get the look, simply apply your favorite shimmery eyeshadow or even a clear lip gloss to your eyelids. Followed by some mascara and you're good to go!
Matte makeup today bears little resemblance to what we saw in the '90s. Gone are flat, chalky, life-sucking textures that turn faces into masks. These new generation mattes are forgiving with lighter textures that still show your skin beneath.
The festive and party season is here, and although your social calendar is upbeat, it can leave your skin quite gloomy. From rehydrating your skin to using a gentle make-up remover, there are a few ways to get rid of skin allergies.
With 2015 knocking at the door, it's time to don the party look for New Year's Eve. Try the smoky eye look -- it's quick to do, easy to master and looks great with any outfit.
