Spring 2022 Makeup Trends: Skin

Ongoing + Runway 

Fresh Skin

An ongoing trend, and one that popped up on the runway, is fresh skin. Less heavy foundation and powder, and more glow and radiance!

When it comes to foundation, try to use the least amount of coverage you need to even out your skin. So that could mean a tinted moisturizer, BB or CC cream. You could also choose a formula that has light-reflecting properties to enhance your glow. 

After applying foundation, apply a light powder only where you need it. Like t-zone, chin and under eyes. 

You could also use a setting spray, like MAC Fix+ to get rid of some of the powderiness, and help makeup sink into the skin.

Spring 2022 Makeup Trends: Eyes

Ongoing

Pastel Shades

A spring trend that will never go away is incorporating pastel shadows into your makeup routine. 

It can be a wash of color all over the lid, but it can be applied in subtle ways too. Like under the lower lash line with neutral makeup on the top lid. Or, using a liner brush and a little Fix+, you can turn an eyeshadow into eyeliner! 

Runway

Neon Shades

Bright, neon eyes were all over the runway for Spring and Summer. Similar to how you would incorporate pastel shadows, you can do the same for neon

Spring 2022 Makeup Trends: Cheeks

Ongoing

Pastel Blush

Pastel and pink color blushes are a beautiful way to freshen up your look for spring. Pop some blush on the apples of your cheeks for a flush, or higher up near your cheekbones for a lifting effect. 

Runway

Lots of Blush, up the Temples

Use any color blush you want, keep it super simple with a rosy pink. Or go a little bolder with a coral or hot pink shade!

Place the color higher up near your cheekbones, instead of the apples of your cheeks. Gradually start blending the blush upward toward your temples.

Spring 2022 Makeup Trends: Lips

Ongoing + Runway 

Glossy Lips

Glossy lips are a timeless spring staple. Fresh lips for a new, fresh season! You can still wear your favorite matte or liquid lipsticks, just layer a little gloss on top for a whole new look! You can even put a little gloss in the center of your lips to make them look fuller. 

Runway

Red Lips

Red lipstick was all over the runways for spring and summer! Always make sure you’re using a lip liner first to keep lipstick where you want it. 

Red lips are great at any age!

You could also look for a liquid lipstick formula that will have more staying power than a typical bullet lipstick. Look for a liquid formula especially if you’re going to be eating or drinking! 

Ongoing

Pink Lips

Having pink lips is so fresh and pretty for spring, whether it’s a lipstick, balm, gloss or stain! Pink lips can be pastels, bright pink, neutral, or anything in-between. Plus, pink lips will pair well with everything else on this list!
