As the weather warms up, makeup styles transition to lighter applications and more colorful palettes. Here are a few trends to watch for this spring and summer:
1. Monochromatic shades. Rather than different shades for eyelids and lips, matching colors such as a bold pink shadow and matte pink lips create a unique effect.
2. Glitter and metallic shades. This trendy look involves applying a simple foundation and a nude lip, then playing up the eyes with a bold, shimmery gold. Stick-on sparkles on the eyelids or temples can lend extra glamour.
3. Smoky eyes. While the smoky eye is timeless, this year's trend takes a fresh approach, swapping traditional black or gray for a deep emerald green.
