Top Spring Beauty Trends For 2017

Spring is almost here, which means it’s time to revamp our makeup routines! I have partnered with Ulta Beauty to show you four of my favorite Spring beauty trends for 2017.

Beauty trends can sometimes seem intimidating or difficult to achieve, so today I am sharing a few that are super simple and will make you feel beautiful and refreshed for the springtime. Ulta Beauty makes it so easy to shop for each look since they carry so many different brands at different price points. But if you’re reading this blog, you probably already knew that :D. So let’s go ahead and jump into the first one:

A Pop of Color

Springtime makes me crave color, especially pastels! A simple way of incorporating them into a look is with a thin line overlapping your traditional cat eye. I first lined my lids with a liquid liner by L’Oréal and traced it with this gorgeous purple liner by NYX in the shade Vivid Blossom. You can never go wrong pairing a pastel eye with a peachy cheek — I’ve been loving Papa Don’t Peach from Too Faced.

 Glowy ‘No Makeup’ Makeup

Nothing says springtime like ditching the full-coverage foundation for something that lets your skin peek through. I’ve been loving the It Cosmetics Confidence in a Compact. It has SPF 50+  built into it, and it evens out my skin tone without covering up my freckles (which are totally in this season too). The goal is to make our skin appear like a better version of itself, so I used an under-eye brightening corrector by Becca and primed my skin with a purple tinted primer. Did you know purple helps brighten skin with yellow undertones? I skipped the bronzer and instead used an illuminator with a slight peachy tint to serve as my blush and highlighter. To keep the look fresh, I defined the brows with a brow gel by Benefit and topped my lips with Peach Tease from Too Faced.

 Bold Brows & Lips

This look calls for bolder brows and a bold lip color. Can we all agree that it’s time to give matte lips a break? Actually . . . I still love me a good mauve matte lip, so don’t judge me. Buuuut, it is refreshing to see mauve lips with a shine to them, and Ulta Beauty has an array of gorgeous glossy lips to fit everyone’s needs. This one is by L’Oréal in Taupeless. To keep the look youthful and fresh, the eyebrows are full but not super defined. To balance the full brows and bold lip, I added two generous coats of my favorite mascara by It Cosmetics.

Stained Lips

There is something nostalgic about a stained lip, making it feel like Spring is around the corner. This is a fun way to wear a red lip without worrying about it smudging off. As the day goes on, the color will come off leaving a beautiful stain behind. If you’ve never used a lip stain before, you might be alarmed when you open the tube; the consistency is very watery and nothing like a lip product you would normally find in a tube. But don’t worry, this consistency is what allows the stain to penetrate your lips and give them that youthful I-just-ate-a-Popsicle look. Another tip is to use a lip treatment underneath your lip stain to keep lips looking plump and hydrated all day!
