Spring Finally. With a new season upon us, time to vamp-up your look with new beauty and makeup trends. Brighten up your life with pop colors and soft tones that will add glow and excitement to a fresh face. Hues in the aqua family, or vibrant shades of orange will give off an exaggerated, daring feel. Minimal, rose tones offer a light, romantic spring touch.

- We’ve seen bold, shadowed eyes cat walk across the runways of our favorite shows like 3.1 Phillip Lim and Marc Jacobs where they represented the baby blues and striking cobalts. Then there was Altuzarra, where they had their models glisten in sunset sky eyes. This palette can offer you mix of it all.

2. There is another option for you if you want to play around with your lids but don’t want to go in the exuberant, colorful route. Glittery eye liners and lids are loud, eye-catching, and definitely a thing for Spring – not just for holiday parties anymore. You can play around by adding a thick silver lining or even glittering golds and rose golds for a powerful statement. Luckily, Stila offers all of these fabulous tones:

3. Remember when everyone was darkening their eyebrows with the harshest shade of black liner that they could find? Well, throw that habit out of the window because natural, brushed-up brows are key to complete your face for a refined, subtle look that will execute flawlessly. Plus, with the unlimited new eye trends happening, you’ll want to keep it minimal up above. All you need is a great brow brush and gel to hold everything into place.

4. Candy apple and fiery lips: a trend that will never go out of style, and also something that we saw a lot of on the runways of New York and Paris fashion weeks. The best colors to add to your pout this season? Most definitely red for romance, and orange for excitement.

5. Don’t have voluptuous lips like all of the A-List celebrities? No problem. While this trend was fun in 2015, 2016 is about utilizing subtle lip liners that accentuate your already beautiful ‘au naturale’ lips. Lining with shades of neutrals and pinks then adding a similar shade of your favorite gloss is great for an everyday look.
