Most makeup trends are first seen on the fashion show runways from Paris to NYC, so for spring and summer 2009, the hot makeup trends are dramatic eyeliner, metallic shades, fuller brows and fresh looking skin.
The best way to start a new season is with a refreshed look, so stop using your heavy winter makeup and lighten up! Vibrancy is back and tinted moisturizer formulas are better than ever with light-weight feel and great coverage. Makeup trends will mimic what is current in the fashion world because the two go hand in hand, so you will see lots of color in clothes this season (pastel jeans anyone?) and lots of color at the makeup counters too.
Knowing what trend to follow is as simple as knowing what your comfort level is with makeup. Are you tried and true with your makeup routine and don’t like change? Then perhaps just trying a new bold lipstick color this season is the baby step you’re willing to take. Are you a makeup junkie who loves to try, buy and collect everything? Then you can take a few pointers from the fashion magazines to see what new look you’ll try next.
Whether you opt for the bold colors of the season, the precision of perfect eyeliner or dabble in the metallic shadows, you will be set for spring and summer’s hottest looks. Just be sure not to wear all current trends at once. Good luck!
