Just like fashion, makeup trends are always changing from season to season.

With makeup companies always releasing so many different kinds of products it’s hard to figure out what looks are trending and which ones aren’t.

Here is your guide to what is in and out for Spring 2017.

No more matte!

While having a poreless matte face once was the biggest look, dewy is here to take it’s place. With highlight being so popular it was only a matter of time until hydrated, satin skin came to slay. Achieving a flawless dewy look is not too hard either. All it takes are a few new product switch ups to take the place of your favorite mattifying formulas. ELF’s Mineral Infused Face Primer in Radiant Glow is an easy and affordable way to get a illuminating finish without breaking the bank. If you’re really looking for some extra illumination to incorporate into your makeup routine try using COLORFX’s Custom Enhancer Drops. You can add a drop into your foundation for an all-over glow, or you can use it as a metallic highlight on your cheekbones.

Gloss, Gloss, Gloss

With the matte face went the matte lip. Bold and bright matte lipsticks are no longer the biggest trend since nude glossy lips swooped in. A nude lip with a gloss finish is an easy way to make a look casual while still being glam. Some hot products right now are the BareMinerals GEN NUDE Buttercream Lipgloss and Colourpop’s Ultra Glossy Lip products. With Colourpop releasing their new limited edition spring line, it’s the perfect time to stock up on your favorite nude glosses.

No Makeup Look

While the no makeup trend is always a favorite this trend is the easiest to accomplish. No need to go out and buy expensive products to hide the beauty that comes from within! The trick to feeling confident in your no makeup look is by taking care of your skin. With the changing seasons it’s easy for your skin to freak out and break out. The easiest solution is to listen to what it needs. Make sure you’re drinking a lot of water and not overdoing it when it comes to cleaning your face. When you scrub too hard your skin gets irritated which can cause acne breakouts. If you want a little boost to achieve more flawless skin, look into facemasks! There is facemask for every type of skin whether it’s oily, dry, or sensitive. If you still feel like you can’t go without makeup maybe pass on the full coverage foundation and try a BB cream. They are perfect for helping your skin look flawless without being too heavy.

 Warm and Smokey

The dark smokey eye is a little too aggressive when it comes to spring time but that doesn’t mean it’s time to throw out your favorite black liner. Warm smokey eyes are coming in hot this season. Brands like Morphe are releasing amazing warm eye palettes this season such as the R35 so you can achieve the perfect gold, brown, and red looks. Makeup gurus are really loving this look and many are putting up tutorials so you can achieve the look too! Jaclyn Hill released a recent video showing how you can achieve a perfect warm smokey eye in just a few easy steps.

With all these new looks coming in style it’s time to stock up on your favorite brands and see what they have coming out for the spring season.
