WORDS – Daria Kruchinina | New York, USA
THIS SPRING, it is all about your individuality. And when it comes to hair trends, your natural hair texture, – from killer curls to beach waves, – is being embraced everywhere here in NYC, from the streets to New York Fashion Week. When it comes to your skin, a bright champagne highlighter, clumpy effect mascara, and flawless skincare is still on trend, but why not to play with new textures and colors this season?
Pastel colors are at the top of everyone’s list this season. The best color palette for the first month of spring is pastel pink, green, and blue. A light pink blush color will immediately freshen up your look and a pink pastel eyeshadow can emphasize the contrast and deepen the green or blue of your eyes.
THE KEY SPRING TREND in skin is ‘glassing’ and a little bit of highlighter. There is a lot of moisture and natural hydration but this time around there is less of the luminizing effect, and more high shine glass-like glazed finishes. The important thing is that you want it to look natural, like a no-makeup look. If you’re not sure about skin, just let your lips look glazed and fresh. Ready for a little bit more? Apply a liquid-oil texture with your fingers on the eyelids.
Remember – Spring is coming and its mood could be found anywhere from your manicure to fresh-cut white flowers in a hairstyle.
