Transitioning Your Makeup From Winter To Spring

Spring officially begins on May 21st or so and it's time to think about transitioning your makeup from winter to spring. For now, it's the perfect time to update your makeup routine to embrace the fresh vibrant energy of the new season. let's look at ways to change your makeup from winter to spring.

Begin your transition by lightening up your foundation because you may have used a heavier foundation to combat dryness and provide extra coverage. In spring, opt for a lighter, more breathable formula like a tinted moisturizer or a lightweight foundation to let your skin breathe. Then think about adding a pop of color since spring is all about bright, fresh colors. Incorporate shades of pink, peach, coral, and lavender into your makeup look. Try a colorful eyeshadow or a bold lipstick to add a touch of springtime vibrancy.

Consider switching to a sheerer blush. In winter, using a deep, matte blush can add warmth to your complexion but for spring, switch to a sheer, more natural-looking blush in a rosy or peachy hue to give your cheeks a fresh, flushed look. You can also highlight your features by applying a subtle highlighter since it can add a day, luminous glow to your skin, mimicking the fresh, radiant look of spring. Apply highlighter to the high points of your face, such as the cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of the nose. 

Then lighten up your eyeshadow to open up your look. Swap out dark, smoky eyeshadows for lighter, more pastel shades in spring. Soft pinks, lilacs, and blues can add a subtle wash of color to your eyelids and brighten up your eyes. At the same time, define your brows since well-groomed brows can frame your face and enhance your features. Use a brow pencil or powder to fill in any sparse areas and shape your brows for the polished look

In regard to your lips, look to use a glossy finish. In winter, matte lips may have been your go-to, but in spring, embrace a glossy finish for a more youthful and fresh look. A glossy lip can add dimension and shine to your makeup look. When done, take time to set your makeup. This is to ensure your makeup stays in place all day, use a setting spray or powder to set your makeup. This will help control shine and keep your makeup looking fresh throughout the day.

By following these tips, you can easily transition your makeup look from winter to spring, embracing the bright, fresh colors and dewy finishes that are perfect for the season. Let me know what you think, I'd love to hear.
