Beauty HOW TO ROCK SPRING 2016 BEAUTY TRENDS By Tyshia Ingram Everyone knows the best part of entering a new season is new beauty trends. For spring, in particular, we finally get to tuck away our deep lipstick and dark smokey eyes to embrace the bright, happy colors of spring. And thankfully for us, spring 2016 beauty offers no shortage of bright and vibrant colors to usher us into the season. Yes, that means the “no makeup makeup” trend has finally taken a backseat to color! Here are some of the boldest and brightest beauty trends of spring 2016 and everything you need to do to rock them in style. THE TREND: BOLD & BEAUTIFUL LIPS Could it be? Nude lipstick a thing of the past? Well, according to spring 2016, it is! This season, it’s all about the vibrant shades of crimson red, hot pink, and bright orange. Even bold shades of oxblood get their chance to shine this spring with this deep berry shade being popular through the season. Whether you’re into the liquid lipstick craze or prefer something a bit more traditional, rocking a bold lip this spring is exactly what you need to start off the season right. How To Rock it: The key to getting the bold lipstick trend right is choosing a color that compliments your skin tone and keeping the rest of the skin light. If you’re having trouble figuring out where to start, try a bright classic red. MAC Red is a versatile option for a vivid blue-toned red. You could also try NARS Jungle Red or the more affordable Maybelline On Fire Red. For the rest of your makeup, keep the skin fresh, possibly even opting out of foundation and using a tinted moisturizer with concealer to cover blemishes instead. THE TREND: ALL THAT GLITTER Next to bold lips, glitter is the spring trend that has officially sealed the exit of “no makeup makeup” this season. From full on dazzling glitter eyes to simple sweeps of glitter eyeliner to the almost impossible to remove glitter nails, whatever the occasion there’s a glitter that you can wear with ease. How To Rock it: As pretty as glitter is, it can be hard to get it right. To keep it simple, find a simple loose glitter--Urban Decay has a fantastic line-- and sweep the glitter lightly over primed eyes. For nails, go for a high-end nail polish to get your glitter fix. It’s no easy task getting it off, so you want to get a polish you can trust will look fab. Try one of Jin Soon’s 74 COSMOBIZ SALON APRIL 2016
