One of the most entertaining ways to pass the time, and possibly end up finding your new favorite look for a night out, has got to be experimenting with makeup! So whether you’re just beginning to try out makeup styles, or you consider yourself a pro at this, let the stars dictate what direction you go in this time!
One of my favorite things to throw on my face whenever I want to spice up a look, Aries, is glitter! And by trying it out, you’ll find that it might just become your new favorite too! Try a glittery eyeshadow on your lids, replace your highlighter with brighter or holographic glitter. You can really be as subtle or daring as you want with glitter. Just find what works best for you!
Whether you’re an eyeliner everyday type of person, or you only use it on rare occasions, adding the aspect of color might be the kick you’ve been needing to find, Taurus! You can go for really intense and creative looks, or just replace your current daily eyeliner color with something that pops a little bit more.
For a really long time, I associated gluing on false lashes with really important or fancy occasions that required a lot of work and dress up. But this doesn’t necessarily have to be the case! If you’re feeling like spicing things up, invest in some false eyelashes and practice perfecting the gluing on method. There are different lengths, individual lashes, magnetic lashes, and more. Just because it’s a casual day doesn’t mean you can’t look as if you’re ready to strut down the runway, Gemini!
I’m not exaggerating when I say that adding strong blush into my makeup routine was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. It’s your turn to give in to this trent too, Cancer! Varying from pink, red, and orange shades, you can try out different blush shades until you find the one that best suits you. Try running it not only over your cheeks, but over your nose as well, to give your face a rosy and sun kissed appearance.
Mascara might not be the first thing you think of when it comes to changing the color of makeup, but you might find yourself pleasantly surprised, Leo. Changing the color of your mascara and piling it on freshly curled lashes will give you a fresh new look that’ll transmit onto your attitude and confidence. You can even go as far as to coordinate it with your outfit! Really have fun with it!
As fun as strong and daring makeup might be, we tend to often fall into a habit of constantly wanting to outdo the intensity. While this is obviously really fun to experiment with, you might find, Virgo, that sometimes less is more! Minimal makeup seems to be making a comeback these days, so instead of going bold, experiment with breaking your normal makeup routine, and toning everything down a notch. It might be nice to let your skin have a little break every once in a while, and you’ll find that the more you go out and about with minimal makeup, the more comfortable you’ll become with being bare-faced.
Another one of my favorite trends of the past few years, has been the bushy eyebrow! If you want to try this out for yourself, Libra, consider investing in some brow gel, a new brand of brow pencil, growth serum, or some sleek new tweezers. You can study up by reading beauty blogs in order to find the perfect brow shape or brow products for you. Then- hop on the bushy eyebrows trend! Let the hair on your brows go wild and untamed. It’ll offer a whole new look that you’ll be sure to love.
It’s the right time to go for a classic look, Scorpio! Pick out your favorite or the boldest shade of lipstick you can find, and try it out! You can never go wrong with a classic red, for example. Or, you can find a different shade that compliments your skin tone, outfit, or even your mood! Whether it be matte or glossy, you can change an entire makeup look by going for a really bold lipstick look.
A trend I recently came across and fell in love with instantly comes in the form of dots under the eyes. This is the perfect makeup look for you to try out right now, Sagittarius! You can keep your daily makeup looking the same, but adding a splash of something different with some small dots under your eyes. It’s just enough of a venture into the bold to make you feel like an entirely different person, and have the people around you asking you- the obvious makeup guru- for advice to complement their own looks.
A few years ago, my best friend and I spent days trying to find the perfect shade of nude lipstick for her. Not only is this a great and fun way to pass the time, Capricorn, but you’ll also come out of it with a brand new go-to lipstick shade for any time of the year, mood, or occasion.
If you’re looking for new inspiration for your makeup, Aquarius, you have no need to look any further than your very own interests! You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find that your favorite TV show, movie, singer, or influencer, might have your next favorite makeup look hidden within it! Be on the lookout while you’re binging your favorite Netflix pick this weekend, or Google some images for inspiration!
If you haven’t been lucky enough to be graced with natural freckles, consider faking them with makeup, Pisces! There are loads of tutorials online that can teach you how to apply them. You can even go a step further and henna them on! Having some soft fake freckles is a fun way to express yourself with makeup, and makes for the perfect summer look.
