Not surprisingly, the state of the world this past year has left its mark on fashion runways. Highlighted eyes, minimalist complexions... Let’s take a closer look at spring's must-have makeup trends!
ALL EYES ARE ON THE EYES!

This season, largely because of protective masks, eyelids became the playground of choice. The idea: go glam with a thick, ultra-black line, revisit the classic smoky eye, create a party look with a big dose of glitter and pure-pop blush... In truth, anything goes! (Psst! There’s nothing stopping you from being a little more sober with a touch of golden or Champagne blush, if that’s more your style...)
LUMINOUS COMPLEXIONS

The minimalist, makeup-free look was already popular, and with so much time spent at home, it’s more true than ever! And let’s face it: natural radiance and a hyper-moisturized, even slightly damp finish looks good on everyone. The secret: a touch of concealer, a good palette of correctors, and a few well-chosen nourishing, translucent-tinted products. Remember: healthy, luminous beauty milks are your best friends. Apply with your fingertips or a brush and add a few drops of liquid illuminator for an extra little boost of radiance.
RED MOUTHS

Masks might have temporarily covered up our lips, but they didn’t get rid of them! The bright red pout is back in the spotlight (did it ever really leave?). It’s great for enhancing discreet makeup and perfect for adding sparkle to your teleconferences! Or why not match it with smoky eyes if you're feeling bold!
If you have to wear a mask, make sure you choose a matte, long-lasting lipstick that stands up to the friction. For outdoor picnics or dinners on a terrace, choose a high-gloss finish that brings your look to life!
