You may have to wait for the weather to catch up to the season to start indulging in spring fashion, but you can always start playing around with this season’s makeup and hair trends! Every season we see a switch in the popular makeup and hairstyles, and while you don’t have to follow them, it can be a fun excuse to branch out of your comfort zone and try something new! The transition from winter to spring is a dramatic one, and it reflects in the trends. Say goodbye to dark and dramatic and hello to light and airy. 

Here are some of the best hair and makeup trends to have on your radar this spring!

Un-styled Hair

Or we should say, hair that looks unstyled. It’s like no-makeup makeup except for hair. This season it’s all about embracing your natural hair and ditching the hot tools more often for products that help your hair thrive in its natural state. A huge trick for accomplishing an “un-styled” hair look, is haircare! (Psst… If you’re struggling with dead ends K18’s Hair Mask is seriously magic.)

The Claw Clip 

Tying in with a re-occurring spring theme of effortlessness – is claw clip hairstyles. There are surprisingly a lot of ways you can wear a claw clip, however, one of the most popular ways is just gathering all your hair to the back and clipping, even if it’s a little messy. It adds to the look. Claw clips have come a long way since the 90s when they had their original moment, now you can find them in all shapes, sizes, styles, and even some that are virtually indestructible (as you may have seen on TikTok). 

Bobs

The haircut of the season seems to be the bob. If you’re looking to take some weight off of your hair, there’s no better time than right before the heat kicks in! That being said, hair length trends tend to go in and out, so think hard before you go and chop your hair off, especially if your hair tends to take a while to grow! Maybe start with a couple of inches and work your way up. 

Volume

For the moments when we’re not being so effortless, volume comes into play! There are tons of tools on the market to help you achieve the perfect at-home blow out like Dyson’s Airwrap, Revlon’s Ionic Hair Dryer and Volumizer, Hair Rollers, and this Heatless Curler Headband that people can’t seem to stop raving about. 

Lifted Brows

Eyebrow trends are always ever-changing. We’ve gone from paper-thin brows to thick, drawn-on brows, to feathery brows, to soap brows, and now, lifted brows. It’s no secret that eyebrows can completely change the appearance of the face, so there’s this trick going around to give a non-surgical facelift by simply lifting the brows. Some people who have a heavier arch are literally shaving off the end of their brows to extend their brows in a more lifted manner, lifting the appearance of their face along with it. If you’re not down to shave off half of your eyebrow, feathery brows brushed upwards is another alternative. 

Blush

If we had to choose one makeup product to keep in our collection this season, it would probably be blush. After all, it can be used as eyeshadow and lipstick, too! Don’t shy away from pink, rosy blushes this spring – the more the merrier! We, along with the rest of the world, are huge fans of Rare Beauty’s Soft Pinch Liquid Blush. 

Dewy

This one should come as no surprise as dewy skin and makeup is always a preferred choice come spring and summer. But, this spring we’re taking it up a notch. Dewy – almost wet-looking skin is the moment. Apply all your dewy makeup products, then douse your skin in a spray like Mac’s Fix+ to take it to the next level. 

Shimmery Lids

Kind of tying in with the dewy/wet skin look is shimmery eyeshadow. Ditch the matte eyeshadow for something ultra-shimmery like ColourPop’s Super Shock Shadows. It provides an editorial look with little to no effort! You don’t even need to layer it with other shadows if you don’t want to. Just pop it on your lid and you’re set.
