7 of the biggest beauty trends for spring

This season’s beauty message is all about individuality. Think high-impact makeup, ornate hair and rebellious nails. Here’s 7 unmissable trends, to ensure your spring look is on-point.

Grown-up glitter
Metallic dresses –long and short– are setting spring’s “more is more” mood. But what we’re really excited about is the makeup. Think otherworldly gold lips, brow-skimming streaks of sparkle and colourful showers of sequins worn in hair and on eyelids.

Decorative hair
This spring, hair plays understudy to hair accessories – they were everywhere! Unleash your inner princess and try on a tiara (best worn with this season’s slip dress), or pair 70s hair with fresh blooms. Maximalists will love the colourful head bands and scarves on offer, or channel something more demure with a loosely tied hair bow.

Monochrome manicures
Fashion’s fascination with nail art is going nowhere. This season, the classic French manicure is toughened up with a monochrome palette and geometric shapes. Get the look with our video.

Out of boundary blue
Fashion is having a blue eye makeup moment. Think sweeps of robin egg worked into bandit masks and hazy blue halos that reach brow bones and cheeks. We recommend pairing an exaggerated cat-eye or electric blue lashes, with a pyjama-inspired suit.

Scarlet fever
Matte red at Topshop Unique, crimson at Oscar De La Renta, oxblood at Burberry Prorsum – need we go on? Nina Ricci, Jason Wu and Victoria Beckham all confirmed it: red lips aren’t going anywhere!

Braidy bunch
The humble braid has been give a makeover. For SS16, plaits come in an abundance of styles: tightly woven cornrows, elegant French
 plaits, micro-dreadlocks and low-slung pigtails – they were all there. But, our favourite? The spiral braid. It’s got all the fashion-set talking.

Natural beauty 
We call it “supermodel skin”. A flawless, dewy complexion, flushed cheeks and handsome brows. Perfect for pairing with this season’s pretty prairie dresses (as seen at Alexander McQueen) or punchy primary colours (at DSquared2) or bare shoulders (seen – well, everywhere!).
