Spring Beauty Trends Forecast

Dive into a world of bold and bright hues, where every look is designed to uplift your mood and celebrate the essence of spring.

As a new season edges closer, a new era of beauty trends beckons. This Spring-Summer, beauty trends are taking cues from the vivid hues of nostalgic child’s play, sun-drenched sunsets, and the sparkle of warm-weather revelry. Ready to refresh your beauty game? Join us as we uncover the top beauty looks that we’re predicting to trend over the season ahead.

1. Punchy pigments
Get playful with your make up look by adding an electrifying splash of colour across your eye. The key to pulling off this look is to keep the rest of your face simple and natural, while allowing your statement eye to take centre-stage. We love the vibrant eye shadow palettes that have landed in store at Priceline, including the Revolution Forever Flawless Bird of Paradise Palette and the Barry M Neon Brights Eyeshadow Palette. You could also experiment with the coloured liners available in La Cosmetique. After all, life’s too short to keep it subdued, right?

2. Cloud skin
If you’re yet to be initiated with this TikTok-fuelled trend, we’re here to fill you in. While dewy-finish skin is still in, we’re now seeing a rise in ‘Cloud skin’; a skin finish that finds a perfect balance between matte and glow. Equal parts velvety and blurred, this look is all about starting with a moisturised base, before layering with a liquid foundation and finishing with powder to achieve a perfect soft matte finish. To achieve this look, head to Priceline to pick up some Blue Light Defence Prep Moisturiser with SPF 50+ by The Quick Flick, L'Oreal Infallible Liquid Foundation, and Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Powder.

3. Sunset cheeks
For that lit-from-within glow, you’ll certainly want to give this trend a try. The sunset skin trend takes cues from the warm colours of the sunset to inspire your blush and highlighter look. After completing your foundation base, start by applying a pigmented rosy-hued cream blush right below your cheekbones, before layering a peachy-hued highlight right upon your cheekbone. For these two steps, we love the MCoBeauty Highlight and Glow Beauty wands from Woolworths. First, use the shade Pink Glow. Then, to finish the sunset, use the shade Champagne. Blend to melt the colours together—and voila! You’ve created the perfect sunset-inspired finish full of glow.

4. High-impact lips
Nothing adds punch quite like a high-impact lip! For an instant hit of vibrancy, simply swipe on a bold lip colour. A deep, classic red is back this season—and the team at La Cosmetique will be sure to help you find the perfect shade to complement your skin tone. We recommend starting with a lipliner (we love the Peripera), before adding your lipstick, then finishing with a lip oil from Spa Moment.

5. Bejewelled
Ready to make the whole place shimmer, Taylor Swift style? Make it sparkle with a glittering nail polish manicure, using the Sinful Colors Professional Nail Polish in the shade Queen of Beauty from Big W or by heading into visit the team at Nails Avenue. For a glittering night-time or festival look, add some rhinestones around your eye makeup with the Assorted Rhinestone Pack from Kmart. If you’re heading to a summer music festival or concert, pump up the fun-factor with ‘90s-inspired body glitter from Barry M, stocked at Priceline.
