Bright pastels and heavy humidity have officially arrived with Houston’s spring. The Spring/Summer 2022 shows from September’s past also foreshadowed the season’s beauty trends, which are an ode to the early 2000s. Models strutted down the runway with slicked-back strands and a middle part press, however, makeup, carried the trendy load.

Major moments from shows like Versace, Kim Shui and Chloe featured models with holographic shadows and striking liner, varying from electric blues to eye-catching oranges, which launched an outfit from cute to a statement look. Along with captivating eyes comes the viral cheeky contoured blush catapulted by Anna Sui’s spring runway show.

Glam arguably wouldn’t be complete without a mesmerizing lip to tie the face together, and spotted down the runways of Acne Studio and Michael Kors were bold yet mesmerizing lips. From florid crimson to a glossy nude pout, spring returns its playful essence with makeup. 

Although soft glam and neutrals will carry throughout the year, spring is arguably the one season to surpass safe glam and create editorial-esque looks. With fashion heading into a maximalism direction, beauty is following suit. Lucid, drama and momentous now define the makeup looks of spring 2022.
