What palette is in fashion
If a girl wants a bright evening decorative make-up, then there are several trends that are worth taking note of.
Yellow. One of the main colors of 2022. Bright, juicy, it was created for the holiday. Great option for eye makeup. It can be used all over the eyelid (be sure to apply a light cream base first) or as an accent. Bright arrows, for example, perfectly emphasize your individuality and originality of the image. The trend is both matte yellow and radiant textures, which are just right for the evening.
Gray. This is the second main color of the season. And by the way, the best companion of yellow. Therefore, feel free to experiment, these two colors will look perfect together. Well, if you prefer a more relaxed make-up, then use any gray shade that suits you. Among all the shades of this noble color, you will definitely find yours. The trend is also metallic gray and silver highlights.
Green. Green is one of the main colors of this season. Feel free to use it in your makeup. All shades of green are in trend – from deep emerald to calm olive. Green shades look great with gold and beige tones. A bright and at the same time sophisticated option will be a green tint eyeliner. Emphasize in the form of a colored arrow or bring the mucous membrane – any decision will be winning.
Pink. Pink shades this season are at the peak of popularity, however, this is not the first season. And such a girlish color is just right for the prom. Monochrome makeup in pink tones deserves special attention. Use eye shadow, blush, and lipstick in the same shade of pink to make your makeup look harmonious. For a more interesting effect, you can put highlights with glitter or other shining textures at the outer corners of the eyes or in the middle of the eyelids.
Neon colors. Neon makeup is one of the main trends of this season.
If your graduation look is distinguished by its extravagance, then the same unusual makeup is perfect for you. It can be neon shadows or eyeliner – the choice is yours. In any case, with such a make-up, you will definitely be in the spotlight.
Glitter on the face. Glitter in makeup is more popular than ever. And not only on the eyes and lips, but on the face. This option may be the only accent in prom makeup. Just paint thick eyelashes, emphasize eyebrows and apply a scattering of glitter on the cheekbones. On the lips it is better to apply a translucent gloss. If using glitter on your face is not to your liking, then focus on the eyes by casually applying them to the eyelids.
Important nuances
Arrows – double (two-color), fantasy or just very active. Colored and shining arrows are also in fashion.
And you can also add such a delicate element as small false eyelashes – they will decorate natural makeup. A very fresh face, a minimum of lip gloss, a highlighter on the cheekbones and fluffy eyelashes.
Pomade – shining. Matte is no longer as relevant as it used to be. And for such a special occasion as graduation, it is all the more worth paying attention to fashion options: gloss or lipstick with a lacquer finish that is relevant today.
Mascara. Black is a timeless classic. However, this season, colored mascara will look fresh and stylish. One option: a neutral prom makeup with an accent on the cilia in the form of a color nuance of green, purple or blue.
Eyebrows. Natural but well cared for. No geometric definition. Neatly brushed with gel. Natural shades. Color saturation can be adjusted according to the brightness of the eye and lip makeup.
