We're calling it now–spring is the season for bold beauty looks. First, we saw the early hints of neon on the spring/summer runways (Versace's racing stripes, hot pink shadow at Prabal Gurung), but when Euphoria returned to HBO for its second season, the proverbial beauty groundhog saw his shadow, declaring a season of sparkles, blush, and metallics for all.

Makeup artist Allan Avendaño is feeling it, too—and he's breaking down the best 2022 makeup trends that he's created on clients like Vanessa Hudgens, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Rachel Zegler. Save for your mood boards.

METALLIC MAKEUP

"Metallics are going to be huge year-round. Brands have developed some gag-worthy metallic products that really amp up your look without you having to be a pro. For example, Danessa Myricks Twin Flames Liquid Eyeshadow and Infinite Chrome Flakes have such impact with the ease of just tapping it on your lids and letting it dry."

CONTOUR AND LIFT WITH BLUSH

"Draped blush brings me back to the '80s—it's all about applying blush all the way up to the temples. Blush really brings the face to life and draping that color through your temples, cheekbones, and apples of your cheeks lifts and frames the face. Whether it’s a liquid or cream blush, start off light and build—and make sure to blend and blend!"

GLITTER AND GLOSS

"Plump and juicy lips are the look of the season when not in your mask—and what better companion to a glossy lip than a glittery eye. Embellishments and eye-catching glitter are all the rage and Season 2 of Euphoria just cemented this into trends for Spring 2022. Apply Tower 28 clear or milky glosses and pair it with Smith and Cult’s Glitter Shot Face and Body Glitter for a sparkling look everyone will be in awe of."

MONOCHROMATIC MOODS

"A lot of my clients want to look alive while running errands or seeing friends but don't want something fussy. The usual colors you’ll find in Spring colors palettes [will] become prominent again—peach, coral, pink, soft terracotta, and sheer reds. One way to create easy monochromatic looks is to use the same product on eyes, cheeks, and lips. For example, the INC.redible Three Love Lip Cheek and Eye Tint Stick or Live Tinted Huesticks are beautiful low maintenance, easy to apply products that give you a beautifully flushed complexion and just-bitten lips… and all you need are your fingers if you’re in a rush."

SUN-KISSED SKIN AND FRECKLES

"Gone are the days of people hating and wanting to get rid of their freckles. Sun-kissed skin and freckles look so beautiful and these days, many people are resorting to darkening or adding freckles to their face. Giving yourself an overall bronze glow to your skin is a breeze with Chanel's Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream. Top it off with Freck OG or Noir for the most natural-looking freckles."
