5 Pastel Makeup Looks to Try This Spring

There’s no better season to experiment with lively makeup looks than the springtime. There’s colorful inspiration everywhere, from blooming florals to baby blue skies and more. So it’s fitting that with the annual arrival of the warm season, pastel colors seem to weave their way back into the spotlight.

The good thing is, the pastel makeup trend is one that everyone can take part in. It’s up for interpretation and can be created according to your preferences and skill level. And if you’re looking for the perfect occasion to test out a pastel look, we can’t think of one more fitting than Easter. 

So ahead, we’re sharing five different takes on pastel makeup looks — from the most simple to ones that will test your artistry — to inspire your spring glam. 

1. Pastel Inner Corner Accents 

If you’re looking to dip your toe into the pastel universe without leaning into the bold makeup look territory, add a simple pop of pastel color to the inner corners of your eyes with a pencil eyeshadow brush. You can create this simple inner corner accent in combination with any makeup look, making it completely versatile and easy to achieve. 

For added brightness, opt for a shimmering pastel shade, like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible 24 HR Eye Shadow in Always Pearly Pink. 

2. Monochromatic Pastel 

Another easy-to-do pastel makeup look is applying one single wash of pastel color all over your lids and matching it with your blush and lip color. This minimalistic technique has been seen on recent runways and it’s incredibly chic without requiring much time or skill. 

If you’re opting for a monochrome makeup look in a peachy shade, go for the L’Oréal Paris Glow Paradise Balm-in-Lipstick with Pomegranate Extract in Peach Charm on your lips.
