Makeup is a form of self-expression—that's why it's constantly changing and evolving, and this spring/summer season is no exception. Styles are being revamped, and some trends are even becoming something of a creative experiment in which you just have to have an open mind and be willing to explore something new. This spring's upcoming trends can only be described in two words: fun and risky. Both concepts have come together in a variety of combinations and proposals you can experiment with this spring.
So get ready to welcome in these 7 head-turning trends that will complement that knock-'em-dead outfit you've been anxious to put on!:

Lili Aldridge gave us the new double cat eye proposal in which the traditional and the innovative come together with a spectacular result, highlighted in neon pink. Make sure to draw a clear double outline so that it draws the most attention possible, and accent the effect even more with glittery shadow covering the whole eyelid. Simple and trendy!

The '90s are back with their dark velvety lips. Hailee Steinfeld shows us a perfect example of one of the trends you're going to see this spring/summer season. Opt for dark browns, wine reds, and even black if you want to be completely original.

Who doesn't have at least one red lipstick in their collection? Although its lost some territory recently to the nude trend, this spring red shades are roaring back with a vengeance! Model Sara Sampaio is a good example of this. Go for cherry red with a matte finish and similarly eye-catching shades. The advantage of having a really good red lipstick shade is that it elevates your look and brightens your face in one simple step.

If you're passionate about color, then we've got the makeup trend for you! Kylie Jenner loves this very creative neon trend, in which there are no limits to which colors you can mix and match. Play around with different shades on your entire eyelid, and then look for a completely different, contrasting color for your lower waterline to give your makeup that artistic finish that's sure to reflect your individual personality.

If you enjoyed the completely matte black smokey eye look of the '90s, then you'll love this souped-up modern version with a glossy finish. Karlie Kloss wowed us with this smokey eye look in purple shades with a metallic finish, which is usually very flattering on just about any skin tone. Ready to try it for yourself?

Something that began as a more modest trend with simple touches near the tear duct area has turned into full-blown artistic expression.
Gigi Hadid
demonstrates the next logical step by combining this look with the oh-so-fashionable two-tone trend. With all these options in front of you, do you know how many of these you'll be wearing this season?
