One of my favourite posts is keeping you all up to date with the top make-up trends each season and it looks like you all take quite an interest in this section also.
Before each season begins I like to post this so that you are all prepared and beat everyone else before the trends begin ;)
I have got 2 Sections to this post as I have done my main research for the MAC Trend Report for Spring/Summer 15 which also falls into place with the Runway Trend Report that is contained in all the fashion magazines which is what my second section will contain.
So we have 4 main trends from MAC -
1. RE-VIEW
2. ENLIGHTENED
3. FREE
PARTY
4. NO-MAKEUP
RE-VIEW
Focussed all on the eyeliner with multiple
ways to wear it to draw attention to the eyes.
Eyeliner was either painted looking, as if you have used your fingers or the complete opposite of harsh graphic lines giving a more futuristic look.
All about changing the classic flicked liner to a more biker rough look.
Not only was the liner confined to the lash line it was also sculped through the socket like using a sharpie pen.

Not only was the liner confined to the lash line it was also sculped through the socket like using a sharpie pen.
The lashes were big, bold and clump. Even
colour for the doll-eye effect either bare or paired with glossy shiny lids.
As bold as the eyeliner the lashes played
a major part so this trend is all about the eyes.
The lashes were mainly cut into chunks and applied in sections to enhance certain parts of the eye.
Black, browns and teals were mainly used on the lashes.

The eye shadow used for this
trend was blown out with burred edges. Soft taupe and warm browns were used to
give this trend a massive 70s feel.
ENLIGHTENED
Enlightened is all about flawless skin
with less coverage to show the real skins shine for maximum radiance as well as
using highlighters to enhance the natural shine.
They use maximum brightness with pigments and gloss but steered away from the extreme contouring from the past season.

Less coverage but more clever concealing
being very precise when applying. Gaining points from the skin almost looking
plastic.
The final goal was to give a dewy, holographic, luminous, porcelain effect more than sun-kissed tan.
White was used and mixed with the base for the skin and also through the lashes.

This look was also teamed up
with a bold lip. A ruby red and mirror finish clear gloss.
FREE PARTY
Spring/Summer is known for the festival
fun vibed make-up looks, the only time of year that goes abit out of the box.
Mixing and matching like the fashion trends.
Saturated colours that have been washed out and bleached by the sun using a smudged effect as nothing is structured in any way.
All about mixing fruity colours like lime and watermelon that gives a effortless, playful, young look ending with a candy popping lip.

Freckles also make a huge come back which
goes perfectly with with the flawless sun-kissed finished skin. Sequins were
also adorned on the face to reflect light.
The ‘No Make-up’ trend comes around time
after time each season but this time it has a little difference that makes this
season top the rest.
The no-makeup look always tends to require more time and attention to get everything precise to achieve that natural, glowing and well contoured skin.
Brows are again given the time so that each strand is well groomed and that the shape suits your face shape as well as setting them so they stay in place at all times.

So overall the trend includes immaculate
looking skin, well grommed brows, chissled contoured face, naturally defined crease, splattering of
honey freckles and a natural lip colour.
A look to enhance your beauty and not to
change it.
