This spring, The pretty cherry blossom makeup new looks
Cherry blossom time is here all over the world. From a plant view, the flowers are blooming. The deer are really enjoying it.
From a makeup point of view, those soft flowers have been blooming and will probably keep blooming even after real cherry blossoms fall. If you’ve ever used a light pink cream blush on your cheeks, lips, or eyes, you know what I mean.
Find out everything about this spring’s “Cherry Blossom” makeup trend, including the products you can use to create this pretty look yourself.
As summer gets closer, there are many fun things to look forward to like hot weather, lots of sunny days, and trips to the beach. But before all that starts, we get to enjoy Sakura season, which happens at the end of spring.
Cherry blossoms, called sakura, are Japan’s special flower, and they have a big festival in Tokyo to celebrate the start of spring. They bloom in many places around the world in April and May.
The pink flowers stand for hope and how life can be short and beautiful. People also use cherry blossoms in movies, songs, and even in makeup ideas, making them a fun and pretty inspiration.
1. A Smudged Pink Lip
If you like the pretty pink color of cherry blossoms but want to keep it simple, try putting a pink lipstick on your lips. Make your lips a little bigger than usual by coloring outside the lines and blending it well so your lips stand out more.
2. Dewy Eyeshadow
To make your look even more eye-catching, add shiny lips and a glow to your face along with bold eyeshadow.
3. Flushed Monochromatic
Wearing only one color can seem scary at first, but it’s really simple with just a few makeup items. The trick is to choose products that can be used for many things, like blush, eyeshadow, and lipstick, all in the same shade.
About Cherry Blossom Makeup
Cherry Blossom makeup is when you put a soft baby pink color all over your face, kind of like cherry blossoms blooming in the sky. It matches the light pink “Ballet Slipper” lips that were popular this winter, but it also includes the colors on your eyes and cheeks.
A little bit of sparkle can help show the pink and white flowers moving in the wind, but it’s not needed. A good word to describe it is “milky,” and a helpful color example is the Starbucks Pink Drink, besides real cherry blossoms.
Where You’ve Seen It
Cherry Blossom makeup was showing up on our Instagram pages long before spring really started, and now that it’s getting warmer (kind of), this look fits perfectly with how we like to get ready naturally.
Kiernan Shipka wore it to the Vanity Fair Oscars party with a beautiful gown covered in 3D cherry blossoms from Rodarte. Leah Kateb picked it for the premiere of The Drama. Chase Infiniti also likes it a lot. (People are talking about her lavender Oscars dress, but she also likes a gentle pink!).
Sparkly Cut Crease
Sparkly glitter makes everything more fun, and a cut crease is no different. Put a little eyelash glue on each piece of glitter, then carefully place them in a line going up, making sure the glitter stays inside the cut crease to make a shiny and fun look.
Subtle Pink Tones
If you don’t really love pink but want to use it in your makeup, try using soft pink colors instead of making pink the main color.
Even though it was filmed in the British countryside, which has more wildflowers than cherry blossom trees, Charlotte Tilbury’s new “In Bloom” campaign matches the current trend. The Glinda products in R.e.m.’s Wicked: For Good collection also used lots of flower pictures.
Ariana Grande said to Byrdie that she puts these on her cheeks, uses them as eyeshadow, and puts them all over her face! She was talking about her Cherry Blossom Blush Palette.
