We're getting colorful this year, and the defining factor of these high-impact makeup looks is the signature blurring aura effect. Rococo rosy blush, watercolor eyeshadow and fun eye pigments are all major trends of the moment, and the good news is, they're all fairly easy to achieve!
How to Get the Look
Whether you're creating a golden aura or a mood ring makeup look, the secret to these trends is all in your technique.
"In order to create a watercolor or aura effect, you need to heavily diffuse the shadow colors into each other, and the blush as well is key," explains Miami makeup artist Natalie Dresher. "Blending is very important for aura makeup."
For that you need to find your ideal formulas and the right tools for the job! For example, cream blushes are all the rage these days. But if you don't have the right blush, the product won't achieve that blurry wash of color we're looking for.
