Whereas changing up your look with a new haircut or colour requires a trip to the hair salon (or at least the store to get the right supplies), experimenting with makeup is a lot easier. This summer, there are plenty of makeup trends [1] to play with — the hard part is picking which one you're going to try first. That is, unless you let your zodiac sign decide [2] your perfect summer makeup look for you.
From out-of-this-world eyeliner designs, like the "reverse" [3] and double-wing trend [4], to summer classics like no-makeup makeup and dewy skin, finding your summer makeup look for date night, an outing with friends, or just hanging around the house is easy with the stars as your guide. Versatile Geminis will love two-toned eyeshadow, while go-with-the-flow Sagittariuses will feel most comfortable in faux freckles, and standout Leos will thrive in the inner-corner pop makeup trend.
Find the summer makeup trend that best suits you based on your zodiac sign ahead.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Dewy Skin Makeup Trend
As a Capricorn, you probably like everything to be orderly and clean, making a fresh-faced, dewy skin makeup look your perfect match.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Double-Wing Eyeliner Makeup Trend
Aquariuses thrive when they're feeling creative. A makeup look that's completely original to you will put a smile on your face, so try hopping on the double-wing eyeliner trend [5]. By incorporating different colours you'll have an eye-catching look in a flash.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Soap Brows Makeup Trend
A Pisces's imagination is unmatched. You don't like being tied to one idea or thing, so a subtle yet bold makeup trend, like soap brows, is a good fit because you can wear the look alone or combine it with other trends.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Confetti Eyeliner Makeup Trend
As an Aries, you're not afraid to stand out and make a statement. That's why the bright and colourful confetti eyeliner makeup [6] trend is a fit for you.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Reverse Eyeliner Makeup Trend
As a Taurus, you're probably more low-key with beauty. You like to experiment but don't like changing up your signature look too much. The reverse eyeliner trend [7], which involves only wearing coloured liner on your bottom lash line, suits you best.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Two-Toned Eyeshadow Makeup Trend
As a versatile person with many different sides, you'll feel right at home wearing the two-toned eyeshadow makeup trend this summer. The look, which features different complementary eyeshadow shades on each eye, is perfect for a Gemini.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Monochromatic Makeup Trend
No other makeup looks says Cancer quite like the monochromatic makeup trend. This romantic, matchy-matchy beauty vibe is one you'll fall in love with again and again.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Inner Corner Pop Makeup Trend
A Leo will feel perfectly comfortable standing out in the inner corner pop makeup trend. No matter what bright colour you use, this look will have all eyes on your eyes.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): No-Makeup Makeup Trend
Virgos are the ultimate perfectionists, meaning you need a makeup look that you can nail every time. The idea of making a graphic eyeliner look even on both sides probably makes you shudder. The classic, clean, no-makeup makeup look will allow you to get on with your other to-dos and ideas.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Bat Wing Eyeliner Makeup Trend
As a Libra, you probably enjoy being adventurous just as much as you love sitting at home by yourself rewatching the same show again and again. The bat wing eyeliner trend [8] is perfect for you because it looks both abstract (when the eye is shut) and classic (when the eye is open).
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): '90s Supermodel Lip Makeup Trend
A cool Scorpio like yourself needs a makeup look that grabs attention without looking like you tried too hard, which perfectly sums up the nostalgic '90s supermodel lip liner trend [9].
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Faux Freckles Makeup Trend
Sagittarians go with the flow and feel most like themselves when they're not too done up. The faux freckle makeup trend is as laidback and breezy as it gets.
