Refreshing Spring Beauty Trends

Annabella Pardo

Spring 2022 is all about refreshing and rejuvenating ourselves. Skincare and health is of the utmost importance for us to shine as bright as the sun this year. We’ve listed our favorite beauty products this season to give us our most glowing self.

Thrive Causemetics just launched the Sunproof 3-in-1 Invisible Priming Sunscreen with SPF 37. This is the ultimate versatile primer that transforms skin into the ideal canvas for makeup (or just velvety skin on its own) that won't budge for up to 16 hours. Protect, hydrate, smooth and shield skin from UVA + UVB rays with SPF 37, while at the same time creating a water-resistant and velvet-matte finish that deeply moisturizes skin. Always infused with skin-loving ingredients and 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Best of all the product is clear and blends into all skin tones evenly with no residue.

Short hair is timeless and this year jaw length bob and Bixie (combo of bob and pixie) are the it-cut. Making sure to always start my style with Pureology Colorfanatic 21- Benefit Multitasking Spray. It’s a lightweight leave-in conditioner that primes the hair with heat protection and lightweight nourishment at the same time.

2022 is all about warming up the hair color! Warm tones are in creating a high-end luxury look and feel to your image. When you think of warm tones, think buttery, butterscotch, cinnamon, roasted almond, and warm coffee bean. One of my favorites is the Luxurious rich browns, which add a dimension of depth to the hair. Keeping the look fresh and vibrant I recommend Pureology’s Strengthcure Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner. The purple toning properties will counteract any unwanted brassy tones that happen over time with fading

Powergloss is restorative hair and scalp treatment designed to use while you do. Their unique formula goes on dry hair to create overall hair health by repairing, moisturizing, balancing pH, and thickening from root to tip with organic ingredients. When used regularly for an extended period of time, our blend of castor, rosehip, rosemary, and lavender oils stimulates and nourishes the scalp while creating a healthy environment for hair to grow, resulting in improved hair thickness and strength.

  • Antioxidant Protection: This new technology combines an exclusive 12 hour release antioxidant complex which is packed with Vitamins A, C and E as a first line of defense against neutralizing free radicals. A powerful combinations of hydration, cell renewing and anti-aging technology, this IAOX serum will have your skin feeling refreshed.

  • Fights “Inflammaging”: Research has shown that chronic inflammation is the top cause of aging. Unlike acute skin inflammation – that stimulates the body’s innate immune response to protect + repair itself – chronic inflammation exhausts skin’s defensive and regenerative capability resulting in damage known as “inflammaging.” Visual signs of inflammaging include dehydration, dullness, uneven tone and premature lines + wrinkles.

  • Ultra Lightweight Hydration - With cicro-minerals and weightless hydrating power, this product instantly revives complexion with youthful luminosity and glow.

SilcSkin offers non-invasive methods of fighting wrinkles. When applied to the skin, electrostatic energy provided by the pads eliminates wrinkles by improving the irregular collagen structure and creating an increased blood flow, which will result in an improved skin tone and plumped wrinkles. Silicone contributes to moisturizing the skin by drawing the skin’s natural moisture to the surface, which hydrates the skin.

BeeSpa is an incredible all-natural skin cream designed to relieve dry, cracked skin quickly and naturally. Carefully crafted with 16% beeswax, BeeSpa products carry anti-inflammatory properties, and work to moisturize all skin - no matter how dry!

Grüner's Evening Ritual Oil is the perfect overnight oil. A single application to address dehydration and the signs of aging.

Their thesis for the design of this product is simple: A fast-absorbing facial oil with the antioxidant profile of pure virgin marula oil, and the skin restorative benefits of vitamin A and ceramides, without any essential oils or fragrances.
