12 Pastel Makeup Ideas Perfect for Easter and Beyond

Easter isn’t just about chocolate eggs and bunny hunts—it’s also the perfect time to experiment with vibrant pastel makeup looks. Whether you’re attending a family gathering, spending the day at brunch with friends, or simply enjoying the season, these makeup ideas will help you embrace the spirit of spring.

1. Periwinkle Lids: Swap your usual nude eyeshadow for a soft periwinkle shade. Achieve a watercolor-like effect by blending the color past your crease and adding a touch of highlighter to your inner corners.
2. Popsicle Lips: Achieve a juicy, just-bitten look by dabbing a pigmented lip stain onto the center of your lips and topping it with a high-shine gloss. Choose shades like coral or peach for a fresh, spring-inspired vibe.
3. Graphic Green Wing: Create a bold graphic winged look using a vivid green eyeliner pencil. Extend the line into a dramatic wing and add a touch of gold or silver eyeshadow to the inner corners of your eyes for an extra pop.
4. Stained Glass Blush: Use coordinating shades of blush to create a flushed and defined finish. Apply a lighter shade to the apples of your cheeks and a slightly darker shade along your cheekbones for a natural-looking contour.
5. Fresh-Faced Glow: Embrace glowing skin with sheer blush, rosy lips, and a lit-from-within glow. Mix a luminous primer or highlighter into your foundation for an extra radiant finish, and finish with a dewy setting spray to lock in moisture.
6. Floral Accents: Channel the freshly blooming garden outside your window by using eyeliner to draw miniature floral accents around your lids. Experiment with different flower shapes and colors for a fun and whimsical look.
7. Colorblocked Eyes: Experiment with bold colors like vibrant blue and green for a modern, color-blocked eye makeup look. Apply the brighter shade to your lid and the darker shade to your crease, blending gently to create a seamless transition.
8. Easter Glam: Go all-in with a full glam makeup look featuring soft spring colors like pinks, purples, blues, and greens. Add a touch of shimmer to your lids and cheeks for an extra festive touch.
9. Colorful Mascara: Make your lashes the star of the show with a vibrant colored mascara. Choose shades like blue, purple, or green to complement your eye color and make your lashes pop.
10. Mint Eyeshadow: Achieve a user-friendly pastel makeup look with mint eyeshadow, perfect for spring. Apply the shade all over your lid and blend upwards towards your brow bone for a soft, ethereal look.
11. Monochrome Pink: Create dimension with a monochrome pink makeup look using slightly different shades of coral eyeshadow, soft pink blush, and a pinkish-nude lip. Keep the rest of your makeup minimal to let the pink hues take center stage.
12. Colorful Highlighter: Put a seasonal spin on your no-makeup makeup look by swapping standard highlighter for a pastel hue. Apply it to your cupid’s bow, brow bones, and the top of your cheekbones for a subtle yet impactful glow.
