We might consult the stars for news about our love lives, but beauty trends? Who would’ve thought! Tali Edut of The AstroTwins has suggestions for what to try this spring based on your zodiac sign.
Aries
The universe’s fiery sign, born between March 21 and April 19, should get into spring’s reddish, orange lipstick trend, suggests Edut. We love this dual-sided pick, perfect for amping up your sizzle as needed.

“Paint your nails a shade to match your sign’s intensity, like a deep plum or a fire engine red,” says Edut. We love a blending of the two, like this dark rusty color.

Taurus
“You’re earthy and sophisticated, so a fresh-faced, neutral look works well on you,” Edut says for birthdays between April 20 and May 20. Shadows in tans, coppers, and champagne are divine and come paired together in convenient palettes.

When it comes to trends, Edut suggests following the lead of fellow Taurus Adele and trying a sassy retro beehive. “It’ll show off your neck and shoulders, the body parts that the sign of Taurus rules.”

Gemini
“Known for a two-sided personality, the best makeup equation for this sign is a mix of dark and lights,” explains Edut. Born between May 21 and June 20? Mimic sign sister Angelina Jolie and try dark eyes with a pale pink lipstick. This one looks cotton candy opaque, but goes on a gorgeous petal color.

And when it comes to trends? “Your electric bright personality deserves to be highlighted, and since your sign rules the hands, where better to focus than your nails?” Edut asks. “The neon manicure was made for you!”

Cancer
“Feminine allure is the Cancer woman’s calling card, especially if you add a babydoll twist to it,” says Edut. According to her, the beauty of those born between June 21 and July 22 will really be emphasized with a dainty pink blush.

“The eyes are the window to your soul, but you don’t want everyone peeping into your private universe!” Keep ’em guessing at your motives and flirt away with apply-as-you-like individual lashes.

Leo
Lion ladies born between July 23 and August 22 should update their makeup bag with something metallic. “Your sunshine personality is pure gold so sparkly, glitter picks are totally you,” says Edut. Use this metallic cream shadow all over the lid or concentrate it just on your lashline.

“As a standout star, you live to be original,” says Edut, who says crafting a custom perfume is your ultimate beauty indulgence. If budget won’t allow it, try the next best thing: Cavalli’s new delicious spritz, made with orange blossoms and tonka beans. “The legendary Coco Chanel was a Leo, and she understood the power of a beautiful scent to leave a lingering impression.”

Virgo
“Cozy and seductive, you have an earth goddess charm like fellow Virgo Beyoncé,” Edut says about women born between August 23 and September 22. Capture it with warm bronze colors, like this multi-purpose pick. The golden hue doubles as a aluminizing highlighter and cheek tint.

The stars are to fault for your love of all things clean! “As the zodiac’s purist, clear skin is the foundation for your radiance,” explains Edut. She suggests Virgo women invest in a powerful face scrubbing brush or microdermabrasion treatments.

Libra
“Candy bright hues match your sweet personality, and your makeup bag might look like a confectioner’s fantasy!” says Edut about women born between September 22 and October 23. Try a pop of color on your lips with a shade that’s just a little out of the ordinary. “You’re the universe’s ultimate glamour girl. Toned down hues will never do!”

This star sign knows it’s all about the lips, and picking up a hydrating lip balm or potion is a wise move. “Like a sexy pinup girl, your pout is legendary. Keep your pucker as bright and beautiful as fellow Libra Kim Kardashian’s with a lip serum or SPF product,” says Edut.

Scorpio
Edut says that Scorpio Demi Moore is a perfect example of why those born between October 23 and November 21 should learn how to nail a smoky eye. “As the naturally seductive and mysterious sign, this look was made for you.” If you’re intimidated by the how-to, pick up this smartly labeled brush set for easy sailing.

And on days you’re not doing smoky? “A cat-eye is an appropriately minx-y look, too,” says Edut. Pick up a pot of jet black gel eyeliner and apply with an angled brush.

Sagittarius
“The happy-go-lucky Sagittarius loves to taste the rainbow and can pull off wild colors better than anyone else,” Edut says of ladies born between November 22 and December 21. Make the bright color trend approachable with an electric liner.

Neutral nails aren’t for you, missy! “Sagittarius nails can go bright in any shade, but steer clear of decals to avoid the pitfalls of sign-mate Snooki.”

Capricorn
“You ambitious professional life demands that you keep your makeup classy, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add a little sparkle,” Edut says to all those born between December 22 and January 19. Make the trend work for the boardroom by picking up an eye shadow in a coppery bronze or shimmery nude like this Burberry shade.

When it comes to your mane, “sleek and chic is the look for you.” Edut recommends copying fellow Sag Zooey Deschanel’s sleek strands by investing in a luxe straightener.

Aquarius
For those born between January 20 and February 18, let your beauty inspiration be star sister Lauren Conrad. “Active Aquarius is a no muss, no fuss sign. When it comes to your face, opt for pretty, natural colors like rose-tinted lips.” When you’re wearing sheer tints like this one, let the drama go to your nails. Edut reminded us that Miss L.C. was one of the first to adopt midnight-hued manis back when it still felt goth.

What’s your spring makeup bag must-have? “There’s a laid-back surfer girl living inside of you,” says Edut, so make sure to fake a beauty glow with a good bronzer. This all-over body pick has a luminizer and non-perma color that’ll wash off in the shower.
