Makeup Trends and Education at Aurelio Salon & Spa in Howell, NJ
At Aurelio Salon & Spa in Howell, NJ, ongoing education is a core part of how our team operates. We regularly bring in professional training and industry education to stay current on the latest techniques in both hair and makeup — and we love sharing what we learn with our guests.
Strobing: A Highlight-Forward Technique
One of the runway trends that has made its way into everyday makeup routines is strobing — a contra-contour technique that focuses on highlighting rather than deepening or shading. Instead of using darker shades to create structure, strobing concentrates on strategically placed highlighter to create a pearlescent, luminous glow. The result is a face that looks refreshed, bright, and naturally youthful. It’s a softer, more modern approach to facial definition that works especially well in natural light.
Bold Eyes with a Soft Lip
The second major trend that has been seen consistently on the runway is the bold eye paired with a soft, understated lip. Deep jewel tones — evergreen, navy, rich plum — applied to the eyelid create a striking, high-impact look, while a light pink or nude lip keeps the overall look balanced. This combination allows the eye to be the focal point without the look feeling overdone. It’s a versatile approach that works for both daytime and evening.
