The Best Makeup Looks To Rock During Pisces Season
Pisces season (February 19 - March 20) is a dreamy, emotional, and romantic time. Those born under the astrological sign of Pisces are a Water sign represented by fish and ruled by the planet Neptune, god of the seas.
Those born under this sign tend to be creative, go-with-the-flow types who are romantic, intuitive, and highly emotional. But since Pisces season is especially intense, even those who aren’t natural-born fishies tend to experience a surge in Pisces traits during this time. Instead of resisting the onslaught of feels and emotions, embrace the season by wearing makeup to bring out your inner Pisces.
The best makeup for Pisces season includes ocean shades of blue and violet eyeshadow, ultra-hydrating foundations and hydrosols, and mermaid-inspired highlighter. Prepare to get dreamy and try out some of these sea goddess looks.
