Lucky colour: Bright blue

If you’ve been reaching for the same eyeshadow shades over the past few months, you may want to opt for something more daring this month. And what screams daring more than a baby blue eyeshadow shade?

Try the Nars Single Eye Shadow – Matte Finish in Baby Jane, $33. This versatile colour can be used for a blue smoky eye: just pop this light blue on your inner corners and blend a dark navy shade on your crease with a fluffy brush (here's our guide on how to clean your brushes and sponges) to keep with the blue theme. Alternatively, try wetting your brush and applying it all over your lid for a pop of colour that stays on all day – it’ll keep you looking awake and you definitely won’t be feeling blue.

Lucky Colour: Rich earthy red

Over the years, lipstick trends have come and gone: there was a point when orangey coral lips were all the rave; and remember when everyone couldn’t stop talking about blue lipstick? Well, all we know is that red lipstick is a classic and will never go out of style.

Our pick is definitely the Make Up For Ever Artist Rouge Lipstick in Creamy Stage Red, $35, it’s the perfect red that fits any skintone. Formulated to be long-lasting and intensely pigmented, this lippie will glide onto your lips effortlessly without you having to worry about mid-day touch-ups.

Lucky Colour: Light red

March is a lucky month for those Geminis looking to find love, and what better way to celebrate than a classy red lip? We know how some reds may be too bright and out there, so we opted for a lighter red, a shade that can be worn everyday at work but also fits the bill for a date.

Try the Mac Cosmetics Versicolour Varnish Cream Lip Stain, $39 – it has a watery-light formula that makes your lips feel hydrated throughout the day. Plus, it has a little bit of shine so you don’t have to top it all off with a lip gloss.

Lucky Colour: Jean blue

If your everyday liner shade is a matte black, this month may be the best time to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. And don’t worry, we’re not talking about bright pink or neon green. Try the Dior Diorshow Onstage Liner in Matte Blue, $50, it’s a navy shade that attracts just the right amount of attention without being too out there. Plus, it’s the kind of shade that pairs perfectly with any outfit, casual or glam.

This liner (check out the affordable liners that won't smudge on oily eyelids here) has a flexible felt tip that effortlessly glides on your lids, making it the perfect starter liner for beginners. If you’re game, pair it with a shimmery blue eyeshadow make the eyes the star of the show.

Lucky Colour: Sky blue

This month may be slightly more stressful for Leos, and since we’re looking to combat any acne caused by stress, the Herbivore Botanicals Mini True Blue Skin Clarifying Duo, $36, should probably be on your to-buy list.

This set is perfect for those who want to incorporate their lucky colour into their beauty routine but aren’t ready to dip their toes into blue eyeshadow just yet. The duo consists of the Blue Tansy Resurfacing Clarity Mask (14ml) and the Lapis Balancing Facial Oil (8ml) – a matchmade in heaven to promote clear and radiant skin. Plus, it contains jojoba seed oil to help reduce the appearance of redness, so your complexion remains glowy and youthful.

Lucky Colour: Blueish white

If you’re a Virgo, it’d be hard to incorporate a blueish white shade into your makeup routine. So, we found an easy way to ensure your lucky colour stays with you all month: check out the Nails Inc. Fashion Fix Nail Polish in the shade Pur Lease, $22.

Since this polish is full coverage, you’ll only have to apply 1 coat (2 coats, if you want extra opacity) to your nails. This long-lasting polish shade (here's how SQ girls take care of their nails) is also super versatile and goes with any outfit ensemble.

Lucky Colour: Orangey red

Contoured and chiseled cheeks are definitely in this season. But instead of going for your usual pink blush, why not opt for a blush with orange hues?

We’re in love with the Nars Blush in Burnished Apricot, $52, it’s a perfect shade for glam date nights out. Plus, it could also double up as a contour – just make sure you apply it with a light hand as this formula’s known for being pigmented.

Lucky Colour: Soft white

Considering March will be a busy month for Scorpios, you may find yourself rushing through your nightly skincare routine. Just remember to make a conscious effort to keep to your beauty regiment and your skin is sure to thank you for that.

Cleansers and moisturisers (here are the best lightweight gel moisturisers) are always thought to be important in skincare, but don’t miss out on toners too. Our pick is the Laneige White Dew Skin Refiner, $45, a lightweight toner that helps even out skintone to reveal a brighter and radiant complexion.

Lucky Colour: Soil brown

Everyone loves wearing eyeliner. It gives our eyes definition and shows we mean business. But we know that a matte black liner can sometimes be too heavy, especially if we’re going for a girly, laidback look.

Try the Givenchy Phenomen’eyes Liner in Bright Bronze, $48 – it’s a pigmented brush-tip liner in a classy brown shade that works for causal days out. Its formulated to be long-lasting and water resistant, so you won’t have to worry about throwing it into your purse for a midday touch-up.

Lucky Colour: Dark red

March is looking to be a fruitful month for Capricorns, especially when it comes to romance. So, if you’ve got a big date coming up and are looking to impress, get all glammed up with the Stila Shimmer & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow in Pigalle, $38.

This vivid red shade is formulated to be long-wearing and packs a ton of shimmer, so you’ll look picture perfect all night. For a less dramatic look, use your finger to apply the eyeshadow and blend it in with other shades. Otherwise, apply the wand directly to your lids and use a fluffy brush to blend out the harsh lines.

Lucky Colour: Woody brown

Thick, fluffy brows are all the rave these days, and we’re totally on board with this trend. If you’re an Aquarius, add the Benefit Cosmetics Brow Styler Multitasking Pencil & Powder for Brows in Shade 3, $60, to cart.

It’s the perfect brow product to achieve full yet natural-looking brows. There’s a powder for soft and full brows on one side, and a wax pencil for clean and defined brows on the other. Tip: achieve feathered brows by using the wax pencil to draw diagonal stokes to mimic real brow hairs.

The Tarte Rainforest of the Sea H2O Lip Gloss in Oasis (Blue Holographic), $32, is a shimmery gloss that has a hint of blue that’ll give your lips a luscious look.
