12 Birthstone-Inspired Beauty Looks That You’ll Enjoy Way More Than Your Horoscope

Posted in Makeup By Sable Yong

The Zodiac is about as mercurial as the weather, with all of us taking cosmic cover every time mercury goes into goddamn retrograde. Whether you buy into them or not, it can get annoying to get pigeonholed into your sun/moon/rising signs’ behavioral traits (doubly if you don’t buy into them). Let’s not forget about our other divine categorical assignments—birthstones. Okay, if you’re not a horoscope person you may not be a spirituality-through-crystals person either, but everyone can appreciate and draw inspiration from a beautiful gemstone, even if you just like wearing them.

No mere baubles, birthstones are said to grant the wearer special powers and enhance the attributes of each star sign. But if you can’t bleed out your savings account to surround yourself in sapphires or rubies, you can at least incorporate them into your beauty looks. Not sure how? We went ahead and did it for you.
