As spring nears, you're probably already switching up your wardrobe to get rid of your winter apparel for some more appropriate seasonal attire. But just as we swap sweaters for tank tops, your beauty cabinet needs to go through a transformation, too.

To share some of her seasonal beauty predictions, Faith Xue, the Executive Beauty Director of Bustle Digital Group, recently stopped by TODAY with Hoda & Jenna. She revealed the spring trends to try this season, along with some suggested products you'll want to stock up on. You'll find juicy lip glosses to French manicure hacks, all the way to floral scents that will instantly remind you that the new season is finally here.

Keep reading to discover some of the biggest trends this season, plus products to test them out with.

Spring beauty trends:

Skin milks

"Milky skin care products are trending, replacing moisturizers and toners — they’re great for anyone who has dry and sensitive skin especially during winter," remarks Xue. "Some skin milks are made with actual milk ingredients like goat milk, which contains lactic acid and has a gentle exfoliating effect on the skin. Others just have a milky, creamy texture, so they’re [also] called skin milks."

Post-vacation glow products

"We used to rely on bronzers and self-tanners to look like we just got back from a beach vacation, but now there’s a new skin care product that instantly gives a glow and can be worn alone or layered under makeup." Case in point: Skin care-meets-makeup hybrids that enhance our skin's natural luminosity. "It’s not a bronzer, so can be used on all skin tones to add warmth."

New romantics makeup

"Makeup for spring is inspired by the looks you’d see in Marie Antoinette’s court in Versailles — petal-soft blush and soft, romantic details/pops of pink, plus bow accents in the hair," says Xue. "This is all about the color of the make up."

Body mists

"Body mists are back! But instead of the super-sweet/childish scents of the ‘90s (we all remember dousing ourselves with them in the mall), the newer body mists are sophisticated and grown-up — and might even boost your spirits," explains Xue. "Body mists have less oil and more water than perfumes, which make them lighter and easier to wear — you can spritz them after the gym, throughout the day [and] in your hair."

Hair plumper

"If you dream of having thicker hair and are too impatient or skeptical of hair vitamins, there’s now a quick fix: hair fillers!" suggests Xue. "Hair fillers add instant volume and density to the hair."

Micro-French manicure 

"Everything ‘90s is back, including the French mani as seen on celebs like Kendall Jenner — but the newer version features a micro-sized tip, barely visible," says Xue.
