SPRING MAKE UP TRENDS....get sprung!!!!

Hello Loves....spring has sprung for sure!!!! I love this time of the year, flowers and trees are all in bloom, we get to dust off our favorite lighter fabrics and shoes, get ready to start new projects and shed what may no longer be serving us....and for me I love to step into spring with bold brigth colors and fun new expressive make up. SO LIBERATING SO FUN!

TOP 5 TRENDING SPRING MAKE UP LOOKS:


 DEEP SANGRIA LIPS AND CHEEKS....I love this as I hate to give up my bold sophisticated deep looks of the fall and winter. By using creams and glosses you can still carry over the boldness of the color on to the cheeks and lips without so much heavy pigment. Pick a sheer deep color in a cream like texture to brush  along the cheek bones to get a dewy look with just the perfect hint of pigment. A sparkle deep gloss on the lip gives you the effect of bold color without the heavy feeling of lipstick and just enough hint of glimmer to compliment the lightness of the season.


 ALL OVER BRONZE...who does not love the look of a fresh bronze goddess? Use a brown pencil to line the lid before applying a light shimmer shadow to give the eyes a perfect illuminated but not frosty look. A lite dusting of bronze on the cheeks, along the bridge of the nose center of the chin and forehead (places where the sun naturally hits) will do wonders for your natural golden summer look. We are seeing a lot of pale natural shimmery lips on the red carpet this season, this look is a great way to stay natural looking with a twist and to step up your look. Use a natural pencil to fill in the soft edges and the lips, bolt and fill in with your favorite shimmer lip....to make that look last longer lightly brush your face powder over the lips to make that lipstick stick!

TWO TONED NAILS....the classic french manicure is getting an update! Two toned pink and red nails are fun, sexy and hot this season. Use a basic opaque pink as your base with a tip of your favorite red, orange, fuschia, berry or grapefruit shade to give your ordinary mani a trending look. A great mani and nail art is the perfect way to accessorize  a simple spring look.

THE ORANGE EFFECT....I never imagined I could pull off this shade but now I'm addicted! The brightness of these shades give your look a warm sunny glow and does not need any help to give a big impact. Use these tones brushed lightly on the apples of your cheeks and on your eye lids...goes great with a gold liner...you will feel absolutely radiant!


FULLER THICKER DARKER BROWS...I am obsesses with brows, mine, yours and everyone elses! I am so happy to see this trend return more and more over the last few seasons. Fuller and thicker  brows frame the face and when made darker by powder or gel they truly pop off the face enhancing your full made up look or perfectly complimenting your pure natural look.

Have fun with these, make up is great way to express yourself,  uplift your mood and can add tons of dimension to any look your going for. Give yourself permission to reignite your sexy this season, find inspiration everywhere and of course be sure to ADORE YOURSELF!!!!
