For spring you normally expect pastels, but this season one of the stand out trends was  bright bold COLOR!

Bold Lips

Think corals, fuchias, reds, bright hot pink. For this look try to keep the rest of your face natural. Try to use foundation, powder (if your oily), mascara and liner, remember the focus for this look are your lips.

Bright Eye Color

Bold eyeshadow colors made a big splash on the runway for this season. You can use any bright color eyeshadow for this look, green, blue, pink, purple, orange, you can go on and on. The great thing about this look is you don’t need to blend different shadows together, pick your favorite color and add some black liner and mascara and you can be rocking one of the seasons hottest trends. Keep the rest of your face natural, you don’t want color everywhere keep your eyes the main focus.

Natural Makeup

This is all about your letting your beautiful face be the focus. Foundation, concealer for the face with a slight touch of blush. Keep your eyes natural looking by applying a neutral colored eyeshadow close to your skin tone and adding mascara. For the lips try to keep them bare. You don’t want a “nude” shade, think of a color that matches your own lips. Think of it as you only a little polished and the let the beautiful you shine through. You can never go wrong with this timeless look.

Smokey Eye Makeup

Looks like the smokey eye is going anywhere, and it’s here to stay! It will never go out of style! Every woman feels sexy, glamorous, and confident with a smokey eye.

What makeup trend will you be trying out? New season, new you!
