Here's a sneak peek into what to expect this Spring. We'll call this Sneak Peek #1 because I expect to hear more.
Color is going to be big this spring. Eyeshadows in pastel shades like baby blue, pinks and pistachio will be really in. Lip colors are going to have a brighter feel and I've learned that bold orange will be sweeping the makeup world. Oooooh!
Watch out because here comes the "no mascara" trend. I guess it's supposed to make you look younger and more innocent. Some of us will feel pretty naked without mascara but can still join in on the trend by using a blonde mascara which will give your lashes some definition.
Still in will be glowing skin. That's a must but there's a difference between glowy and shiny. The key is to get rid of unwanted shine around the unwanted areas such as the nose but to create a glow in specific areas.
The trick to this is going to be to either use a foundation that is sheer and brightening or to use a base that creates a glow. The first option will only work if you have healthy, clear skin and the second option will work if you don't. Here's some ideas.
Foundation's That Will Make You Glow:
NARS Sheer Glow Foundation $45
