There’s been a lot of talk about what’s hot and new for Spring and it could leave your head spinning. Here, I break down three of my favorite Spring trends and pinpoint some products that are completely wearable and attainable.
First, Bold Lips!
I believe any woman can pull this off. A bold lip can be dressed up or down and since it is the focal point of the face, it is perfect for a no-muss no-fuss girl.
1. Pink – MAC Candy Yum Yum ($15)
2. Purple – OCC Hoochie Lip Tar ($16)
3. Red – Smashbox True Red Lipstick ($19)
4. Orange – Urban Decay Super Saturated Lip Pencil in Punch Drunk ($19)
Next, Bold Brows! This seems to be the most intimidating of looks. The only tip that I can offer is to go with the natural shape of your brow and never ever ever ever (ever) wear black liner on your brows no matter how dark your hair.
1. Palladio Herbal brow gel ($6) – For the timid brow girls, clear brow gel to help keep the hair in place.
2. Benefit Brow Zings ($30) – this is a wax/powder combo for fullness and definition
3. Smashbox Brow Tech ($26) – for volume and defintion.
And the last would be….Glowy Skin! You want skin to look healthy and bright.
1. Too Faced Candlelight ($30) – goes with every skin tone.
2. Benefit High Beam ($27) – for fair to medium skin tones
3. Becca Opal Highlighter ($41) – for all skin tones
