| Spring is such a happy time of year. With snow a distant memory, we are treated to bursting colors from flowers and trees exploding with petals of pink, purple, yellow, and white. Heavy coats and accessories are off racks, making room for lighter, airier clothes in shades that complement the landscape outside. For those seeking beauty trends to go with the season’s fashion finds, look no more. Read on for the hottest beauty products and trends to keep your spring style en vogue. For under it all…your make-up, that is, one of the newest products is blendSMART™ foundation from Doll 10 Beauty. Launched on QVC only days ago, it is one of the first automatic makeup brushes with a 360 degree rotation, delivering even, natural-looking coverage. The brush is easy-to-use for beginners and professionals alike. One of the first automatic makeup brushes that offers a flawlessly, even makeup application, Doll 10 blendSMART rotates 360 degrees to deliver 190 revolutions per minute for complete, even and natural-looking coverage in a snap. With its patent pending design, this revolutionary makeup brush is an easy-to-use tool perfect for beginners and professional artists alike. Make-up colors for spring vary quite a bit this season. A walk around make-up counters will reveal petal pinks, taupes and cocoas, smokey colors and even minimalist (nude) as the top looks. Though runway looks filter down to set local trends, try to choose colors that bring out the best for your skin tone and mood. This is the time of year that beckons for soft, sweet colors to bring your look alive after a difficult winter. Delicate pinks and peaches will have you feeling fresh and in step with spring. For your perfect pout, you will find the same color variety offered in petal pinks, nudes, corals and light bronzes are all the rage. The one surprise color on the runways this spring is bright red, usually a cold weather favorite. The biggest trend for eyes this season is lines. Liquid eye liner – along the top lid, along bottom lashes, long and wide, beyond the true end of the eye, dramatic and winged, simple and clean…any way you like. Liquid liner has been a favorite for years, but this year it holds the top spot. For your hands try a shellac manicure, either at the salon or at home. Shellac offers a great product in many new easy, breezy colors for spring. Skipping the base color is one perk of shellacs, along with reacting to light to dry to a shiny, less “chippable finish”. Find your favorite color and shine on! Spring is here. Enjoy the weather. Enjoy the colors and wear them well. |
