It’s
Springtime peeps! And no matter who you are, you cannot deny the joy of the
warmer, brighter weather and the colour that seems to return to the world! Makeup
for Spring 2016 defies all the old clichés of soft pastels and colours that
blend gently. This year it’s different and I, for one, love the Spring look.
It’s bright, it’s edgy and yet just so pretty.
Super Charged and Super Saturated Colour
Get ready to
flood your lips with super saturated pastels! The look this year is bold and
bright for lips, drenched in powerful colours of pink, peach, purple and the
classic red lip too – but the shade right now for red is candy apple, true red,
and it looks absolutely great on absolutely everyone! My buy to get a Spring
look is Laneige Serum Intense Lipstick (pushBUTTON limited edition) in
glorious, bright ‘Funky Pink’ LR01. The colour is just that, funky and fun, and the 35% serum formula keeps my lips soft and satiny.
Lash out in blue
Then, it’s
always the case with ‘the eyes have it’ and in Spring we will embrace two big
things – big lashes, and big blue colour! In the last few seasons runways have
been devoid of major lash trends, but for Spring, it’s time to lash out!
Beautiful, layered lashes with many coats of mascara and many designs in false
lashes are everywhere. I love the false lash look but steer clear of it as I
wear contact lenses and can do without any extra eye irritation. But, I found
an awesome product that helps me get to the ‘root’ of the problem and make my
own lashes look amazing!It's Peter Thomas Roth Lashes To Die For™ Turbo
Night-time Eyelash Treatment.
This peptide-based treatment targets all three
stages of the lash renewal cycle, while you are sleeping. My lashes are
definitely thicker and fuller, and they even look longer too. It’s an absolute
winner, especially as I have always felt a bit lacking in the eyelash department.
The product is ophthalmologist tested and very gentle. You just apply a thin
layer along your lash roots as if you were applying eyeliner, pop off to
dreamland and wake up to dreamy, thicker lashes!
Another major, bright trend for Spring is eye colour
– you can have blue, blue or blue on your eyes ok? Electric blue, navy blue,
blue sparkles, blue eyelashes – you get the picture? I am in love with Bobbi
Brown Graphite Long Wear Gel Eyeliner in Shimmer 15.
The subdued navy is imbued with a soft shimmer,
giving the eyes a spectacular sparkle. And in Spring, you must sparkle as you
start to dream of summer holidays!
Use
what you love, and leave out the rest!
These are just some of the trends I want to embrace
this Spring! There are plenty of others you might like to explore, like a
bronze / sunkissed look, dark vampire lips, peach or pink eyelids and lots of
eye sparkles. It’s all about using the looks that you love, and making it your
own!
