Spring is around the corner, so will you get your makeup right? As with anything, most times less is more, so should it be with our makeup. I have never seen makeup that looks so flawless on someone than when they simply use a little makeup to enhance the beauty underneath the makeup. To me, it is important to allow your natural beauty to shine through with just a small help from the right makeup and colors that work for your skin tone.
Now you ask, what is the right makeup? The right makeup could first mean; ensuring you’re using makeup that works best for your skin type. This is important because some ingredients in certain different brands of makeup may contain an ingredient(s) that doesn’t work well for you, which can cause your natural skin to break out, become dry, or too oily. You must know, no
matter what type of makeup we use, if our skin underneath the makeup is not agreeing with what we’re putting on it, makeup may not matter. The reason why makeup may not matter is because oftentimes, it is almost very difficult, or impossible to cover up pimples or really bad acne with makeup. Besides, it’ll also take away from the flawless look you want to achieve when using makeup. Therefore, please keep in mind to always pay attention to your skin, we must realize, everyone cannot use any and all kinds of makeup products. We must use what works best for our own skin types.
Now, let’s get down to some of the newest 2012 spring makeup tips. "The new spring makeup look is a “fresh,” “clean,” and “easy” look."
New Spring Look Tip #1 - Glowy Skin To get the glowy skin look, instead of using your regular foundation, try using a beauty balm. Using a beauty balm will give you more of a glowy/radiant look. There’s an extra bonus to using some beauty balms because they act more like a moisturizer. For example, let’s take the e.l.f. Studio Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20. This is a great product to use while giving you the glowy spring look you’re trying to achieve. Not only will it give you the look you want, but is also lightweight, helping to hydrate the skin, providing anti-aging and sun protection with UVA/UVB SPF 20. This product’s other great ingredients also includes Aloe, Cucumber, and Vitamins A, C and E, which aides in enhancing your complexion. Compared to most other products like this, you may spend $15.00 and up, but at e.l.f, you can get this product for $3.00.
Tinted Moisturizer Tip: Ensure your tinted moisturizer is glowy and not greasy, it’s a difference. If you appear to look greasy, simply use a powder to simply buff out the greasy look.
New Spring Look Tip #2 – Rosy Cheeks If you want to add a beautiful glow to your cheeks, then do away with your old regular routine of using a powder blush and try using a cream blush. A cream blush will give you more of a radiant and sunny glow on the cheeks. Let’s take the e.l.f. Studio Cream Blush, it’s a great product and very easy to apply. Try using a light pink or peachy color and apply by using your fingers to melt the blush into the apples of the cheeks. Most products like this may cost around $15.00-$20.00 or more, e.l.f. has this product for $6.00. The great thing is this cream blush has a great creamy texture and is not greasy, giving you a velvety finish and it’s long lasting wear gives you a radiant and youthful look.
New Spring Look Tip #3 – Sparkly Eyes To add pop and sparkle to your eyes, add a shimmery pearl color eye shadow on your tear ducts and brow bones. This will make your eyes appear larger and give your eyes a pop of color that will reflect off of light. If you choose to add some other light colors to your eyes, just be sure to add the shimmery pearl eye shadow color to both your tear ducts and brow bones. A great product is the e.l.f. Essential Duo Eye Shadow Cream, it’s a great cream eye shadow with a shimmery pop to it and is also crease resistant. Try the pearl color, but since each is a duo color, you can blend other shimmery colors. Each duo shadow comes with two different colors for only $1.00. I must say, I love these cream eye shadows and a little goes a long way and they are long lasting shadows.
New Spring Look Tip #4 – Top Those Lashes Let’s talk about lashes and how it doesn’t take a lot to get great lashes. If you’re simply going to work, church, or the store and want to get quick lashes, you don’t have to take so much time to apply fake lashes. Just try an eye shadow that will give you length and volume. To get a great eye lash look without spending a lot of time applying lashes, try the e.l.f. Studio Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara. This mascara will give you fuller, thicker, and longer lashes without spending a lot of time applying lashes. The mascara’s enlarged brush allow you to coat your lashes evenly, dries quickly; preventing clumping and lasts all day without smudging and flaking. You can get this great mascara from e.l.f. for the low price of $3.00.
Mascara Tip: When applying mascara, be sure to first use an eyelash curler to curl and pull the lashes up. In order to get a good application onto your lashes, when using the mascara brush, begin by starting at the root of the eyelash up through the lashes to get an even coat, repeat a few times until lashes are coated, fuller, and longer.
New Spring Look Tip #5 – The Kissers
Remember, we’re looking for a fresh, clean, and simple look, so away with the dark and heavy lipsticks of winter and in with a shiny, beautiful, and light lip gloss. How do we get our lips to spring back from winter, try the e.l.f. Studio Lip Stain. Try out a variety of their clear gloss colors for a beautiful shiny look.
