Spring Makeup- au naturel



Spring is a time of sunshine and pretty colours, and your makeup can reflect its beauty in a natural and low maintenance way. Dewy skin, fluttery lashes and flushed cheeks and lips are the perfect way of creating a spring look.


A lighter coverage with a glowy, sheeny look is perfectly recreated with Bare Minerals powder foundation. The original provides a sheer look that’s radiant but not greasy, which is a bonus for anyone with oily skin. If you need a little more coverage, on blemishes perhaps, try the corresponding concealer- the multi- tasking minerals for a more opaque and creamy finish.

For blusher give the 17 blusher in plum puff a whirl, for a natural, flushed pinky purple. It’s almost matte, but has a little shimmer for a healthy glow. That’s all for the face, very simple and quick, but effective too.

A little colour in the spring time looks wonderful on the eyes. Navy is a shade for the less daring- its more neutral. Estee Lauder’s beautiful navy quad, ‘intoxicating blue’, has a light duck egg, yellow champagne, dark navy and shimmery peach. The peach looks stunning over the lid, the champagne as a brow bone highlight and navy used as a liner on angled brush.

Heaping’s of Barry M’s volume mascara, to accentuate those fluttery lashes and bring out the eyes.

A lip-gloss to match the blush- Tanya Burr’s ‘smile, dream, sparkle’ is the perfect light pink, with a hint of shimmer and lilac. These glosses are outstanding, with great colour range, formula and smell.



That’s all, a natural, navy and lilac makeup for spring!
