Makeup Trends-Spring 2012

SPRING HAS SPRUNG !


Yes, I said it...Spring is here! Warmer weather and rain showers have come upon us, but they're not the only things. There are also a boat load of fun and awesome Spring 2012 makeup trends that have hit center stage. I am so excited for this season because the trends are absolutely amazing! I can't wait to share them with you, so here we go!



1. Pastel Colors!

Pastels are a must for this Spring. Be on the lookout for pops of colors on the eyes. Colors such as greens, yellows, pink, purples, and blues are a hot trend this year. I don't know how well I'll be able to pull off this one, personally..but I do enjoy the look on other people!







2. Peachy Cheeks!

Peach, flushed cheeks are most certainly a must this Spring. This look seems to work on everyone, especially those with lighter skin tones. The peach tones give paler faces a luminous and glowy look that is perfect for the upcoming warmer months. There are so many peachy blushes on the market already, and since the Peach trend is in I expect to see more coming out. Keep your eyes peeled!





3. Bronzed Goddess

Pull out your bronzer and your powder brushes, ladies. Bronzer is back! This season, the sun-kissed, bronzed goddess look is in. When applied with a light hand, you can get the perfect glow. I suggest going with something matte. If you're not totally keen on the whole "no shimmer" idea, then go with something that has a little bit of glow to it. When picking out the ideal bronzer for you, make sure that you pick something that is not too orange based. You're better off sticking to a brown based bronzer, like Benefit's Hoola Bronzer (A personal favorite of mine). Remember, the idea isn't to look like an orange disco ball, it's to look like you just stepped off the beach...in the middle of March.


4. "No Makeup" Makeup

It sounds crazy, but it's true. The "No Makeup" makeup look is in. When I say "No Makeup" makeup, it sounds kind of controdicting. But, it really isn't. To sum it all up, the trend is simplicity. So toss out that winged liner and those fake lashes, and go for a simple look with brown shadows and a little bit of mascara.

Good luck trying out these trends and thank you for taking the time to read this post!
