Ready to bid adieu to cold weather and winter hues? So am I! Let’s bask in springtime’s mile high sun and update our makeup bags with long-lasting, easy to apply, local beauty finds that won’t have you tip-toeing into savings. To keep the skin fresh and natural, start with a mineral based foundation, cream blush with a subtle highlight, and add light contouring to create dimension. Brows continue to be a strong seasonal focus, so keep them full and defined. See a specialist if you don’t trust yourself. Try these simple beauty tips below for a springtime ladylike refresh and share your fresh makeup face with me by tagging #dsmbeauty. - Nicole Toledo, DSM Beauty Contributor nicoletoledomakeupartistry.com
Eyes
BEAUTY
04
Save the smoky eye for the holidays and start with a neutral shadow in the outer corners of the eye.
Play with pops of color along the lashline in electric blue, gold, or camo green for a glimmer of something different.
Apply eyeliner from edge to edge with the thinnest line at the inner corner of the eye and the thickest line toward the outer edge.
Lips Line the lips with a shade as close to your lip color as possible.
Apply lipstick with a lip brush for a more even application.
Use a brush and powder to clean up uneven edges.
Apply gloss for bold, long lasting, kissable lips.
