Spring Beauty Trends 2011

1) Fluorescent and Bright Eyes

To make this more wearable for “street” life vs the runway, apply a sheer wash of your preferred shade and keep the lips to a very neutral pink or peach.

2) Geisha Bright Lips

Both glossy and matte shades in rich bright colours (orange, fuchsia, magenta, siren red) with a completely naked eye and light liner for some definition.

3) Monochromatic Smokey Eyes

Use one colour dark along the lashline and feather it up to the eyebrow. Either apply a gradient affect of the same colour or keep it opaque, but there is little or no highlighting or contouring colours. This look is bold and edgy with a very natural deconstructed brow. There is no blush, just light contouring.

4) 70s Revival

Very natural skin that is more radiant than dewy, bronze contour and glowing peach cheeks. Hair is big, bouncy, and feathered.

5) Hair Pulled Back

Either pulled back in a natural and relaxed updo, sleek bun or pinned away from the face with hair accessories (especially art deco barrettes).

6) Real Women, Real Skin

If you have great skin, let it show through. Minimal coverage and luminous finishes are the skin trend this season.
