Subtle Spring Look for the Career Woman

This look was requested by reader Miranda. She is a busy career woman and mom, and she wanted a "not so colorful spring look" that she could wear to work or a night out. To me, spring is all about glowing skin, rosy cheeks, and COLOR, but just for Miranda, I held back on the color and came up with this more subtle look. Scroll Down for Instructions.
Enjoy :)
 

Reader Requested- Modern Pinup for Spring

Hello Readers,
I know I have not posted a new look for a few weeks, but I have been so busy applying makeup on others, that I hadn't found the time to log on and post. I missed you all!
As requested by blog reader Glamorosa, here is an easy daytime pinup look. This makeup looks great and is very in for Spring and it does not have to be reserved for special events like the more dramatic looks. It's an electric blue liner, paired with a vibrant red lip. This look is very simple to achieve, just follow my instructions for the Pinup look, but use a bright liner instead and skip the lashes. Read on for Products used.

Spring Look- Pink and Violet Surprise!

This is the 2nd look for the spring series. This one is also bright and colorful, but I used a different style and color combo. I used frosty pink, violet, and deep purple, but the surprise is that I added a pop of ocean blue. I really like how all the colors look together. To finish off the look, I added a bright Pink lip stick and gloss. I have to say this is one of my favorite looks I have done in a while. I got lots of compliments on my makeup that day. Try it yourself and maybe you will get compliments too! Enjoy :)

Spring Look- Bright Greens and Blues

Spring is my favorite season, not only because of the weather, but because of the makeup. I love wearing fun colorful makeup looks. With that said, I will be doing a series of spring looks for the blog just in time for all of you to wear them out during the season.

The first look is this bright green and blue look that's a bit dramatic, but remember you can always do the same thing, but tone it down using colors that are not as strong. It honestly took just a few minutes to do the eyes, so keep reading for the instructions.

"Girly Girl"- Purples and Pinks

Ever since I had my baby girl, I find myself gravitating towards more fun, "girlie" colors. What can I say? I guess it's because my house has been bombarded with pink items. I used that as inspiration to create this lively, girlie look using pinks, purples, and violets. I invite all of you to find a cutesy flowery dress, grab a "Barbie pink" lipstick, and have fun creating your own Girly Girl look.
