Blush
As fluffy white clouds drift across the blue sky, it's time to brighten up your face with the appropriate spring face makeup.

BB/CC Creams
It’s time to ditch heavy, full coverage foundations and concealers that can look cakey as the weather warms up. Instead fall in love–again—with airy textured and lightweight BB and CC Creams that are infused with skin loving ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. These face makeup products set to a delicate satin matte finish and provides sheer to light coverage, evening out the skin tone and hiding redness. You can’t get any softer, and more perfect for spring skin than this.

Neutral Eye Shadow Palette
Give darker, dramatic color palettes a miss and instead pick warm berry and nude eyeshadows. There’s no limit to what a nude eye makeup palette can do; smoke, highlight and diffuse to create endless, classic and timeless looks that range from earth tones to warmer chocolates and accents of lavender.
Highlighter
Spring is all about building luminosity. Subtle highlighting for a luminous glow that catches the light is what you should be after. Avoid harsh and obvious sculpt contouring and choose best illuminator & highlighter to accentuate your features and give you that unbeatable sun kissed glow.
