Spring Make Up | Bronze Eyes & Red-Orange Lips



This season the makeup look of the moment is a bright and bold, orange-red toned lip, teamed with gold/bronze eyes. I'm not one to follow trends for the sake of trends, but if you remember my Lipstick Doughtnut Post, then you'll know how much I love the Hourglass Opaque Rouge in Riviera! With that in my stash it would be rude not to put down my eyeliner and take out my trusty Urban Decay Naked Palette for a bronze eye. I simply swept Half Baked all over the lid with my Mac 217 Brush and blended out. Running a little Darkhorse along the lash line, adding lashings of mascara and I was good to go!

I also took this opportunity to take my Tarte Blush in Tipsy out for a spin. Oh wow! Never has a blush applied so buttery and blended so well. Blushes normally last on me a max of 3hours but this one genuinely lasted until bed time!

Finally an ode to the Dior BB Cream. I remember when I hadn't ever thought my skin was good enough for a BB. Then my lovely friend & blogger Alice of Bright Town Girl wrote THIS post and it went straight on my birthday list. Now the sun is out and my skin is behaving (touch wood!) I dug it back out. Teamed with the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Diffused Light and this is a glowy, lightweight base that stays put.

Let me know what you think of this look and what trends you'll be trying out this Spring/Summer !
