SPRING MAKEUP

Benecos Natural Lipliners   Finally!  We’ve needed some new lip liners in green beauty. Gluten-free and certified natural, these new lip liners come in Red, Brown and Pink. The perfect red liner, a pretty nude and a pink for all your Spring lipsticks and gloss.  I love wearing lip liners because I like a defined edge and liners also keep your lipstick on longer when you’ve used them as a base for your lipsticks.

Benecos Twist Up Shiny Lip Color  C’mon, is this not the most perfect lil lip color to have in your bag?  I love.  I think these would be perfect for the beach, too.  These lip colors are moisturizing with Organic Jojoba oil, Sunflower Oil, Beeswax and Vitamin E. The colors? Rusty Rose, Silky Tulip and Pretty Dais.  $13.99

Ilia Beauty’s I Put A Spell On You  I’ve really gotten into the coral/tangerine thing for the last few seasons. Why?  Because no matter how ashy or dull your skin looks, this color always brightens up the face in a way that no other color can…even pink and I’m the Queen o’ Pink!   I love this paired with Ilia’s gloss, The Butterfly & I, too.  Just a fun, pretty pop of color that really looks great on a lot of skin tones.  A fresh, young and pretty look that looks gorgeous worn light or heavier.  $34 at Citrine Beauty Bar

Kjaer Weis Lip Tints in Amazed and Rapture Ah, who doesn’t LOVE Kjaer Weis?  I was so excited to try these babies on because they’re just so perfect for Spring!  Amazed is a pale lavender/pink that looks great with a pink cheek and a smokey eye. It goes on easily and you can apply with your fingertips.   It’s a modern daytime look and doesn’t need frequent reapplication. Rapture is a true feisty raspberry.  It’s got great pigment, 95% organic ingredients and I also dab a touch on my cheeks, so it doubles as a bit of a blush, too.  Rapture would also look pretty as a substitute for a red lip.  Think pale eyes and this bold rose lip for the upcoming Spring weather.  $49

RMS Tinted “Un” Powder  This just in at Spirit Beauty Lounge!  I admit it, I’m not a powder girl, but I have heard that if you are a powder girl, than this is thee powder that will not make you look dry or like you’ve got too much mineral foundation on your face (bad, bad look, agreed?).  I think a tinted powder for Spring/Summer is a wonderful idea, especially if you’re the type that tends to get oily and wants to have a little sheer coverage.  And, from what I understand, it gives skin a pretty glow as light-reflecting pigments soften imperfections and leave the skin looking flawless. Comes in three shades.  $34  Citrine Beauty Bar
