Spring 2009 Makeup Trends By Marilyn M Etzel At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

When spring rolls around what will you be wearing? Winter clothing is shed for more colorful apparel that is also lightweight. When the weather gets warm everyone wants to step out looking their best. Here is what they’ll be wearing on their faces this spring.

Do you have a favorite facial feature? If it’s your eyes, we’ve got some advice for you. The smoky look has resurfaced for another season. Give that alluring mysterious look the time it’s due. It can be worn at work or during evening fun. Flirty eye shadows and dark liners will keep them guessing.

Want the smoky look but don’t know how to get it? Start by applying a dark shade of eye liner to your upper and lower eye lids along the lash line. On the upper lid, use a metallic or pastel shade of color. Smudge the two together on the upper lid and slightly smudge the lower liner to create the look you want.

False eyelashes go well with the smoky look. Avoid going too big unless the party warrants it. When you apply false eyelashes, keep the longer lashes towards the outer eye area.

You can tone down your smoky look during the day with softer features overall. Keep your face looking natural with mineral makeup foundation and a hint of color with mineral blush. Minerals blend with your skin for a flawless lightweight look and feel. Your eyes will still be the center of attention with a flawless face to complement them.

Mineral makeup has more than one color. You can find several beautiful shades for cheeks, eyes and foundation. Use a foundation always before applying any other makeup to your face. Mineral makeup has the distinction of being healthy for your skin and hiding little imperfections. In blush, choose warmer tones like pinks for your face. It brings out the warmer highlights in each person’s skin tone.

If you like, add a bit of shimmer. Crème makeup adds metallic sparkle for eyes and lips. These colors work best in the evening when you are out on the town.

Your lips need some attention too. Instead of heading straight for the blood red lipstick try something new. This season, choose a softer color to bring out that natural beauty. Find lip color in shades of pink and peach. A lip liner will accentuate the shape of your lips for that kissable appearance.

When the lips go soft so do the eyes. Instead of metallic colors to grace those lids, choose soft pastels like lilac and lavender. Stick to one coat of mascara and make it waterproof.

You can add color if you like to live on the edge. Dull skin can be brought back to life with pouty red lips. Complete that look with a swipe of blush just below the cheekbone, sweeping from the nose out towards the ears.

Darker tones are best left in winter. Embrace the light for the spring season. Add a bit of color but don’t sacrifice your natural look.
