Lavender and Chocolate Ymmm!

Spring Makeup: Color me natural and get ready to look beautiful, thanks to spring's new easy-to-wear shades. Just follow our simple steps for eyes, cheeks, and lips. When you think of spring lilacs come to mind and work beautifully with pink undertones in fair skin. Katrina VanDoran recommends the following colors and products.

Fair Skin: The look is creamy and translucent as is the face of Hanna Ek, Miss Finland 2005. She uses Colosé Foundation and Sunscreen. Your day foundation should be very light. For a healthy appearance use Colosé tinted sun cream which contains shea butter, sun filters and vitamins C and E. For evening use Colosé Caprice Foundation or if needed apply over the tinted sun cream during the day. The sun cream can also be used as a makeup base.

	Using Nature Eyeshadow from Bren Cosmetics, apply the lightest shade over the entire lid. The darker shade in the crease and the middle shade on the lid to the crease.
	Line with prune color eyeliner and for Mascara, choose either chocolate or plum.
	Lightly apply Mauve Mocha Lipstick and give your lips a golden glow by applying our new Sugar Pout and Glo.
	For Cheeks apply Colosé Cream Rouge followed by Bren Sugar Glo Powder.

Medium-warm skin usually means skin with yellow-orange undertones and medium-cool complexions are typically described as olive. Choose very creamy foundations such as tinted sport cream, Caprice or Dore foundation by Colosé Cosmetics.

Use the following eyeshadows based upon your eye color by applying the lightest shade over the entire lid. The darker shade in the crease and the middle shade on the lid to the crease.
