Spring Trends! Pop of Colour, Cat eyes, Soft Lips

In spring right now, lots of new trends are emerging...
-Over-the-top smoky eyes
-Baby-like flawless dewy skin
-Soft natural lip colour
-Pop of colour on the eyes
-Strong blush and contouring
-Wispy doll lashes
-Cat eyeliner, maybe in different colours
-Strong eyebrows
-Glitter

My next few looks will embody some of these trends. Doing all of them all at once with one look would be a bit crazy.

So the trends in bold are the ones I used in this look. Hope you enjoy my interpretation!

Closeup! 
I have green eyes. On any colour wheel you can find on Google, you will see that the opposite of green is red. I don't know about you but I don't have the time to attempt making red eyeshadow not look like an infection... So I went for pink!

Products Used:

Face:
-Maybelline Fit Me foundation #210 mixed with MUFE HD #128
-Cover FX Full Coverage Cream foundation in M40 (under eyes)
-Laura Mercier Matte Translucent Powder
-Tarte bronzer in Park Ave Princess
-NYX Mosaic Powder in Love
-MAC eyeshadow in Charcoal Brown (eyebrows)

Eyes:
-UDPP
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Sin (pressed on the main lids)
-Inglot eyeshadow #361 (matte peachy pink blended generously in the crease)
-Inglot eyeshadow #495 (deep bright pink in the crease and lower lashline, blended into lighter pink)
-Inglot eyeshadow #74 (deep red-purple mixed with the hot pink etched in the deep crease)
-Inglot eyeshadow #351 (matte cream on browbone)
-Lise Watier loose shadow in Folie Blanche (shimmery sparkly white on inner corners)
-Rimmel GlamEyes Liquid black eyeliner (cat lines)
-Anabelle white eyeliner pencil (waterline)

Lips:
-Jack Black Lemon Lip Balm
-Nars lipstick in Dolce Vita (BEST NATURAL LIP COLOUR FOR OLIVE SKIN TONES EVER)

So have fun and try out some of these trends! But don't spend all your money like I do.

Neutral Daytime Eyes with a POP of Colour

Hello people.
So I did my makeup like this because I wanted to keep it neutral.... But I can rarely avoid colour altogether!

Green!

GREEEENN!!!
 This is a really basic eye makeup look with a bright green eyeliner just in the lower waterline. It's a quick and simple way to amp up your eyeball routine without looking like a drag queen, although I like doing that too...

Ahh, so nice!
