“That Gal” is my favorite primer. When I don’t feel like wearing makeup, I dab some on my cheeks and forehead and blend for a fresh-faced glow.
Even if you don’t get to vacation in a tropical paradise this spring, you can still look like it! Fake it ’til you make it, babes. My skin gets insanely pale in the winter months, which is why “Watt’s Up” by Benefit tops the list for my favorite makeup products. Applied to cheekbones, it lightens up your face with a champagne shimmer, while also giving you that bronze sun-kissed glow. Don’t forget to apply a powder bronzer first!
Cat eyes were all over the catwalk this year, and you can achieve them with some super mascara – like this one by Estee Lauder (it’s my fave!). The blacker, the better. If you need a little boost, try applying a primer (like Estee Lauder’s Lash Primer Plus) to lashes before adding mascara. The white primer will plump up your lashes for added volume! If you want a cheaper option, try Maybelline’s two-in-one primer and mascara, my favorite drugstore option.
Finally, pastel nails are in this season. I’m loving the latest collection from Essie, especially these three pastel hues. In love!
What are you favorite makeup trends this Spring? I want to hear!
Happy Saturday 🙂
Love, Cait
I love this post! Especially the new lip colors. I usually am a nude lip kinda girl, but I've been itching to try out all these new bold colors, and I think you may have just convinced me!

LOVE this post 🙂 I'm soooo happy that cat/ bold eyes are in! just what i do ayway! 🙂 and also the pastel nails gives me an excuss to buy more nail pollish which i really dont need! 😛 i one have one pastel colour.. more is a must!
I like benefit products. A friend told me that it was "too young" but I don't agree. I'm going back to get some more.
I'm usually a nude lip kind of girl, but recently I've been stocking up on bright lip colors! Mac and Nars have the most exciting colorful lip options.. I can't wait until spring so I can test them all out!
