Spice up your eye makeup for spring!

Flo writes…

Getting bored of those dark plum and grey winter shadows? Why not try one of these tricks to make your peepers pop and remind you of warmer days! 

  • Lemon liner- crazy as it sound it actually looks really cute if you do a crisp line about your lashes! This works with any colour but yellow will give you a sunny feel (which we all need on these gray day)
  • Sparkly mascara- Take a lose eyeshadow in a sparkly shade and role your wet mascara wand in it before coating your lashes. You can do this with a pressed shadow too by sprinkling it on with a brush. 
  • Neon shadow- take a cream shadow in a really bright colour and swipe it on with your finger above your lashes. It does not matter if it doesn’t look neat- imperfect is COOL! 
  • reverse liner- Use a white liner above your lashes and then line in your crease with a black liner. This looks really cool and  will make the whites of your eyes POP!

Hope this gave you a few ideas for spicing up your every day makeup!

Makeup forever spring 2011 collection

Flo writes…

This collection was apparently inspired by Brigitte Bardot and is titled Tres Vichy. The whole collection is girly and fun, with fresh spring colours! 

I am in love with those lashes! I can’t believe they have bows on them (so cute but not sure I am brave enough to pull them off :S). What do you think of this collection?

Sneak Peak- Chanel Spring Makeup 2011

Flo writes…

This collection ‘Les Perles De Chanel’ contains mostly perlised shades of black and white, which are designed to brighten the skin. Most of the lipsticks are peach and coral, so pretty! To me this is the perfect idea of spring makeup because by then your skin normally needs a pick me up after the hard months of winter!

Available January 2011 (I am not sure if it is store yet but it is available online!)
