Bold, Spring Trends to Try This Season
Hey beauties! I’m so happy it’s officially spring! The weather is warmer, everything is blooming and greener, and spring beauty trends are finally here! While I’m all for a fresh, simple look that enhances your natural beauty, I can’t help but be excited for the colorful trends that are popping up! Check out some of my favorites below, and let me know which ones you’re trying by tagging me in your photos on Instagram at @lookgoodliveluxe!
Pink Mascara
Colored mascara is always fun, but I hold pink near and dear to my heart! For a bold and daring look, you can try Yves Saint Laurent’s Vinyl Couture Mascara in Hot Pink. It instantly enhances your eyes, making them appear brighter and more awake. Make sure to keep the rest of your look minimal, though, so it doesn’t appear too busy. (Not sure you can pull off such a dramatic look? Start with a coat of your favorite black mascara, then layer a subtle tint over your top and bottom lashes for a different, yet totally wearable-to-work appearance!)

Colorful, Stained Lips
For some styles, lipstick can make or break your entire look! In my opinion, it is the look! I’m currently obsessing over the blurred, stained effect that you can find on every runway model. It’s purposefully messy, and seems to be a defiant reaction to the overly drawn lips of the past. Not sure which type of stain is best for your pout? I always pick a lip balm and stain in one, like this Revlon Lip Balm Stain with Shea, Mango, and Coconut Butter! (Talk about hydration!)
Fresh, Glowing Faces and a Flush of Cream Blush
If you’re looking for a simpler look that appears more natural, I suggest starting with a hydrating foundation or BB Cream to achieve that dewy finish and provide coverage, followed by a cream blush, like this Stila Convertible Color, whose translucent color gives a perfect, sheer tint!
Pastel Eyeliners
This season, why not try your hand at something new? Pastel eyeliners can be swiped on to brighten your eyes and create a memorable statement. The hardest part? Choosing the right shade! Go too bright and you could appear frightening; go too soft, and it’s likely to go unnoticed. NARS Larger Than Life Eyeliner has multiple rich, creamy colors that won’t smudge, so you can try a color that’s sure to draw attention!

Collagen
Want to work on your beauty from the inside out? For several months now, I’ve been drinking my collagen beauty drink daily - and the changes I’ve seen in my hair, skin, and nails have been amazing! Our bodies’ natural collagen production decreases every year, so it’s super important to add a collagen supplement into our daily routine! This spring, why not add an internal regimen to your external beauty routine? Your skin is going to look more flawless than ever!
No matter what look you choose, I challenge all my beauties to be a little more adventurous this season! Go out of your comfort zone and try something new - you’d be surprised at how fun and confident you’ll feel!
