I am so excited that the weather is getting warmer and soon it will be spring!
I have received gorgeous new makeup that is perfect to change up your look this spring. Bold lips, smudgy eyes and bright nails are some of the makeup trends this spring, but I find that you can incorporate a few seasonal trends while wearing makeup you love!
Below are some of my current faves for eyes, lips and nails:
Rimmel London Nudes Calling
Get ready to take your eye-look from day to night! Rimmel introduces new Magnif’Eyes Eye Contouring Palette ($7.99 USD), a twelve-pan all-in-one pressed eyeshadow, liner and highlighter kit. Now it’s easy to create endless contoured eye-looks, just like a beauty pro. Rimmel has put everything you need for multi-dimensional eye looks in one handy kit. A spectrum of stay-true shades with a soft, double-ended applicator.
The line-up is a mix of twelve high-shimmer and matte shadows, which offers the perfect complementary colour range for infinite creations. Sculpt, shade and define your eyes to create day to night, and nude to daring looks. The beautifully blendable, ultra-smooth powder can be used on the lid, in the crease of the eye and as a liner to enhance and magnif’eye your eye color and shape. The non-crease, non-fade formula has serious staying power for eyes with lasting impact.
The palette above is London Nudes Calling. It spans an array of warm blush tones from beige through tawny to taupe to rust and plum. It’s easy to create a multitude of wear-anywhere nude eye-looks that look natural or intense. There is also Keep Calm & Wear Gold with a molten mix of gold and copper hues with pale taupes to highlight and rich coffee and grey blue colors to define; and Grunge Glamour, the perfect palette for a sultry smokey eye. Neutral greys and browns are set against fierce, bronze and pewter hues for irresistible eyes.

NEW MUA Intense Rescue Lip Mask ($9 USD) Cushion and comfort dry lips with this rich lip treatment. Featuring a blend of oils and waxes, it rehabilitates lips’ delicate skin. Available in a universally flattering pink shade!
I really love the lip oil, it is a light color and it is so hydrating! I also like the lip mask, but I wish it had an applicator tip on the end. It’s a bit strange that it has color, but you have to apply with your fingers. It’s very moisturizing as well!
