Dolce & Gabbana-Inspired Spring Makeup

Spring has finally sprung and it’s time to revamp your day-to-day make-up look. During the fall and winter dark lips and smokier eyes are all the rage. Now I love a dark vampy lip just as much as the next girl, but spring calls for lighter and fresher colors to take center stage. I love looking to fashion week for some fresh inspiration for a new season. This year, Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring Summer 2016 show not only showcased some amazingly bright and floral spring fashions but the models makeup was absolute perfection in my eyes! (pun-intended). The looks featured a freshly flushed face and simplistic eye looks. One model in particular showcased her amazingly gorgeous freckles- which I love! This look is perfection and it takes little to no time in the mornings- which if I’m completely honest is my favorite part.

This look in particular super easy to achieve- and anyone can do it, I have faith in you! The first step is to switch out your heavier, fuller coverage foundations for a tinted moisturizer. Not only does a tinted moisturizer give a fresher look, but it’s great to give your skin a break from the heavier of foundations and go for a more lightweight feel. A great option is the Beauty Addicts Mineral Sheer Tint, is quite buildable for a tinted moisturizer & its oil-free which makes it an option for all skin types. I also love how all the girls had a natural flush to their cheeks- not intense contouring; just a simple blush which I think is so beautifully refreshing. A great blush for the flushing from within look is the beauty Addicts Sleek Cheeks in Motivate. A great way to apply the cream shade in this compact is with a damp sponge, it will give you a more skin-like finish. Continuing on with the natural theme in this show were the lips- they stuck with a simple peachy pink, kind of like a your lips but better type of shade. I love the Beauty Addicts Lipstick in Flirt it’s an ideal peach shade with a hint of shimmer, if you’re looking for something a bit brighter I love the shade Vintage as well! I also loved how they kept the winged liner on the softer side, to achieve this liner look try using a black eyeshadow with an angled brush instead of liquid which can be a little more dramatic. Most importantly, don’t forget to have fun with it & Happy Spring!
