It’s spring and time to get rid of pale, blah, winter skin. Your best way to boost your glow is with the perfect bronzer. It’s Friday, so get fierce with bronzed glow!

Ideal contour tool 4. Enhances complexion, no need for foundation 5. Evens out “tan” lines on body The perfect example of a glowing bronzed girl is Eva Marcille at the recent premier of “Our Family Wedding” at AMC Loews Lincoln Square 13 theater on March 9, 2010 in New York City.

The Best Spring Makeup Trends to Try Now from Fashion Week

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York is over, but we are still enthralled with the beautiful hair and makeup looks for Spring/Summer 2015 that we saw backstage. Dewy skin, with barely there makeup was the front-runner among most designers as the makeup of choice. Soft lips paired with pastel eyes were a close runner-up as was the perennial smoky eye — albeit a soft smoke… Bold brows are always in, and were a staple on the runway. And if you want a break from traditional black eyeliner, try white line! From minimalistic to full-on glamazon, the backstage makeup looks are easily duplicated with the right tools. 1. Dewy Skin & Soft Blush Try: Lumene Bright Now Vitamin C BB Serum $21.99 Lumene Bright Now Vitamin C BB Serum features wild Arctic Cloudberry and encapsulated Vitamin C to instantly brighten the skin and improves moisture balance. Formulated to minimize the appearance of pores and dull skin. Natural anti-oxidants to protect against the signs of aging. Instantly beautifying effect with light reflecting pigments. Sheer, colorless finish. Try: Smashbox ‘Halo’ Long Wear Blush $28 Inspired by the best-selling Halo powder! Get a luminous, lit-from-within flush with a long-wearing blush.

Product Review-Skin Care: Laura Mercier Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème – The Perfect Moisturizer for Spring

Spring is in the air, and although you may want to skimp on skin care necessities like moisturizer, I don’t advise it. What I do recommend, however, is that you change up your skin care routine a bit. Try a moisturizer that’s lightweight, but packs a punch. And guess what? I have the inside track on one of the best moisturizers you can treat your skin to this spring. I’m talking about Laura Mercier Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème. It’s perfectly lovely. The details about Laura Mercier Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème $68 This light, whipped Nourishing Crème supremely hydrates skin, helping to replenish and balance skin’s moisture during the day and restore skin’s natural radiance and softness at night. Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème helps: – Rejuvenate skin’s appearance and strengthen its moisture barrier – Intensely moisturize and condition with Mango and Shea Butters. Why I love it: It was love at first whiff with Laura Mercier Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème. The scent of rose is soft, rather faint, yet appealing. Not like your grandma’s rose… Next is the lovely texture of this moisturizer. It’s whipped, so it’s lightweight, almost reminiscent of a gel cream. And when it touches your face, it’s an amazing sensation. While Laura Mercier Infusion de Rose Nourishing Crème feels rich and luxurious, it doesn’t wear that way. Rather, it sinks right into your skin, leaving it feeling moist and hydrated, not heavy, greasy or sticky. The best part of the moisturizer though, is that is keeps your skin feeling hydrated throughout the day. And when applied at night, you wake up to beautiful radiant skin. I think that most skin types can use this moisturizer, even oily and combination. The mango and shea butters in the moisturizer are not comodegenic and it’s so lightweight, that the skin simply feels plump and nourished. I have normal-to-dry skin, and I find that the moisture content is appropriate. I feel like my skin is firmer after using this moisturizer for over 30 days, and that my skin has an overall better condition. The only caveat is that it does not contain an SPF, so I recommend using a foundation with a sunscreen in the formula. Like Laura Mercier’s! Bling Factor: Pro: Rich yet lightweight, long-wearing hydration, lovely scent Con: No SPF Price: $68 Buy Again: Yes Packaging: 5 Blings Overall: 5 Blings Hero Ingredient: Mango and Shea Butters Natural/Organic/Vegan: Natural Cruelty Free: Yes Shop:

Trending: Spring Cleaning…And We Don’t Mean Your Baseboards

When you think of “Spring Cleaning,” what pops into your mind? Wearing rubber gloves and pushing a mop to buff your wooden floors to their glowing best? Do you see yourself hunched over on hands and knees scrubbing baseboards? Are you doing a little touch-up painting here and there? Maybe you love the adrenaline rush from spraying the heck out of your windows with a power-wash? Or perhaps you change up the scenery in your home by rearranging furniture, replacing pillow covers and adding fresh flowers. We all know that this is the time of the year for organizing your “stuff.” Maybe it’s time to repurpose or recycle some of that “stuff”… For those of us who are beauty obsessed, the term “Spring Cleaning” brings a different set of rituals to mind. Rather than stripping floors, why not peel away layers of winter skin with a super-charged exfoliant to reveal glowing skin? How are your hands and knees looking, by the way? Do they need a little TLC as well? It’s probably time to give those often-neglected body parts that work overtime some much-needed attention. When you look in the mirror, are you looking a little pale? Have you lost your summer vibrancy? It’s probably time for a little touch up of body glow, bronzer or a self-tanner. A facial mask suited for your skin type may be all the touch-up you need. Lots of women adore power tools, so there is no better time than spring to power up your own tools. Check out a home microdermabrasion system, or a power-charged facial cleansing tool! The needs of our skin change with the seasons, so now is the time to rearrange your skin care priorities. A lighter weight version of your current moisturizer or a toner might be necessary. Your cleanser needs to step up another notch as the days get warmer. Body-baring season is right around the corner. Does your skin need buffing? Firming? Lifting? Spring is the time to get your exfoliation going and keep it glowing with body creams, lotions and oils. Has your hair lost its glow? It probably needs a serious deep conditioning and fresh styling products that add luster and shine to your winter-weary tresses. Spring also dictates that we replace our deep makeup color with fresh pops of color. Reorganize your makeup so that you are in touch with the floral trend of the season. This season, it’s all about Tangerine according to Pantone, so take the time to go through your beauty stash. Maybe you have an orange lipstick that you have been afraid to try. Now is the time to work it! Give your nails a trip to Miami Beach with a mani or pedi topped off in the sassiest shades of tangerine. So, look forward to all of our reviews, recommendations, and raves for skin care, body care, hair and makeup for your “Spring Cleaning” needs. And by all means, share your favorite products with us!

Puerto Rican supermodel Joan Smalls is pretty much perfection when it comes to looking fabulous at the beach or in the pool.

Now, the key is to look like you are not wearing any makeup, so a deft hand is needed for application.

We have rounded up the best of the best of waterproof makeup that will keep you looking flawless without making you look like you are competing in RuPaul’s Drag Race. Products can be found at Nordstrom, Sephora or Ulta. Waterproof Makeup for Face: The best beach makeup for your face includes a lightweight waterproof foundation and or waterproof concealer. A touch of a cheek stain is a great option because it does exactly what it says– stains the skin. Other blush options include creamy blush that is water resistant. Or you may opt to just highlight your best features with a waterproof highlighter for beachy glow. Waterproof bronzer may be the only color you need for your day at the beach, with of course waterproof mascara and a lip color that holds it own as well. Here’s the water-resistant makeup we are living for. SKIN Start with a generous layer of SPF. Cooola Classic Body Organic Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 Fragrance Free $28 70%+ certified organic ingredients with broad spectrum SPF 50 protection.
