Spring Makeup How-To: Light, Fresh Coral Makeup

Hi fellow makeup junkies! Today's look is a very light and fresh Spring makeup, using light peach and coral shades. This look is so different from my normal heavy black eyeliner looks I do day to day and I'm really digging it! I love the fact that there is no dark eyeliner used on the eyes, and that combined with the light colors and nude liner on the waterline, create a very fresh wide eyed look that is perfect for the warmer months ahead. To go along with the eyes, and to also keep with the light and fresh feel of the look, I kept the rest of the face relatively natural and glowing with a shimmery bronzer and highlight on the cheeks and a light pink/coral creamy lipstick on the lips. I'm very happy with how this entire look came out and it makes me really want to try more eye looks without eyeliner in the future.

How To: EYES

-Apply primer and/or a nude base all over the lid and underneath the lower lash line. This will help your shadows not only last longer, but also show up more vibrant and true to color.

-Apply a matte cream shadow underneath the brow to highlight and lift the eyes. 

-On a large fluffy brush, blend a matte light peach shadow into your upper crease to act as your blending/transition shade.

-Take a slightly deeper peach shade and apply it into your crease, keeping right under the previous shade. You also want to apply this color from inner to outer corner on the lower lash line, bringing it down as far as you're comfortable.

-Apply a light shimmery peach shadow all over your lid, keeping the very outer corner blank.

-Take a matte hot coral/peach shadow and apply it right into your socket line and outer corner, making sure to blend it out softly. You also want to run this color from inner to outer corner, sticking very close to the lash line so the other shadow peeks out from under.

-Apply a shimmery nude liner to your waterlines and curl your lashes, then apply lots of mascara to the upper and lower lashes.

How To: FACE

-Using a damp sponge, apply a medium-full coverage foundation to your skin. Pick a foundation that feels light on the skin, yet creates a flawless canvas.

-Use a peach toned concealer to hide any dark circles under the eyes, then use a concealer that is 1-3 shades lighter than your foundation shade to highlight- apply under eyes and down the center of the face.

-Set the light concealer with a matching powder, then set the rest of your face with a powder that matches your skin tone.

-Use a bronzer with a sheen to it and apply to the cheekbones, sides of the temples, and under the jaw bone.

-Use a golden based highlighting powder on the tops of your cheekbones and down  the bridge of your nose.

-Fill in your brows keeping them defined, but natural.

-Apply a light pink/coral lipstick on your lips to complete the look. The Too Faced lipstick I used is actually a more wearable, more comfortable dupe of MAC's Viva Glam Nicki 1.
