The Beauty Refresh-What I’m Loving for Spring

If you are like me, Spring is the perfect excuse to update your look–warmer weather always inspires me to Marie Kondo my makeup drawer in exchange for some new goods that spark joy–here are the trends that caught my eye.

Powdery lips are basically a matte lip version 2.0. This soft, diffused look is like a blotted lipstick with better staying power. MAC and Too Faced have a wide range of colors from whispery pinks to deep berries and mauves.

With glowy skin still on trend, face oils are must for almost everyone, either at night or used sparingly under makeup. One of my favorite brands Sunday Riley has a new one with Vitamin C for extra glow.

Luxury organic makeup? Bet you’d never think you could find top-notch makeup that was free of parabens, petroleum and other questionable ingredients. Both Kjaer Weis and Westman Atelier have beautiful, effective products that you can feel good about using. I am obsessed with the way they feel and the beautiful packaging.

Metallics eyeshadows continue to be an easy way to add a bit of shine without looking too glittery or frosty. These two new spring colors caught my eye with their gorgeous luminous finish from perennial favorite Laura Mercier.

Thinking of cutting your hair? This textured bob on Mandy Moore is making me want to shed my long hair for a change.

Virtue Shampoo and Conditioner created some major buzz for me when another beauty obsessed friend told me it will change your hair–for real. No wonder it’s an Allure Best of Beauty winner.

Looking for an alternative to nude nails for spring? OPI does it again with oh-so soft and wearable pastels from lilac to baby blue, just in time for wedding season.
