No more "pore-pitiful me." At Taaz, life is a perpetual pretty party, rain or shine. Bring out your most fabulous, high-fashion face for spring with these makeup tricks.
"Spring is about total renewal: find your best self by undergoing a makeover in our virtual makeup and hairstyling studio."
For a spring-perfect look circa 2010, fake perfect skin. Blend concealer under the eyes, down the bridge of the nose and around the mouth to play up your facial contours. Follow with a water-based foundation and apply bronzing powder beneath the contours of your cheeks. Temprorarily tighten and tone large pores by splshing your face with ice water and applying moisturizer with gentle tapping motions before applying foundation.
Super-long locks look foxy when finger-raked for an imperfect, windswept finish. Add thickening lotion to damp strands to create messy texture. If you have short hair, loose waves are easily achieved when you go to bed with damp hair coiled in Princess Leia-inspired buns covering each ear. In the morning, unpin them and tousle with your fingertips.
Bring out doe eyes with tons of fake lashes tucked into the lashline. Dove grey shadow is a softer alternative to black or brown. Also try steely blue or plum on your lids for a dramatic, Cali-girl effect. For springy allure, blend lilac eye shadow on the eyelids and balance the look with nude matte lipstick.
Skip bronzer and get your glow from a sheer cream blush, applied to the apples of the cheeks with your finger tips. A good moisturizer will prevent the color from caking. Spring 2010 makeup is about looking alluringly natural. --Stephanie Simons
