Yesterday was the first day I actually felt like it was Spring; although it's still a bit chilly here in Cheshire, the sky was blue and the flowers in the garden have started to make an appearance. I definitely won't be getting my bikini out anytime too soon but it's nice to start wearing lighter shades and introducing pastel colours back in to my makeup routine.









Here's what I used to create my Spring look:





Majorette Blusher, Benefit, £23.50

You may have read a review I did on this cream blusher last year when it first launched. I did highly rate it at the time but I also mentioned how I felt unlikely to choose it over my beloved powder blushers ...so I'm now eating my words ...I am LOVING this blusher right now. The creamy texture provides a refreshing look on the skin and the peachy pink colour looks great if your rocking a tan or the pale and interesting look. I've been using it every single day over the past couple of weeks. LOVE!





















Naked Basics Palette, Urban Decay, £23.00

Yes, another look using this palette!

For my simple Spring eye look, I used the shades 'Venus' - a slightly shimmy white, over the lids, and I used 'Naked 2' - a matte cool light brown in the crease. Not only does this naturally contour the eyes and add some subtle dimension, but by using a matte with the shimmer, it takes away that glittery and sparkly feel, and makes it more appropriate for a natural daytime look.





























Rimmel Exaggerate Lipliner - Eastend Snob, £3.99

I bought this as an impulse buy last week. It's beautiful all over the lips on it's own as a matte lip colour (as pictured below) but I then found out that it looks even more wonderful underneath my MAC Syrup lipstick, which is a shade I haven't worn for ages, but have a new found love for.

Syrup, MAC Lipstick, £15.00

I dug this out of my collection of lipsticks that I haven't worn in a while. Syrup is a pink lustre lipstick that has a cool violet undertone to it. I actually don't own any other lipstick like this one; the colour is very unique and perfect for Spring and Summer.
