Spring Edit // Light Make-Up

•  Springing into a new month tomorrow April will hopefully bring sunshine because all us Irish girls need it! I love the Spring/Summer time and when it comes to make-up you really want a wash of colour and minimal makeup.  



               



Base: For the base you want a nice, dewy foundation that still gives you a flawless face, usually when I think about Spring you usually look at BB and now CC creams but one brand that really is amazing for foundations is Bourjois. I've re-purchased Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum in 51 which is amazing! My favourite light coverage foundation. Bourjois brought out a new 123 Perfect CC Cream in 31 which every YouTuber and Blogger has raved about and I'm no different, it gives decent coverage and looks like you've nothing on but the only downside is the shades but mix it with some other foundation and it'll be perfect!! The concealer I've chosen is 17 Stay Time 18 hour concealer which isn't as much coverage as collections but  their lightest shade "extra fair" is brilliant for pale people.           



                                



Cheeks: It's all about the pop of colour in Spring. Of course I have Topshop cream blush in "head over heels" which is my absolute favourite because it isn't a pink! Nars blush in "Orgasm" which is a lovely pinky colour with shimmer really nice on the cheeks. For an all over bronzer I use the Topshop Bronzer in "Illuminator" which has 3 different shades in it, a highlight, a light brown and a darker one for bronzer. Benefit Hoola Bronzer mini is what I use to contour and I've been loving it lately!!               

    My favourite highlighter is MUA Undress Me highlighter which is really shimmery but I really like it plus it's cheap


                   



EYES: For simple eyes I swipe 17 Metallic Eye in "Wild Bronze" which is really nice gold colour with my blue eyes, on top I use MAC in "All that glitters" on top which is a sheeny gold shadow. I also really like to use Wet'n'Wild "walking on eggshells" palette which has a highlighter, crease and eyelid colour and they're sooo pigmented!      



                                          



LIPS: It'll be no surprise that my favourite lipstick is ....*drumroll please* Wet'n'Wild in 'Coral-line'  THE perfect orange/red, my second favourite is MAC in 'Lickable' as it's a lovely pop of colour which is a blue toned pink and really creamy!!
