We’re finally stashing the full-coverage foundations and giving those vampy lipsticks a rest. Spring is all about freshness and renewal – and that includes our beauty routine. Here to help us embrace a new look is Rue’s makeup artist, Natalie Shafie. She’s sharing her top tips for staying gorgeous all season long, no matter what’s on the agenda.
The Vibe: Going-Out Glam
The Kit: Liquid eyeliner and ruby red lipstick.
Get the Look: “I love the feline flick (a less-intimidating cat-eye) and a red lip… oh, and false lashes, of course! The combo is a fast, easy, and classic take on pairing statement eyes and lips.”
The Vibe: 9-to-5 Polish
The Kit: A neutral eye shadow palette and brown eyeliner.
Get the Look: “Start with a tinted moisturizer and concealer, but only where you need it. For the eyes, a wash of taupe shadow and a coffee liner is subtle but still flattering.”
The Vibe: Weekend Fresh
The Kit: An illuminating moisturizer and a highlighting powder.
Get the Look: “It’s all about the glow. Prep skin with a pearlized moisturizer before applying a BB cream. Then dab some highlighter on the cheeks and Cupid’s bow for a dewy finish.”
