Fashion Week - Spring Makeup Trends 2010

Spring is here... I am so happy that designers stuck to their artistic gut and went for refined makeup applications this spring! Its clean, refined, and refreshing... I especially love Gucci and Christian Dior, they had the best looks/collections in my opinion. I cant wait for spring to really hit and recreate these fab ideas.

Without looking traditionally "gorgeous," this makeup "is anti-establishment, yet there's still a luxury to it," explains Terry Barber...

Alexander Wang






Chloe







Marni







Stella McCartney

Trend:

Bleached or stridently bold brows. Skin that's under-refined yet ultra alive. A bare lip and lash. Summer's nude face is about grooming on the verge of grunge - tough, urban and sensually androgynous. She doesn't care a lot, but she cares enough.
