SPRING MAKEUP. Spring is around the corner, and all I’m thinking is new and fresh. In beauty terms it means what hot new products I can use this Spring that are so 2013. Here are my picks of the hottest beauty products this Spring, from good skincare for sensitive skin to makeup, perfume, and hair.

Hottest Beauty Products for Spring

SKINCARE

I can’t live without the Simple Skincare wipes. The NEW Simple Radiance Cleansing Wipes are perfume-free and so good at removing my makeup without irritating my skin! There’s nothing worse than heavily-perfumed facial wipes that compete with my perfume… it almost doesn’t make sense. These wipes from Simple are a must-have! They are great for travel, work and anytime you want to refresh.

I also love the NEW Eye Makeup Remover Pads for removing my eye makeup, which I’m addicted to. They are also good to correct makeup mistakes in the morning when I’m lining my eyes with a black liquid eye liner. It’s Simple: wipe, correct, and start over. And lastly from Simple is the NEW Protecting Light Moisturizer with SPF 15… did I mention it’s oil free? I need this moisturizer every day to help protect my skin from the sun. It’s light, fragrance free and it does the job: it hydrates perfectly. It helps to my powder foundation set nicely by making my skin dewy and moist.

Lancôme spring color collection, Ultra Lavande, is now available on lancome.com. This fun, sophisticated collection, designed by Lancôme’s Aaron De Mey, is brimming with groovy shades of violet and sheer pink with pops of silver and gold. New Ombre Magnétique shades and Le Vernis in Violet Groove, as seen on the nails of Lancôme’s newest spokesmodel, Julia Restoin Roitfeld. Also adorably chic—the French Touch Absolu lipstick in the mini disco packaging.

Spring Makeup: This spring gather your friends and your crush together for an afternoon of fun! Re-live your favorite childhood memories of playing games such as Simon says, Red Light/Green Light, Hide and Seek and TV Tag. This spring, Napoleon Perdis challenges you to a game of Napoleon Says on how to wear the latest pastel colors this spring and look fabulous!

To achieve a beautiful golden face, Napoleon says: Using a basic skin care regime on a daily basis will help eliminate dry and dead skin cells that can make the skin look dull. Next, apply a primer like my Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer. Not only does primer keep your makeup looking smoother and lasting longer, but many of ingredients promote skin hydration and will keep your skin looking fresh and radiant. Iridescent creams and liquids are the perfect tool to promote skin luminosity.

“Karl Lagerfeld gave me three key words: Neon Baroque, Chemical Pastels and Liquid Silver. For the lips I used the new Summer 2010 Rouge Allure Lipstick in Genial. This coral shade perfectly matched the Technicolor and Neon Baroque spirit Karl wanted for the makeup at this show.”- Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup.
