Spring Is In The Air: Products I’m Excited To Use

The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and birds are chirping. Spring is in the air – well, sort of. There may still be some snow on the ground, and the temperature may only be 6 degrees, but after 4+ months of chilly winter, I will take any hope of warmth that I can get.

Working in the cosmetic industry always gets me excited for the changing of seasons – new colours, new products, and new techniques.

While I had eagerly looked forward to cool tones and dark lips for winter, I now find myself itching to use corals, pinks, peaches, and bronzes.

Shopping through my makeup collection, I decided to put together a post on products/ colours I am most excited to use for this upcoming spring/summer season!

Peaches, pinks and corals for spring? Utterly groundbreaking, I know.

I don’t care if these colours are cliché or predictable – to me, they are the epitome of Spring.

• Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush Palette
• Mac “Hi Jinks!” Casual Lip & Cheek Colour
