Spring has officially sprung in Dallas, and it is time to update your makeup bag from products for the chilly winter to the best warm-weather buys! Here are some easy switches you can make to adjust for the upcoming sunny days.
1. Add some glow with the Body Shop’s Radiant Highlighter. Mix a pea-sized amount of this liquid highlighter in with your foundation for a dewy look, or use it as a primer all over your face for an extra fresh, springy look.

2. Use a lighter foundation or BB/CC Cream like the It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream with SPF 50+. Fuller coverage foundations are great for the winter when our skin is looking dull, dry, and rather blah, but (if you feel comfortable) opt for a lighter coverage foundation to show off your new spring sun-kissed glow. But since we don’t want to get too sun-kissed the SPF 50+ is fantastic. This CC Cream is medium coverage, it smells like lemons, and is best for girls with normal to dry skin.

3. Switch up your bold lip from a matte red to a glossy pink. Though it’s always fun to rock a red lip (like the Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella) a glossy pink is more spring appropriate. The Urban Decay Revolution High-Color Lipgloss in Scandal is the perfect, universally flattering bright pink color for spring. This Urban Decay lipgloss paired with a shimmery gold eye will be your go-to spring makeup look.
