christopher-drummond-beautyHints of warmer weather and more sunshine means spring has almost sprung – which means it’s time to start thinking about spring fashion and beauty trends! I am counting down the days until I can break out the sandals and brush some bronzer on my cheeks!

According to celebrity makeup artist Christopher Drummond, creator of the all-natural, vegan, mineral makeup line Christopher Drummond Beauty, Spring 2010 makeup is all about beautiful but muted colors, coral lips, and the bottom eyelid. Here are Christopher’s trend predictions for spring 2010:

Color: Colors such as a slightly shimmery baby blue, a barely there soft pink, and a softly noticeable tangerine color are going to be the “go to” colors for spring/summer. These colors work on everyone and bring more focus to the skin, cheekbones and lips.  Soft colors work well with Spring clothing trends which range from muted and classic to accents of neon.

Lips: Coral, whether bright or muted, is the new classic that will be explored starting this spring/summer and throughout 2010. Also, anyone can wear coral because it is fresh and youthful looking and rich yet subtle at the same time. Try a lot of different corals – there’s one for everyone.

Eyes: Spring and Summer 2010 will be all about the bottom lid.

  • Adding a light amount of colored liner on the bottom lid, which looks fresh and modern and is a way to add color to the eyes without going overboard. (Tip: this color should not match the top lid).
  • Another eye trend is no makeup at all on the bottom. A nice thick liner with rich mascara and a colored shadow on top paired with a bare bottom lash line will open the eyes up and look youthful and fresh.
  • Highlight the inner corners of your eyes to open them up and make you look more fresh and awake.

April is just around the corner, and I can’t wait to start enjoying these Spring trends!  For more info and where to buy, check out the Christopher Drummond website.
