Smashbox L.A. Lights Blendable Lip + Cheek Colour is a multipurpose product that will give you a perfect glow.
I'm a huge fan of BB creams. My go-to is Elizabeth Arden's Visible Difference Multi-Targeted BB Cream for its a natural look.
When it comes to hair I adore Kevin Murphy's Hair Resort Spray for the ultimate "day at the beach hair". Spray it in for a sexy, messy do.
Hamilton Brooks from Hamilton Brooks Hairdressing says "it's all about adding texture - think 90s grunge with shaggy long layers" and ponytails that are "not too perfect".
Danny Pato from D & M notes the "rock chic lob" (or long bob) is still going strong.
Zoe Clark from Dry & Tea believes braids are taking the world. Another big trend is "lived-in waves" and she suggests enhancing dry texture and volume with Redken's Pillow Proof Express Primer.
Keep that "do" going strong with a handy can of Pureology's Fresh Approach Dry Shampoo. It's perfect for busy people.
Have fun with nails as well. Imogene Bevan from Pop Nails says go for "fine, single-line art that is "chic and minimal". Marbling is huge and key colours are blush, boysenberry and ice blue.
I adore OPI's icy cool pastel blue, Gelato.
Moisturise that apres winter skin with Oasis Beauty's Rhino Repair, a multi-tasking skin saviour in a tube.
Must-have beauty tools include Mecca Cosmetica's eyelash curler to open up
the eyes.
For a flawless base use MAC's #196 slanted brush. MAC's Kiekie Stanners says you can achieve a perfectly seamless finish thanks to "buffing" with this brush.
Re-condition the body back to perfection with Pure Fiji's utterly divine Coconut Sugar Rub.
So try these fab new beauty looks and say hello to spring.
Treat yourself. You know you're worth it.
