Spring Fling
Out with the shiver and in with the shimmer. Makeup artist Kristie Streicher tells us how.
 Though the weather has bounced from warm to freezing to downright blazing, it is Spring. And even if your wardrobe hasn't been able to reflect that consistently, your makeup can. So, we caught up with Warren Tricomi's makeup artist Kristie Streicher—who calls Julia Roberts, Lauren Conrad, Juliana Margolis and Molly Sims clients—to find out how to keep your look fresh as these supposed April showers that must be happening somewhere. Streicher says: "Spring is all about color and shimmer. I love the look of shimmer on eyes & cheeks. Lips are bright and bold. Skin is glowing and flawless."  "Metals in sheer copper, gold and silver shimmer beautifully on the eye, while lips are bold with pink or fuschia. Try Face Stockholm Eye Dusts in 'Curious,' 'Treasure' and 'Storm.' Skip the lip liner and instead, layer on the colour gently, applying with your finger to get a natural, vibrant look."  "Dior Addict Ultra-Shine Lipcolour in Shiniest 'Pomegranate' is a favorite. Pair your pink lips with a doll-like blush.Nothing says spring like a bright wash of pink on cheeks. Lighter skins will glow with bubble-gum shades and darker skins will look luminous in richer tones."   "Lorac blush in Desire looks great on light to medium skin tones and has just the right amount of shimmer. For those richer tones I love Kevyn Aucoin Pure Powder Glow in 'Neolita.'"  "Get some colour back into your face with the help of a light-diffusing foundation. This will provide the coverage you need as well as give your skin a healthy, dewy appearance. Try Vincent Longo's Liquid Canvas Dew Finish Foundation in 'Warm Beige.' It's part foundation and part moisturizer so it not only creates a flawless complexion but also protects against sun damage through the built-in SPF 15."
