The spring is finally here – officially and irrevocably! The time of cute coats, colorful berets, bright stockings – and of course vivid spring makeup. This look was inspired by the yellow & orange flowers that popped up on my lawn. :)
INGREDIENTS
- Eyes: Circus Girl, Prima Donna, Duchess eyeshadows by Lime Crime; turquoise eyeliner pencil
- Lips: Coral lipstick + Prima Donna
- Face: Foundation Primer, concealer, foundation, peach blush
Eyes
Lime Crime magic dusts play so well with each other that you can create totally new shades just by mixing existing colors. In this look, I created a vibrant orange by layering yellow (Circus Girl) over hot pink (Prima Donna). Start out by curling lashes and apply mascara to top & bottom. Prep the lids with Foundation Primer and sweep Circus Girl across the lid up to the eyebrows. With a medium brush, apply Prima Donna from lashes and into the crease. Blend out in circular motion. With a smaller brush, paint on Duchess, extending outwards. Apply winged black eyeliner (optional). Add a touch of Circus Girl on inner corners with a thin brush. Fill waterline with a turquoise pencil.
Face
Moisturize skin, apply Foundation Primer and foundation. Concealer for dark spots and under the eyes. Liven up the face with orange-peach blush, finish off with Pixie Dust. Fill in eyebrows as usual.
Lips
Did you know?
Most Lime Crime magic dusts are multi-purpose, and can be used on eyes or lips. To create your own unique lipcolor, mix the pigment into clear gloss or layer over your favorite lipstick.
I started out with a lipstick that was already pretty hot pink and amped it up by throwing some Prima Donna magic dust in the mix. Paint your lips as usual and add the pigment with a small lip brush. Add as much as you like, until you achieve desired results. Voila!
Ooo this is such a great look, perfect for spring!

Your Foundation Primer is amazing! I love how it feels going on, and it works like magic. I thought just using foundation made me look better, but I didn’t know how MUCH better I could look until I used your Foundation Primer first! Amazing! Thanks so much for creating such an awesome product!

Thanks for the Lip Tip! I was just gonna ask if you planned on making matching lip colors!
I featured the Prima Donna Magic Dust on my site because you stuck a business card in my make-up box @ Dances of Vice. I watched you apply make-up while we were backstage and I really love your products!
Very pretty look! The colors are so bright and vivid!
Awesome! <3
I love the hairpiece you’re wearing in the first picture! Is it any of the brands you feature?
Waaah I wish we could get the spring here too. I had to wade trough the snow to get to the bus stop today. And I just love this makeup. <3 I really have to place an order for Lime Crime soon.

Always fabulous, my dear! You should be a poster child for shunning the sun–as a fellow pale-skinned girl, I find you inspiring!
This is one of my favorite looks yet. Awesome.
Beautiful! I love your tutorials! As a professional belly dancer I love being creative with makeup and your style is always inspiring. This look would go great with a couple of my costumes…hmm…
Xenia. How do people react to your unique fashion sense when you go out in public? Do they stare a lot? I saw a girl that wore bright clothes and colored make-up once and I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. She was shiny…very shiny. …and I liked it.

I read Twilight bitches and now I know what girls really want. I’m going to sparkle bitches and be over bearing, controlling, and watch her sleep.
:-p
Thanks so much for this fab look. I used this tutorial today and I look amazing!
