^^ I am so with you on the bright eyes, with the yellows and greens! That's exactly what I've been gravitating towards and prepping up for lately. I did a toned down version at work the other day (I work in an office environment). I also recently purchased Golden Lemon pigment and a Wondergrass e/s!

My fav MAC artist at the bloomys counter and I were talking and she was saying that bold bright lips and eyes were in for the summer and that dark skin tones could really benefit, that we shouldnt be afraid to experiment. So I purchased Lustering and Sweetie Lipstick...I am loving Sweetie right now. I might venture and get some more eyeshadows and lipsticks but I will take it one step at a time

Excellent post, I am really feeling bold lips but cool pink, fuschia, violet hues and reds next fall. For bright eyeshadows, I'll wear warmer pinks so I don't look clownish. Too much bright on me will make me feel clownish and I think beauty starts with attitude and if I don't "feel" something, it won't rock right. I also am looking at matte shadows very closely

I love the bold, bright lip trend w/ a neutral eye. I also love to rock bright e/s during the springtime. You also can never go wrong w/ a simple, sweet and feminine look IMO.

I think I'm going to try bold pink lips and maybe, just maybe, a little pop of color for my eyes. I'm taking baby steps lol

Why do I feel like spring/summer makeup trends are the same every year?
brights/ pastels/ bronzes etc.
I'm forcing myself to go out and buy bright colors even when I think I'll never wear them. My next makeup purchase WILL be a bright purple l/s. I'm thinking Violetta (PRO).

pinks pinks pinks on the lips and cheeks... and of course corals and bright reds too.
i am also scouting out bright summer-y nail polishes like candy pinks, red/orange shades.
Glowing skin from bronzers. I love Bronze CCB on top of dewy skin.
I want a coral blush and I have coral pro shadow.. just need to find the right base.
Thanks for this topic!!

Passionate is a great color but i feel post haste appears much more vibrant on darker skintones. If you have a CCO near you then that one is on sale for like 9 bucks!
I can't wait till summer, i'm itching to wear my Dame Edna lipsticks in public, and i have to say i cracked....i bought the two lipsticks from the new Color line this week....they're amazingly gorgeous!

I dunno, I have a whole set of bright eye shadows, but when I go out, I keep doing neutral and bronzes... What's wrong with me?!

I have post haste and I'm not too impressed by it. Not as pigmented as I would like. But its a pretty color.
