Okay, so The Bird and the Bee released their new album a few days ago - Ray Guns Are Not Just the Future, which I'm very excited about since I'm a big fan. This also gives me an excuse to discuss the singer, Inara George. I LOVE her style. She's a modern-day Audrey Hepburn and Mia Farrow all rolled into one. I found this picture of her from the Coachella music festival last April, and it just makes me think aaaaahhhh, Spring. The yellow top, cute polka dotted skirt (my personal fave) and her super pretty pixie hair and soft makeup are just lovely.
This makeup look is all about fresh skin and rosy cheeks. To get it, put concealer like Laura Mercier's Secret Concealer, under the eye. Concentrate most of the concealer near the inner corner and along the lash line. Blend thoroughly. Put a sheer tinted moisturizer or foundation with SPF 15 over the rest of the face.

20 will even out your skin without looking all makeup-y. Use an eye base like Laura Mercier Eye Basics in Linen. Smooth on the lid with your finger. This will hide any darkness and not look like you have on ANY eye makeup. (If you want a bit of color, swipe on a shimmery sheer shadow). As a final touch, dot the Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for Cheeks and Lips in Pale Pink on the apples of your cheeks and slick over lips. Voila! A fresh, pretty look for spring.
