My Fresh-Faced Fruit Inspired Makeup Picks For Spring

This year, I decided to tackle my foundation fears head-on and got color matched at a local makeup counter. Although I usually prefer stick foundations, I switched to liquid to get the best match for my skin tone, and let me tell you, it’s been a game changer. It has made playing with makeup so much more fun!

Lately, I’ve been loving a soft, fluffy brow paired with mascara and a monochromatic blush and lipgloss combo. It’s the perfect simple look for working from home, brainstorming new art ideas, or updating my Etsy shop.

Here’s what I’ve been reaching for lately:

• Berry-toned blushes: Fenty Beauty Cream Blush in Summertime Wine and Raisin Standardz

• Berry-toned lip glosses: CoverGirl Yummy Gloss in "You’re Just Jelly", Maybelline Lifter Gloss in 014 Heat, 025 Taffy, and 024 Bubble Gum

• Bright red-orange hues when I’m feeling bold: Fenty Cream Blush in Daiquiri Dip paired with Maybelline Lifter Gloss in 023 Sweetheart

What I love most is how these colors complement the palette I’ve been working with in my latest collection of hand-painted fruit prints. These 12 vibrant illustrations add so much warmth to any space, especially in kitchens or breakfast nooks.
