One simple way to change up your look: Spring’s pretty shadows. A few swipes of color give you a whole lot of wow.

Surprisingly flattering, a rosy shade brightens eyes by neutralizing dark shadows.
Trace matte brown shadow along the outer “V” of the eye—from crease to lash line—then dust subtle shimmery pink on lids to create depth, says New York City celebrity makeup artist Kristofer Buckle. Finish with rosy cheeks and lips.

Sparkle with desert metallics like rich copper and burnt amber.
Sweep a rich metallic from your lash line up to the crease and buff with a shadow brush. Then warm up your complexion with bronzer for a total goddess effect.

You? Wear blue? Yes! It lends that beautiful just-back- from-vacay look.
Sea shades like aqua and turquoise make eyes cast a glow and seem brighter. Blend shadow over your lid, then smudge along the lower lash line with a shadow brush. Apply a couple of extra coats of mascara, Buckle says: “It diffuses a bright hue like fishnet stockings, making it wearable.” (Relax, colorphobes!) Now all you need is nude lip gloss.
