Lauren Conrad Makeup Tutorial

Today we will be doing a look featuring the beautiful Lauren Conrad. She is absolutely stunning and her makeup always looks fabulous! It is rumored that Lauren only wears drugstore makeup! She always has a neutral look so I thought this look would be great for spring! Let's get started!

Steps to achieving this look!

* What I'm using will be in parentheses

1. Moisturize your face. You want healthy and moisturized skin so your makeup doesn't look flaky or cracked. ( Neutrogena moisturizer for combination skin)

2. Apply your face primer. This will keep your makeup looking fresh all day. (Makeup Forever HD Primer)

3. Apply your foundation. Lauren's skin look absolutely flawless so be sure to use a full coverage foundation. (Smashbox "Camera Ready" Foundation)

4. Now prime your eyes. This will keep the shadows on all day. (Urban Decay Primer Potion)

*This step is optional since you will be using a base*

5. Apply a shimmery, beige base all over your eyes. (Bare Study Paint Pot by Mac)

6. Sweep a golden, beige eyeshadow all over your lid. (All That Glitters by Mac)

7. Next, using a black eyeliner, line your lower lash line. Stay as close to the lash line as possible. Remember, only line about halfway. Don't go all the way to the inner corner. (Smolder by Mac)

8. Now we are going to line the upper lash line. Using a black gel liner, draw a medium- thick line across the upper lash line. Start out thinner at the inner corner and gradually get thicker towards the outer corner. Wing out the liner slightly. (Blacktrack by Mac)

9. Mascara time! Lauren's lashes have a lot of volume and length so make sure your mascara covers that. I recommend always buying drugstore mascaras. High end mascaras are great too, but you can find amazing mascaras at drugstores that are the same quality if not better! You can save a lot of money and find a great mascara. (Covergirl Lashblast Fusion)

10. Lauren has beautiful tan skin so be sure to use bronzer! (Nars Laguna Bronzer)

11. Don't forget your blush! Her blush is a beautiful pink flush that works great with her bronzer! (Nars Orgasm Blush)

12. Finally, finish with the lips. She has pink/nude lips most of the time. (Angel lipstick by Mac) and add some gloss! (Nars Turkish Delight lipgloss)

Spring Makeup Tutorial

Can you lovelies believe that its already SPRING? Personally, my favorite season! Today we will be doing a tutorial using fun, spring colors! To me, spring is all about being light and fresh. So today's tutorial will reflect that! Let's begin!

**We will be using this picture of Selena Gomez as the model. She is so beautiful and she always wear light, beautiful makeup. She is stunning and always looks so great, with or without makeup! I think she wears this look really well.

1. First, prime your face. I'm using Makeup Forever HD Primer. I find that this works best for me but you can use whatever you have. Also prime your eyelids, under your brow bone, and under your lower lash line. This will keep your shadows on all day. I'm using Urban Decay's Primer Potion.

2. Now apply your favorite foundation. For a light, but flawless coverage, I will be using Laura Mercier's tinted moisturizer. As a setting powder, I'm using a Mac Mineralized Skinfinish Natural.

3. Next take any eyeshadow brush you own and take a light, golden- bronze color. Sweep this all over the lid. I'm using Birthday Suit from the Too Faced Naked Eye Palette.

4. Now take a fluffy crease brush and blend a shimmery light brown into your crease. I'm using Woodwinked by Mac. I absolutely love this color. It looks great in the crease.

5. Take an angled brush and a dark brown eyeshadow and, while staying very close to the lash line, sweep it lightly under the lashes. I'm using Espresso by Mac

6. Line your waterline with a brown eyeliner. I'm using Brownboarder by Mac

7. Coat your lashes with your favorite mascara. Remember, you don't want super volume or ridiculous length. This is a natural look and should remain simple. I recommend a Lash Discovery mascara.

8. As you can see in the picture above, Selena has a light pink blush on. It gives a nice flush without being overpowering. I'm using Well Dressed by Mac. This is a little different than Selena's, but it will work nicely.

9. Apply a light pink/nude lipstick. I'm using Angel by Mac.

10. Lastly, apply your lipgloss. It should be pretty clear but with a light pink tint. I'm using Underage by Mac.

Thanks for reading! Hope this tutorial works for you! If you decide to try this look out, leave me a comment below! Leave a picture if you like! Thanks for reading dolls and happy spring!
