Yes, it's Christmas Eve and the last thing you want to think about is what to wear on your face come spring, but trust us knowing some of the key spring looks will help you out massively come January.
The party season sees us all caking our faces in masses of glitter, eyeliner and lipstick to go out, but we'll all be winding down our beauty regimes in the new year.
A major look for spring is flushed cheeks, with the rest of your make-up kept pretty simple. A dewy glow will look great against lovely spring background.
The catwalks were awash with rosy glowed cheeks this SS09, as designers matched the bright colour palette of their clothes with a 'pinched cheek' effect, which left models looked flushed.
Spring is all about uplifting your mood and feeling healthy as the weather starts to get warmer and the days get longer, so to portray this in your beauty look, flushed cheeks and rosy lips are the key ingredient.
Seeing as we're in the midst of a credit crunch, glowing like a pro is actually easier than you would think, as there are some great cheek and lips stains out there that will last you ages.
Benetint by Benefit for example is the most well known, but Maybelline have a range of Dream Mousse cheek colours and Fake Bake have a fab new cheek tint, called legal sunburn that will give you a rosy glow in no time.
