A few warmer days and the start of spring have allowed us to boldly consider lightweight coats, delicate fabrics, and light-colored clothing. When it comes to makeup, it's also worth opting for a light and natural look, as this always contributes to a fresh and rested complexion.
In today's installment of mineral makeup, we propose a combination of two subtle and very feminine colors: lavender and pastel purple are shades with which we can slowly enter the spring season.
1. The foundation of my makeup is the Pretty Neutral clay primer, which not only visually smooths the complexion but also makes makeup easier to apply and last longer. It's best to apply the primer in a thin layer with a flat-top brush. The next step is mineral foundation. For my makeup, I chose an illuminating foundation, which gives the skin a radiant, satin finish. I also used a flat-topped brush for this.

2. The first color accent is pink. It's best when it doesn't clash with the eyelid and lip color, so I chose the Nude shade for my makeup. It's a light, muted shade. It suits most skin tones and goes with most makeup looks. The final step is to set the foundation with Pretty Matte mattifying powder. I pick up a small amount with a kabuki brush and sweep it over the areas most prone to abrasion: my T-zone and chin.

3. I start my eye makeup by dabbing a little Pretty Glow illuminating powder onto my eyelids. This step will help the shadows last longer and blend better.

4. Using a flat brush, I apply the light purple mineral eyeshadow Lollipop to the lower lid to create a color frame for the entire eye makeup. I accentuate the center of the upper lid with the Lilac eyeshadow. The light, luminous purple will contrast the deep purple of the Lavender eyeshadow in the crease, giving the eye a three-dimensional look and making it appear larger.

5. I finish my eye makeup by highlighting the lower lid with the same shade of purple and applying mascara. I apply a clear lip gloss to my lips to give them a luscious look.
