Styles and trends may come and go but one thing that always remains the same is the need for incredible beauty products that pamper and perform.  April is but only a few days away and springtime beauty routines are definitely what my skin craves right now.  Just like we have been slowly peeling back the layers, our skin is also ready now to shed the heavier colors and coverage and reach for sheer washes and pretty glow enhancers.  One must-have I'm coveting as we speak is this illuminator from Nars.  It's glowly, ethereal quality imparts the loveliest lit-from-within brightness to my skin.  The same effect can also be found in a stick formula via The Multiple and this Stila All-Over Shimmer Duo.  A great skincare routine is similarly essential to any makeup-optional days you may wish to enjoy.  This silkening liquid from SK-II is rich with nutrients and feeds your skin all the goodness it needs as it hydrates, refines pore size and tone, improves firmness and leaves your face with an unmistakable radiance I just love.  For the body, this luscious whipped concoction from my favorite fragrance brand smells amazing and leaves my skin feeling pillowy and baby soft everywhere.  If you've never tried it, give it a go once and I promise you'll not know how you got along without it.  Don't forget a pretty pout before you head out the door.  Some many makeup lines have really stepped it up lately with newly formulated lip colors the combine treatment, shine and color in the most silkening formulas imaginable.  This lip plumper by Laura Mercier hydrates and moisturizes my lips and smells amazing and, unlike typical lip plumping products, it gives you a cool, minty feeling with no stinging.  Ahhh, I'm so ready for those April springtime days ahead and the great results these blushing beauties will give.  You can shop all the items I'm using in the links above and below and get your glow on too.  Happy spring!
