Of course, looking great starts with feeling great. It's important to pamper your skin daily with cleansers, washes and moisturizers if you want to look beautiful even without foundation. Be sure to use a gentle cleanser that won't leave your skin red or raw, and follow it up with plenty of lotion. Don't forget about sunscreen – it'll help prevent wrinkles, premature aging and even skin disease.

When it's time to put on makeup, don't overdo it. Try a loose powder foundation, like Jane Iredale Amazing Base Loose, for a light, sheer finish that'll conceal blemishes without looking like you've painted on a new face. Be sure to look for a color that matches your natural skin tone and blend from the center of your face outwards to avoid a harsh line between your complexion and your neck.

As for eye makeup, opt for a natural shadow with just a hint of shimmer for a romantic yet effortless look. Rosy pink, peachy gold and light brown are all easy-to-blend colors that add a touch of drama, but still look subtle and pretty. Line your waterline with dark brown eyeliner and swipe on just a couple of coats of mascara to finish your look.

Finally, lips. A swipe of colored lip balm and a clear gloss should be enough to get you through the day!

Bronzed babe
Bronzer is a great way to give yourself a quick and easy tan. With Jane Iredale So-Bronze, you can get the tanned skin you deserve without the risky side effects of the sun. When you're applying bronzer, however, remember that a little goes a long way. You don't want to appear as if your skin is artifical after application. 

Basic blush
Applying the right shades of blush is another way to improve your complexion. Depending on your mood, you can go with shades as subtle as light pink or as bold as red hues. Just be sure you don't overdo the blush – you don't want to look like the clown at a little kid's birthday party! Use Jane Iredale PurePressed Blush to highlight the apples of your cheeks. A few swipes of this chemical-free product and a rosy glow will show right through your bronzer.

Safety with SPF
While a healthy-colored complexion may seem of the utmost importance to women in the summer months, protecting your skin from the sun should also be one of your top priorities. Using Bioelements SPF50 Face Screen, you can keep your face healthy and prepared for any activity in the bright summer sun. A combination of vitamins provides your face with the protection it deserves.

Keep your complexion beautiful and healthy by using the right products instead spending all summer in the damaging sun – your skin will thank you for it!

1. Keep your skin firm. The key to smooth makeup application is having a healthy foundation to work with. You can make sure your skin is in tip top shape by using Dermalogica's Antioxidant HydraMist. Just spray it on after cleansing, and your face will receive a dose of ingredients that will reduce signs of aging, increase firmness and refresh dehydrated skin.

2. Blot away the shine. The T-zone is notorious for accumulating oil and it's only going to get worse with humidity levels increasing and sweat production rising. Be ready to dab away any surface residue by keeping blotting papers in your purse. If you don't have any available, here's a trick – dryer sheets will get the job done too.

3. Find a new shade of foundation. As the sun begins to tan your skin, your usual batch of foundation will begin to look mismatched with your new tone. Instead of spending money on a whole new product, you can mix in a bit of bronzer to achieve the complexion you need.

Adding a little color to your beauty regimen may help you welcome the warmer weather with a fresh face. When experimenting with new makeup, however, it's important to make sure you're taking the right steps.

One color that's about to be as hot as the summer weather is tangerine – stars everywhere are making their lips pop with this hue. Whether you're heading out for a shopping spree or a night out with friends, you may want to try this trend.

To apply your lipstick properly, you need to make sure you follow a few key steps. 

Prepare
Make sure your lips are ready for bold color stain with proper moisturizer. Dry and damaged lips can be accentuated by colorful hues, so use products like Dermalogica Renewal Lip Complex. This product helps eliminate the signs of aging, and keeps the skin on your lips looking fresh.

Prime
By using primer, you can be certain that your lips are ready for long-lasting product.

Paint
After the first two steps, it's time to apply color to your lips. While neutral colors are always an option, experimenting with tangerine hues may be the right trend for you this season. By dabbing a makeup brush to your lipstick you can apply the color more precisely.

With adventurous lip colors, it's important to keep the rest of your makeup to a minimum. Keep your eye makeup subtle and you may find that you're rocking the trendy tangerine look in no time!

Exploring the hottest makeup trends may help you decide which style is right for you this season. Whether you choose to highlight your lips or your eyes, look into your options before you make a selection.

Add some color
Your garden isn't the only area where color is blooming this season – in fact you may have noticed colors popping up in cosmetics everywhere. Stars are taking a leap with their makeup choices this season, so maybe you should too! Although neons and other vivid hues are hot looks, however, always be careful not to overdo it with bright color schemes.

"[Too much color] can start to look cartoonish, so try to focus on one area of the face, whether it's a nice bright cheek or a nice bright lip or a little something on the eye," makeup artist Melissa Gibson told the Calgary Herald.

Spring and summer skin
When you make changes to your color palette this season, make sure you keep other areas of your beauty regimen in check. If you plan to spend more time outdoors soaking up the sun, remember to keep your face protected at all times. Use Bioelements SPF50 Face Screen to ensure your skin is prepared to handle the strong effects of the sun.

Complexion
Known for her transparent and impeccable skin, this princess has a face worth envying. Lily Collins plays the role of Snow White in the movie Mirror Mirror and her face glows, a look you can capture with the right skincare regimen. Use the gentle regenerative formula in MD Forte Replenish Hydrating Cream to keep your skin in check. 

Lips
Snow White's lips are another defining feature, as red as a rose. How can you mimic this perfect pucker? Make sure your lips are prepared for bold colors by using Bioelements Lip Buff. With this product you can improve the condition of your lips. A combination of sugar cane crystals and essential oils work to give you younger looking lips by exfoliating.

Blush
While she's most famous for her perfectly pale skin, the princess still has a light flush on the apples of her cheeks. With Jane Iredale PurePressed Blush you can highlight the your cheekbones and give your complexion a little extra color.

Just because your prince charming may not come to rescue you from a poisonous slumber doesn't mean that you can't look beautiful. With makeup like Snow White you can resemble one of your favorite characters, and who knows – maybe the prince will follow close behind.

Amber Heard dressed to impress at the event with bold red lips and subtle eye makeup. If you're interested in rocking a vibrant hue on your lips, be sure you keep the rest of your product to a minimum.  

Use La Roche-Posay Nutritic Lips to keep your pucker in prime condition before applying. You don't want to be painting on a beautifully bold color only to have it fall between the cracks of your lips.

Camilla Belle stood out with dark lips and eyes at the event. There is a fine line between goth and gorgeous, and this A-lister managed to stick with gorgeous. Remember that dark colors can look great if they're worn the right way and not overdone. 

Diana Agron also stole the show at the Met event. The star wore a fabulous Carolina Herrera dress and completed her look with subtle and soft cosmetics.

"I wanted her eyes to exude glamour and sex appeal while staying true to her gorgeous personality," makeup artist Georgie Eisdell told Hollywood Life.

Bronzed eyes were another popular look at the ball. Stars like Diane Kruger looked truly stunning sporting this trend. Lea Michele wore a low-cut dress, but her makeup also commanded attention. Whether you plan to wear a subtle or bold look to your next big bash, make sure you're prepared with the right cosmetics.

A recent study by Marie Claire delved into which type of makeup would be best for an interview.

"We've talked a lot about beauty's evolution and biology, but those are genetic givens. In this research, we proved that you can take those features and significantly alter how you're perceived – how much people like you, how confident you appear – using just makeup. It's really astonishing," Harvard psychologist Nancy Etcoff told the magazine.

If you've found yourself struggling to decide on the right look for an interview, you're not alone. The study showed that women who wore red lipstick or smoky eyes to an interview seemed less trustworthy to potential employers. Women who kept their cosmetics natural and conservative, however, seemed more likeable.

Subtle shades of blush can also make a great impression in an interview. With Jane Iredale In Touch Cream Blush ​you can give yourself a healthy glow. You want to keep your face natural for the meeting and this product helps you pull if off.

Use Dermalogica Treatment Foundation to keep your complexion even in your next interview. It also keeps your skin hydrated. This product can blend with your skin and may even give you the flawless look and confidence you need to get a job offer!

By exploring some of the best spring trends, you may find that you've found your new favorite look next time you apply your makeup.

Pretty pucker
Draw attention to your lips with bright hues. A bright layer of lip stain can transform your whole look and it only takes a few minutes. When you're rocking colorful lips, however, it's important to be sure your lips are prepared.

"The key to pulling off any bold lip color is to begin with smooth, conditioned lips, then mute out the natural color," makeup artist Jo Baker told InStyle. "Use an almost dry swipe of foundation from either a brush or sponge, and dab onto the lip. This will give you a neutral starting point."

Bright eyeshadow
Adding new colors to your eyeshadow can also give your routine extra flair. Everything from turquoise to shades of purple are in vogue this season, so although you'll want to be careful not to overdo the color, try to break out of the usual neutral palette. If you choose to accentuate your eyes, dial down the color on your lips. With a Jane Iredale My Steppes Makeup Kit you can choose from virtually any hue.

Cheeks
The warmer weather may have you feeling like you need to add some more color to your complexion. Add subtle hues to the apples of your cheeks to get a sun-kissed look perfect for spring.

Step 1: Wash
The first step in the cleansing process is to fully remove the products from your face because some makeup can stick around after cleansing. Waterproof mascara can be particularly difficult to remove, but with waterproof eye makeup remover it can be easier. Use cotton balls to lightly remove the product.

"Remove your makeup before you wash your face," dermatologist Dr. Jeanine Downie told Marie Claire. "Many cleansers can't take off concealer or foundations completely, especially around the eyes and nose."

Step 2: Cleanse
Make sure your hands are clean before you begin to cleanse your face. Once you're ready, use gentle products like Bioelements Flash Foam Cleanser to wash your face once a day. A combination of pumpkin, papaya and pineapple enzymes work to keep your skin in the best condition. Use lukewarm water to wash your face, so that you don't damage your pores in the process because water that's too hot can also dry your skin out faster.

Step 3: Rinse
Once you've finished washing your face with Bioelements, you need to be sure that the product is removed from your face by rinsing with water. If any residue is left behind, you may clog your pores and develop unwanted blemishes. 

Step 4: Finish
Complete your skincare routine by moisturizing your face after you've cleansed. Use Cellex-C Sea Silk Oil-Free Moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and healthy. With a healthy skincare routine, you can improve the condition of your complexion. You may have a flawless face before you know it!
