Loose buns and ponytails are ageless and never go out of style. Instead of spending a lot of time in the bathroom trying to get your hair to cooperate and actually look good for work or that date go for an easier choice. Buns and ponytails are versatile because you can make them look casual or chic. And they offer a lot of unique options that can change your look with minimal effort.

But if a bun or ponytail aren’t your style go for long waves. Get rid of the straightening iron if you haven’t before now. You want straight but full hair, but a little waves takes it to the top. You can either use Velcro rollers or just wind your hair around a full barreled curling iron to achieve this look. If you think you’re hair is to long for waves don’t fret because if you keep it well trimmed you’ll still be in style.

As for makeup Red and coral lipsticks are really trendy. Red is a confident look that can make you stand out. It is still going to be stylish year round and it looks great on everyone. But remember when you wear a bold lipstick to keep eye makeup light. And be sure to remember that it is best to wear red lipstick with outfits that are darker in colors because it balances you out. And coral lipsticks are no longer for your great-aunt Martha they are hip.

Another thing to notice particularly on the West Coast are long eyelashes. It doesn’t matter if you buy the temporary or permanent false lashes or if you use products make eyelashes grow. Whatever option you pick you will be in style. But, if you want the long lash look without the gluing or the hassle just make sure to layer your mascara. Several coats of mascara will make your lashes seem thicker and longer.

Although you want to have some color on your face don’t go overboard. Bronzers can give your face a radiance and make it seem natural but don’t use too much. You don’t want to look stupid so just try layering your bronzer with a light tanning crème with a tinted moisturizer or a bronzing powder. And remember when you wear bronzers go light with the rest of your makeup. And for a great look with your bronzed skin pair it with pink lipgloss and mascara.

Spring is about shimmer and that means your eyes and cheeks particularly on tanned skin should be the first goal. Don’t go overboard but you’re face should have some glow. You shouldn’t look pasty but you don’t have to spend tons of time in the sun to accomplish that. There are great self-tanners that help you achieve that glowing skin but salon tans are still the best answer.
