Is She Even Wearing Makeup? Makeup
A five-minute moisturizer-only routine is the stuff dreams are made of, and the models who walked the runway for Michael Kors at NYFW seemed to nail this fantasy with fresh, seemingly makeup-free complexions and a delicate flush.

Beauty blogger Sona Gasparian recreates the perfect natural face by mixing L'Oreal True Match foundation with Kate Somerville Dilo Oil, applying it with a foundation brush. The oil thins out the foundation, creating the sheerest possible coverage. Gasparian then uses a highlighter close to her natural skin tone -- LORAC Perfectly Lit Oil Free Luminizing Powder in Spotlight Plein Feux. A bit of Urban Decay Baked Bronzer applied in the crease of the eye with a fluffy brush, and Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine finishes the natural look. See the full tutorial here.

White-Eyed Wonder
Abstract strokes at Kate Spade, light dusts at Altuzarra and an ethereal application at Tibi -- three officially makes white eye makeup the must-try trend for spring. Wakeup for Makeup's Ivy Boyd recreates this dramatic eye look that works for both winter and spring.

First apply a cream shadow, such as NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk, to the entire lid, using your fingers to blend. Next, top with a matte white shadow (Boyd uses White from the LORAC Pro Palette). For added definition, Boyd adds Slate from the same palette to the outer corners and crease, and blends with a fluffy brush. White eyeliner, like Sephora Nano Eyeliner, brings an extra pop of intensity. You can either finish with mascara, or add an extra flourish with a glittery topcoat like Boyd's LORAC Liquid Lustre and false lashes.
