The Nordstrom Beauty Spring 2011 Essentials show on 4*2*11 @Valley Fair was Bright. Bright scents, bright complexions, bright lips & nails and bright eyes. Let me shine a light on this Spring's must haves!
Bright Scents: Bright notes of citrus, raspberry & pink pepper mix with lush floral notes of freesia, rose and lily; finish with sensual dry-downs of musk and woods accords.
Bright Complexions: Slough away flakes with a gentle exfoliate, then use an at-home peel to purify and brighten. Finish it off with a hydrating mask to moisturize your Winter-dry skin. Results are a softer, healthier, more radiant complexion.Bright Lips and Nails: Bright lips made the biggest statement on the runway this season. It's easy to take it to realway with variations of brazen colours like tangerine, watermelon and hot pink.
Bright eyes: New advance technology in eyeshadows gives a velvety, creamy finish. Don't be afraid to accent your eyes with shimmery shades of gold, silver, copper, coral or any other iridescent shade.
