Skinimalism, the Beauty Trend to Try this Spring

While scrolling on Pinterest we discovered the trend to try this spring: "skinimalism". In other words, it's a simpler makeup routine that includes only your beauty essentials. This trend is greatly influenced by mask wearing, our current way of life. For fans of the natural look, "skinimalism" is for you and encourages a luminous complexion and healthy glow. No more 14 steps makeup routine, we recommend just a few for the perfect skin.

LUMINOUS COMPLEXION

The key to skinimalism is a natural and luminous complexion. There are several types of products to help you achieve a dewy look; opt for an illuminating foundation from Yves Roche or a glow stick from Chanel for that perfect skin effect. Pro tip: Vitamin C is the # 1 ingredient for a radiant complexion. Before applying your makeup, use a vitamin C sheet mask (you can even find one at Ardène).

NATURAL BROWS

Didn’t have time to book a brow appointment? No problem, this season the natural brow look is more popular than ever. First step, brush through brows with an eyebrow comb from Faces so everything’s in place. Next, apply eyebrow gel to set them. You'll find clear gels at Yves Rocher and Hudson's Bay.

PEACHY CHEEKS

Beautiful for all skin tones, peach blush is the shade of the moment. It's the perfect shade for spring, adding softness and beautifully complimenting an effortless look. Treat yourself and try Nars' iconic Orgasme blush, available at Hudson’s Bay.

NUDE LIP

The final touch of “skinimalism”: a nude lip without frills. We fell in love with lip oils like the one from Clarins for their nutrients and comfort, available at Hudson's Bay. For smaller budgets, Ardène is sure to please with lip glosses under $5.
