The natural face—call it contoured, called it minimal, call it bronzy, or just call it pretty—had quietly powerful moments everywhere from Proenza Schouler to Stella McCartney and Balmain.

Divine in its simplicity, the impossible-to-ignore power lip comes in all shades this season—from glossy reds and shocking pinks to glow-in-the-dark orange.

Spring is here!!! (Not that you can tell with all this chilly weather.) And it is time to update your dark sultry colors from winter to the bright popping colors of Spring! Now you may be going "I don't have the funds to buy amazing make-up all the time." Well here at cottonwood we understand that. So I took some time and talked to my favorite esthetician RACHEL who told me if you can't spend money on all sorts of good make-up you should start by focusing on these 2 main items. GOOD FOUNDATION: We all know that a clean pallet is the best place for an artist to start. But there is more to it than just the exterior beauty. Good foundation is made of different minerals that stay on longer and also doesn't clog your pores, which is better for the health of your skin. GOOD EYELINER: Lately I've been seeing all sorts of magazines coming out with new ways to accentuate the eye and it's always with a dark bold eyeliner. The reason it's a good idea to splurge on a liner is because you don't want something that will bleed into the eye or smudge after your beautiful strokes have been perfectly placed.

Every woman has her favorite brand that she will never stray from, however I hate to be the bearer of GREAT news... but AVEDA make-up is back at Cottonwood!!! Hurray!! Come on in and check it out. Maybe you'll find a "must have."
