I love all the options. They all look great!
The Estee Lauder colors are beautiful. But I also like the LOreal colors.
I am going to experiment a little more this spring, because I usually go with the browns. Need more color!
I love, love, love eye make-up. I am doing soft pinks for spring but I am looking forward to rocking bold gold and blue hues for summer. Thanks for the tips.
