cruelty-free cosmetics brands still ll their lipsticks with carmine, beeswax and other nasty animal-based products. Kat Von D Beauty, however, offers an incredible selection of completely vegan, longlasting matte lipsticks. Their Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lolita and BAUHAU5, offer the perfect terra cotta and plum tones for Spring 2016. Or, opt for a fun cherry apple red lip - as seen on the runways at Dolce & Gabbana and DKNY - with the Studded Kiss lipstick in Adora. As with all matte lipsticks, these can be a little drying.

Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Denition Liquid Makeup - $40.00, urbandecay.com Dewey, awless skin was a universal trend on all runways this season.

Anastasia beverly Hills The Original Contour Palette - $40.00, anastasiabeverlyhills.com Evened skin was accentuated with highlighting and contouring, giving models a freshfaced, but structured look. ABH’s Original Contour palette offers six different shades of contouring powder: three darker shades to mix and match for contouring the face, and three lighter shades for highlighting. The palette is available in three tones: light to medium, medium to tan and tan to deep. Use the darker powders in the areas where you’d like your facial structure to recede — typically the hollows of the cheeks, jawline, temples and sides of the nose. Lighter shades are used to highlight areas like the cheekbones, cupid’s bow of the lips and bridge of the nose. Remember to blend with a big, uffy (synthetic!) brush to avoid any tell-tale contouring lines! 4.
