Warm Up Your Complexion: Sonia Kashuk Spring Awakenings Face Palette

This Sunday, March 20th, marks a special moment----the first day of spring!!

It's been a very long-gggg, cold-dddd winter.

Haven't you had enough? We have. So, let's bring on warmer, sunnier days ahead with a beauty budget buy:

Sonia Kashuk's Spring Awakenings Face Palette ($24.99, at Target).

We like this adorable all-in-one face painting kit. And here's why:

1. It's so darn convenient. Everything you need is right in one little container. Easy to throw into your bag. And it's slim and sleek and designed with a cute wicker cover.

2.The colors are chosen for you. You don't have to see what goes with what. It's all there....a natural glow for the eyes, cheeks, and lips. You get 4 eye shadows---matte tan, matte chocolate, metallic bronze and sparkling champagne, a deep brown eye liner, coral blush, and 3 lip glosses---nude, cocoa, and rosewood.

3. Sonia Kashuk is one of model Cindy Crawford's favorite makeup artists. And as we like to say, if Sonia's makeup is good enough for Cindy, then it's good enough for us. We think the Spring Awakenings Face Palette is a great beauty budget buy. You get pretty earthy shades that aren't overdone, and perfect for the girl-on-the-go!

Here's what Cindy Crawford wears for her daily makeup routine. And it's very similar to the Sonia Kashuk makeup palette we talking about:

1. Brown eye shadow. Cindy Crawford says that brown is your best friend. "It's less harsh than black, it goes with everything, and it's impossible to mess up. For day, I do variations of brown shadow, either matte or shimmer."

2. Nude lips. Yes, the look is very polished when you can nail the right tone. "A neutral mouth looks really sophisticated, but you have to pick your color carefully so you don't look washed out. I like beigy pinks that are one shade darker than my natural skin tone. I almost always wear gloss, and save lipstick for special occasions."
