Clarins New Opalescence Spring Collection 2014

Clarins have released their new opalescence spring make-up collection, with luminous lip colours, shimmering shadows and beautifully sheer blushes. 

Joli Rouge Brilliant Sheer Shine Lipstick in Coral Tulip and Pink Orchid
Joli Rouge Brilliant Sheer Shine Lipstick in Coral Tulip and Pink Orchid, £18
I love these super sheer, spring-fresh lip colours. They're soft, sheer and bright all at the same time, gorgeous for day wear. In true Joli Rouge style, they are lovely and hydrating on the lip, but they have added shimmer power. Great for adding a subtle fullness to your pout.

The 'Coral Tulip' shade is my favourite for spring, it's bright and zingy without being too much for a pale skin tone.

This sheer pink shade is subtle and pretty, just perfect for adding a 'natural' flush of colour to the lip. 

Mineral Eyeshadow in Smoky Plum
Mineral Eyeshadow in Smoky Plum, £17
Ooohhh, ahhhh! Shimmery delight! This eyeshadow is actually a deep plum colour, but it has so many shimmering, reflective particles in that the flash of my camera makes it look light. Pigment rich, this shadow is intense and smouldering, and really easy to blend. You can also apply wet for a stronger look. It's a must-have for those who love a sexy, smokey eye.

I only applied lightly here, but you could create a more dramatic look by building up the shadow.

Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base
Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base, £26
I cannot express strongly enough how much this radiance cream will enhance your beauty regime. I ALWAYS add a cream like this to my regular foundation, and I always get compliments on my 'dewy' complexion.

What's more, this formula by Clarins smells gorgeous and helps protect the skin against pollution. It's a really versatile product, you can apply before foundation, mix in with foundation, apply a few dabs as a pick me up to the under-eye area, or blend along the cheekbones for an added glow.

Multi-Blush Cream Blush in Peach and Grenadine
Multi-Blush Cream Blush in Peach and Grenadine, £18
Cream blushes are the perfect way to add a dewy flush of colour to the cheeks, instant healthy glow at your fingertips. The soft peach shade is perfectly warming for light and medium skin tones, while the grenadine offers a punchier blush for a more dramatic look.

Clarins Limited Edition Eye Quartet Mineral Palette
Limited Edition Eye Quartet Mineral Palette, £31 
This new limited edition quad palette is beautiful and versatile, the shades can be used for a striking, smouldering evening look or a fresh day look. The colours are well-suited to blue and green eyes, as the purples and grey tones will really make them pop. As with the Smoky Plum shadow, you can dampen the applicator for a richer application.
