Last year's catwalk trend, the 'no-makeup' makeup look, has evolved slightly in to the natural makeup look - a hint more colour, but nothing to shout about. Or is it?
When models began strutting down the runway last year looking like they were bare faced, we thought things couldn't be as they seemed. Sure enough, behind the 'no makeup' look, was in fact a great deal of makeup. It's kind of like leaving the house with carefully crafted bed-head; whilst it looks like you haven't ran a brush through your hair, it's in actual fact taken 20 minutes of precise teasing, pulling and spraying.
We're secretly quite glad the 'no-makeup' look is on it's way out, what's the point of having all of these gorgeous shades and products sitting around begging to be used? So we're a little bit torn about the next big thing for Spring - the natural look. Think neutral shades you'd find in nature. Pink toned lips, sands, mochas and coffees for your eyes and bronzers or blushers that just enhance your natural skin tone.
On one hand, you can't deny, done correctly like the pictures above it's stunning. And it's a look anybody can rock, regardless of skin colour, hair colour or personality. But what about those hot pink lips for spring? Or bright turquoises or smokey bronzes for your eyes? Is the natural look really just playing it safe, instead of injecting a bit of pazazz and colour to your look?
As always, you're the experts, so why not tell us what you think of the natural look? Do you like it, or will you be opting for a brighter look this spring?

I love the natural look, when you look effortlessly good. I find it actually harder to buy products for this look though.
