Guide to Beauty

Your

Every girl should hit refresh on her beauty outlook a time or two annually, and never a better moment than in the rejuvenation of springtime.

Get ahead of the curve with this shorthand guide to the season’s essential style updates that you need to incorporate into your routine now. You’ll learn which trends you should be trying, why they’re great for the Southwest Florida lifestyle and how to make them your own. But never fear, you’re not embarking on your revitalization alone. Southwest Florida has experts in every aesthetic category waiting just around the corner, ready to guide you through your spring 2015 metamorphoses.

No-Makeup Makeup

Let’s begin with the bare minimum. One of the hottest new trends is no-makeup makeup. The nude face is becoming the new normal in beauty, seen on trendsetting runways like Chanel, Chloé and Jason Wu. It’s super simple to go with the barely there look; it’s all about enhancing your natural beauty with a minimal amount of product—think flushed cheeks, hidden dark circles, and just a touch of lip balm. Try Dior’s Addict Lip Glow, which self-adjusts to your chemistry. It’s all about beautiful skin, so be sure to book your facials through summer.

Lustrous Lashes

Why not toss that clumpy tube of mascara and go for faux lashes, made of mink, silk or synthetic? You can either have them applied by a professional as individual extensions or go old-school with a faux flutter strip, the way Elizabeth Taylor did back in the day. This seasonless trend keeps gathering momentum, and the lust for lashes is at an alltime high. Whether you’re off to the gym or primped for a black-tie event, your eyes will always look made up and pair nicely with the no-makeup look. Absolutely an A-list beauty essential.

Nail Magic

This season the new guard in nail art is the negative space mani. Rock the style that is created by allowing un-colored nails to peep through bold lacquers, giving the illusion of floating hues against a naked nail bed. Design your digits with complex patterns or subtle simplistic cutouts for a peek-a-boo effect. So, there it is‌even nails can be sexy.

AFTER TRISH McEVOY BROW PerFECTOR

Brows Now

If there’s one trend that should be universally adopted, it’s a well-groomed brow. The right arches have the power to transform your face, improve overall symmetry and add instant eyelift, no anesthesia required. But one brow shape does not fit all. Pop by your favorite beauty counter for a quick tutorial on how to shape and tame that brow—all you need is a steady hand and a brow pencil with a built-in brush. Then set your work with Trish McEvoy’s waxbased Brow Perfector for all-day perfection.

Spa zzz

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure—it’s true for beauty, too. Don’t let your body (and your mind) get so rundown that you need drastic measures to feel healthy and vital again. Look for spa treatments emphasizing prevention and wellness.

Stress-reducing massages and wraps do more than provide momentary relief, and medically based procedures like IV drips and health-boosting injections can rejuvenate from the inside out, and keep you from needing more surface work in the future.

Chances are, you’ve been stuck in the same old style too long. If that’s true, it’s time to change your locks, right now. One of the latest trends in hair that’s taking red carpets by storm is called the Lob (read: longer bob)—a modern take on the classic with a mussed-up style. Think Sienna Miller, Emma Stone and Emily Blunt. Almost anyone can take on this style that varies in length from chin to shoulder. Not only is it an easy breezy five-minute hairstyle, it’s also a perfect transitional cut if you’re considering a short ’do for our inevitably warm tropical weather. Expect to see a lot more of this style in 2015.

Call it the “Selfie Effect.” Facial plastic surgery is on the rise, but not just the all-out procedures of the past. In 2015, state-of-the-art precision means a little can go a long way. Since eyes are your biggest attention grabbers, make them shine: Consider blepharoplasty to remove saggy eyelids and under-eye circles. Laser peels can penetrate deep and refresh your skin for years to come.

Fillers and fat transfers are the new go-to for easy, efficient and long-lasting updates to your face.

You’ll still look like you in your profile pic, just a newer you.

TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS

Q: A:

HOW DO I FIND A GOOD SKIN CARE THERAPIST? I would suggest looking at the history of that esthetician. Education and quality of work are key. Good skin comes from proper nutrition and hormone balance.

Be sure your esthetician understands the effect of these two things on the aging of the skin. Referral from a friend doesn’t hurt, either. —Mary McAndrews, Lasting Looks of Sarasota

Q: A:

HOW DO I PICK A HIGH QUALITY OMEGA-3 SUPPLEMENT? Make sure the supplement provides an effective dose of omega-3; most studies suggest adults need at least 2000mg of EPA/DHA omega-3 every day to experience measurable benefits. Also, to evaluate the product’s freshness, note the taste and smell. A truly fresh omega-3 oil has no fishy taste or smell, just like fresh fish. —Mary-Elise Martinsen, Omega 3 Innovations
