Spring is finally here and you know what means right? Do some spring cleaning and switch a few things in our makeup bags. I just got rid of a lot of expired beauty products because I never had the opportunity to use them during the pandemic so it’s not only time to restock but also to try some new products.
Have you ever visited the beauty section of Nordstrom, if you haven’t, you should. They have many of the top beauty brands in a wide range of shades and colors. I visit the store to seek the assistance of a Nordstrom beauty advisor when I am ready to try new products but, when it comes to my go-to’s, the site comes in handy.
Today, I’m sharing a few spring makeup staples I highly recommend. The list of products below comes in a wide range, however, I wanted to focus on the ones that work for dark skin women because as you know the struggle to find products for our skin tone is real. Also, if you look at my image above I decided to share a non-airbrushed photo because this is what makeup looks like without amazing lighting and an airbrush.
Best Foundation for Dark Skin Women
I never knew there would be a day when I will have loads of foundations to choose from because growing up in Mali we probably had like two shades. I currently alternate between the MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation Broad-Spectrum SPF 15 and Nars Sheer Glow Foundation. Here is a list of other foundations from Nordstrom that are perfect dark skin women.
Best Blushes for Dark Skin Women
Just like foundations, blushes were one the hardest makeup to find growing up. Let’s talk about a few I love. If you are looking for a long-wearing, sheer powder blush try the Laura Mercier Blush Color Infusion Powder Blush in Pomegranate. Try Nars blush in Taj Mahal if you are looking to add an instant tropical glow to your makeup. MAC Mineralize Blush is one of my favorite blushes for Spring, I promise you won’t regret this one.
Best Spring Lipsticks for Dark Skin Women
When it comes to spring lips the brighter the better. The masks are coming off and I am ready to wear all the cute colors. These are some of my favorites.
These are just a few of my favorite makeup from Nordstrom. I cannot wait to share more with you in later posts. Happy Spring!
