What is the one look you can wear even if you went from wavy blonde curls to pin-straight brunette hair like our duchess Fergie? Peach makeup!

Wearing hues of soft peaches not only gives off a sweet, youthful look, but it goes well with all skin tones and hair color. Plus it is great for both the warm and cold seasons (peach can perk up a dull complexion like no other), which means you get to spend your money elsewhere even if you decide to change your hair color or skin tone!

Since Barbie is celebrating her 50th birthday this month, I just have to blog about the beauty icon!

To pull a Barbie,

* Think PINK – lots and lots of it. Afterall, pink IS the epitome of the “girly girl”, just like Barbie.

* Big doll eyes. This can be achieved by using light shimmery eyeshadows on the eyes, eyeliner on top and thick lashes. Rimming your lower lash line with a white or flesh-colored pencil will help make your eyes appear wider as well. For an extra pop, try a pair of circle lenses.

* Sweet pink cheeks. Swirl a medium pink blush like MAC Pink Swoon onto the apples/cheekbones with a big blush brush in a buffing motion so it really blends into your skin.

* Luscious pink lips. Remember to exfoliate your lips with an old toothbrush and apply a generous layer of lip balm before you apply any lip color.

* A confident attitude. We all know confidence = sexy.

Spring is the best time to whip out those bright colors that were kept hidden in the drawers after the long cold winter and turquoise is my all-time favorite.

While turquoise looks best against darker skin tones and makes brown eyes pop, it will look good on lighter eyes and paler skin as well. Just make sure you pick one that has a metallic or satiny finish. Matte turquoise can look dated.

How To Wear Turquoise Eyeshadow
The combinations you can create with turquoise is endless. Check out the following pics straight from the runway for ideas.

At the Gucci S/S 2009 show, lead makeup artist Pat McGrath did a bold look with a rich metallic turquoise eyeshadow on the lid blended past the crease, a light green as a highlighter, lots of eyeliner and false lashes. She also highlighted the models’ cheekbones and cupid’s bow and added a soft pink lipgloss on the lips.
