Spring is usually a time for the softer shades, pinkier cheeks, flowery eyelids and dewy lips that make you look nothing short of a fairy or an angel. But this year, things seem different, when trees are blooming alright, but we are seeing pale blush-less cheeks, either snow-white or dark crimson lips, and the black smokey eye trend. Or even plain eyes, sans-liner. With a bare face.

I get a lot of requests for doing articles on make up looks and trends. I have already done a post on Spring “romantic” natural makeup look, which you can read here:

And a video on a similar natural Spring look, this one with a fun, girly twist:

But today I want to focus on runway-inspired trends. Lots of trends have caught my attention this year for Spring/Summer 2015 – the above-mentioned ones. Here’s one that I sort of loved – The charcoal black smokey eye look with nude lips. Check it out on the runway:

This black smokey eye look is from Chanel Spring March, Ready-to-Wear SS 2015 collection. I like this simple girly look with a an overly charcoal edge. Very cool and casual.

This rockstar chic look was seen at Tom Ford’s  New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015 runway collection. I like how this black smokey eye seems like a casual I-don’t-care type girl, who was up all night partying, and that’s why has smudged eye shadow and no lipstick, dishevelled hair. Like, whatever!

Here are some products I would use to create this look:
