Trend Alert: Butterfly-Embossed Makeup

Butterflies are naturally synonymous with Spring.

Butterflies are naturally synonymous with Spring. After sitting cocooned in sweaters and blankets all winter long, we get out the colorful cosmetics and flutter out at the first signs of sunshine. So it's fitting that the creatures are showing up in Spring makeup with butterfly imagery stamped right onto eye shadows. Here are two ways to get your butterfly fix.

A few days ago, I introduced you to Luscious Cosmetics, which makes a line of finely milled eye shadows called Social Butterfly Eye Velvets ($19). These delicate, shimmery shades work more like cream shadows, so they won't crease or feather throughout the day. The eye velvets come in three gorgeous colors: Venice, Malibu, and Hermosa.

I've just discovered this flirty and fabulous line of makeup and nail polish called Luscious Cosmetics. Founded three years ago, the collection is best known for its Crystal Nail Lacquers, 11 beach-inspired polishes that come with color-coordinated Swarovski crystals in the cap.

Owner and creator Charity Vance developed the line of multi-use products for modern girls on the go who want to keep their makeup simple but sexy.

She believes in indulging yourself with quality products that have luxurious textures, colors, smells, and tastes. To read about the products in the line, read more
