Makeup Guru

Welcome to February, dear readers. It’s officially the most depressing month of the year. It’s around this time that we start going a little stir crazy and spend our indoor time playing dress up or experimenting with makeup to change things up a bit. Here, some super easy beauty ideas to entertain, rock for a while, or even make part of your regular regimen.

Try switching your blush, both in texture and color. If your usual tone is pink, go for something more orange. Try out a different finish by subbing your powder for a cream blush or a tint. [Nars cream blush, $25, and Benefit’s Benetint, $28, both at Sephora.com]
