Wearable Spring 2011 Runway Beauty

Stella McCartney
All Natural, Clean Face
Play up your natural beauty with just a hint of tinted moisturizer (try Clinique Moisture Sheer Tint SPF 15) and some lip balm with a bite of color (try Laura Mercier HydraTint SPF 15, my favorite!) topped off with light blush  (try Covergirl's Cheekers Blush in Rose Silk, it's universally flattering!)

Preen
Pastel Eyes
Keep your face and lips natural and play up your eye color with a hint of pastel shadow on the corners of your eyes

Lanvin
Big Lashes
Pump up the volume with simple skin and lips and big, voluminous lashes. 
If you are going to drop big money on any makeup product, mascara, concealer or foundation. They make a huge difference. 

Jil Sander
Hot Pink Smooch
Feeling a little bold? Tired of the same red lips? Try a bubblegum pink! (Try Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick in Backstage Bambi) The best way to do this is to take a hot pink lip liner (Stila Long Wear Lip Liner in Hot Pink) and line the outside of your lips to help the stick stay inside that border. The liner doesn't have to be the exact color of the stick but as close as possible is good. Then take your lipstick and fill in only the top half of your lips. Smooch and together and go!

Hermes
Lined Eyes
This look is slightly more complex. First you'll want to take a liquid liner (my favorite is Covergirl Line Exact Liquid Liner) and line your upper lid with a very thin line all the way from the edge of your lid to the corner of your eye. Next, take a flat liner brush (I use the Trish McEvoy Eye Definer/Shadow Liner Brush #11) and lightly wet the brush so it's only damp. I usually do this by spraying the brush with a water from a spritzer. Then take the damp brush and press it into black eyeshadow (Covergirl Eye Enhancers Shadow in Shimmering Onyx) and press it over the liquid liner only from the inner edge of the color of your eye, making a thicker line all the way to the edge of your eye but never thick enough to get into the crease. Next take a good pencil liner (Sephora Collection Nano Eyeliner in Midnight Black 01) and line the bottom waterline all the way from the outer edge to the inner corner. Careful to do all of this with a light hand or you could end up like a raccoon! If you do put too much on, a bit of Baby Oil on the end of Q-Tip can make your lines thinner.
