Trends for Spring/Summer

Here are some of the colour trends I am looking forward to for Spring/Summer!  
Well who isn't looking forward to Spring and Summer!
I love wearing bright colours!  Everyone can rock these colours...don't be afraid to venture out.
Start with coloured liner if you feel eyeshadows are a bit too much, or lip gloss if lipstick is too bright for you. 
Trish Tip:  Use lots of mascara if wearing eyeshadows without liner.  If wearing colour on the eyes use a neutral lip shade.  Same with lips, if using a bright lip colour, keep eyes neutral.


Eyes







Greens - especially Lime Green









Purples

Feel free to mix purple shades with teal shades for a Peacock look which is very hot this season










Denim / Blue shades
Think of your blue jeans.

Lips













Mango shades













Pink Orchid / Fuschia shades


 Watermelon Lipgloss

OPI Black Shatter - My new favorite nail polish and review...

If you know me you know that I LOVE nail polish and getting my nails painted every Friday at lunch.
I found this nail polish on a website and went on a search to find it.  Took me a couple weeks because it was sold out everywhere, but I finally put my name on a waiting list.  (Yes I am weird, but I LOVE new colours and trends in nail polish). They emailed me and I went right after work to get it. 
So to use this you need a base coat of colour, preferably an opaque light shade (I used silver), wait for it to dry and apply one coat of the black shatter.  Almost instantly the black breaks up (shatters) to reveal the colour underneath.  Every finger is a different pattern. If you want, wait until fully dry and add a clear top coat.
Price: $9.95 - $17.95 CDN (depending how greedy the store is)
For this review I give the OPI Black Shatter nail polish 4.5 out of 5 ;)
