As New York Fashion week draws to a close, we've had so much fun this week making lists of our favourite looks and colour palettes from the spring '12 shows.  From gorgeous coral and pink lips to the neutrals featured in so many shows, here’s our rundown of what we loved most, and we'll be stocking up our makeup bags with for Spring!

One look which we've been noticing emerge over the past few months and now fashion week photos have confirmed it, is that this season is all about barely-there-looking makeup and healthy glowing skin!

Bright lips were still a focus for some shows however many designers and most stylish celebrities were opting for more subtle tinted lip colours. We'd have to agree that tints are definitely growing in popularity. Longer wearing and perfect for customising the intensity, one of the most popular colours with the girls at jane iredale Australia head office right now is the jane iredale Lip Fixation in Fascination. It gives that perfect rosy pink tone (as seen in the Carolina Herrera S/S '12 show). You can apply it once for a subtle tint, or simply layer the colour for a more vibrant hue.

When it comes to cheeks, it’s all about blush in pretty coral, pink and peach shades applied to the apples of your cheeks. If you want more of a minimal sun kissed glow, opt for a light bronzer to contour the cheeks.

Another important thing to remember is that even if you’re not on holidays, you want to look like you are! Now is the time to make sure you're stocked up with Tantasia™  and the perfect bronzer.  It’s all about looking healthy, natural and glowing!

Below are our favouite celebrity looks from NY Fashion Week...



Naomi Watts and Uma Thurman front row for the CALVIN KLEIN Women's Spring 2012 Fashion Show. Both of their natural barely-there makeup is understated yet perfectly polished. The perfect day-time makeup.



Victoria Justice looking absolutely divine at the Badgley Mischka show. Her flawless complexion, minimal eye makeup and bold lips are perfectly balanced.

Everyone here at jane iredale Australia is going absolutely ga-ga over this photo. We've all been madly trying to find the perfect colour match to replicate Victoria's bold lips and we've come to the conclusion that the jane iredale Lip Crayon in Juicy will do the trick. For her flawless matt complexion, use the PurePressed® Base, as a  foundation, powder, concealer and sunscreen all in one with diffusing properties to make the skin look flawless, healthy and younger.
