The Spring season is a coming out party of sorts, a return to vibrance after months spent indoors. And there’s no better way to face longer days — and nights! — than adorned in cheerful hues. For impactful spring beauty, choose one unexpected shade, monochromatically or focused on a single feature, and set it against an otherwise clean face, says makeup artist Nick Barose. “It’s a modern way to wear color,” says the pro, who used makeup by La Beauté Louis Vuitton to create the looks here. “The effect is dramatic, but still approachable.”

For a bold, saturated finish, Barose suggests prepping skin with primer before makeup. Intensify pigment by pressing color into lips in “thin layers so it doesn’t get cakey,” Barose advises. For eyes, sweep shadow on with a wet brush, dipped in water or a mixing medium. The result: Ultra-luxurious looks that scream look at me.
