Catwalks and denim aren't the only things sporting botanical themes this season; beauty companies have also picked up on the floral trend. Featured in everything from single-note fragrances to special packaging to bright pink and red shades for lips, cheeks, and nails, these cheerful garden varieties are making spring a very feminine season. So, whether it's roses, peonies, orchids, or the lotus flower, floral-based scents and colors are this season's "it" style. Here are a few favorites:
The queen of flowers—the rose—shows off both its sultry and sweet sides with Diptyque’s roll-on Eau Rose fragrance (pictured right), which unveils different layers of scent throughout the day. Plus, the compact size is perfect for travel.
Find it: $48, shop.nordstrom.com [3] or bluemercury.com [4]
Tarte Maracuja Divine Shine Lip Gloss (pictured above) offers both high shine and hydration in a wide range of hues.
Find it: $21, sephora.com [6]
Blush was a key beauty trend on spring runways (like at Ralph Lauren and Tracy Reese), and Sisley’s illuminating L'Orchidee Bronzer (pictured left) gives a healthy peach glow accented with golden flecks.
