Beauty expert Rachel from @rachel_de_oliveria has given us a sneak peek into what’s in her bag – all the beauty products she’s obsessed with this spring!

Rachel says, “Cloud skin is in.” It’s basically softly mattified makeup – a hybrid style that is in between dewy and matte complexions. Not quite shine free or full shine, it's giving a naturally plump look to the skin. All part of the skinification of makeup.

Rachel notes that she loves keeping her shine at bay so always carries a pressed powder, specifically the L'Oreal True Match Powder available from Coles, and a handy travel makeup brush, in her bag.

Similar products we also love from **Coles** include Maybelline’s Fit Me Matte & Poreless Pressed Powder and Rimmel’s Stay Matte Pressed Peach Glow.

The next product she has in her bag is also available at Coles - L'Oreal True Match Blush 160 Peach.

Rachel’s always reaching for the peach and melon shades in this blush! This is a must-have for her this spring. Using it not only on her cheeks but also on her eyes. We love a versatile product!

Another fan favourite available from **Coles **to add to your spring beauty mix is Rimmel’s London Maxi Blush #003 Wild Card

Have you kept your lips neutral this winter? It’s time to whip out some big bold colours.

Bright cherry lips are making a comeback this spring and Rachel’s found a perfect shade of Red-Hot you can find at **Coles **in the Maybelline Superstay Vinyl Ink Longwear Liquid Lipstick.

Rachel is also loving a claw clip which is all the rage at the moment with so many ways to style them.

Rach uses her claw clip to pop her hair in a natural messy quick updo. She notes they’re great because you never know when you might want to put your hair up, especially in the warmer weather!

You can also use a claw clip to slick back the hair with the inclusion of a bit of gel, or even go for a half-up, half-down look too.

Find a replication of her claw clip at Target. Look for a pink pewter translucent clawed hair clip or other fun pops of colour.

Lastly, she loves to indulge in a new season scent. Rach has chosen Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs as her spring pick, “It’s floral, fruity and always makes me feel fresh as a daisy – I just love it!”

Find your own perfect spring scent at Blooms The Chemist.
