Waiting for spring is the darnest thing, but cosmetics are here to help our pale, doughy skin look as if we had full eight hour sleep.

Christine from Bon Bons in the Bath loves the new Clinique Fresh Bloom line, which promises to give you soft, air-kissed radiance. I am most interested in allover Fresh Bloom color:

"The collection is a beauty indeed. Just check out the Fresh Bloom Allover Color for the face, which is a work of art in itself. It's very reminiscent of the Yves Saint Laurent Opium Makeup Palette from this past Fall, but I prefer the Clinique version for its softness and femininity. This is neat as you can either select one color to use, or just swirl your brush through all of them for a blend."

The allover color is available in three shades: posy, peony and plum poppy. Get yours at Nordstrom for $29.50
