Put Some Spring in Your Step With Our March Must Haves

If there is one beauty tip I learned backstage at New York Fashion Week, it's that great makeup starts with skin care. Makeup artists would massage moisturizer into models' faces before applying concealer or foundation. So, I've taken to using Origins Original Skin Renewal Serum ($39) at home for a similar dewy effect. This is one product targeted at 20-somethings, which means it was created with late nights and tequila binges in mind. The willow bark helps get rid of dullness, and algae shrinks enlarged pores. But I love how the silky serum makes my foundation melt into my skin.
