neutral zone
With all of the smoky eyes and groomed brows showing up this spring, your face needs to find some neutral ground. Laura Mercier just came out with a new Mineral Powder that promises a luminous veil on the skin. You can use it alone or over foundation for an even skin tone and natural glow. Laura Mercier Mineral Powder, $35, Neiman Marcus
sun-kissed
On the other hand, if you want your skin to look like you've spent hours in the sun, Clinique has come out with a sheer liquid highlighter that gives skin a luminous and sun-kissed glow. Mix it with your foundation or your moisturizer to get that days-in-the-sun look. Up-lighting Liquid Illuminator comes in four colors: bronze for a warm, golden tan; natural for a sheer, luminous nude; peach for a golden peachy glow; and blush for a barely there rosy pink. Clinique Up-lighting Liquid Illuminator, $22.50, Clinique boutique
top seller
One way to get all of the best-sellers in a product line is to go out and buy each product individually. The other -- and much better way -- is to find all you want in one convenient palette. NARS Cosmetics decided to pull together all its top-sellers in its new 9941 Artist Palette, which includes eye shadows in India Song (I), Night Star, Night Clubbing and Ondine; blushes in Copacabana and Malibu; and lip colors in Honolulu Honey, Dolce Vita, Gipsy and Trans Siberian. Just what you need, application anywhere, any time. NARS Cosmetics 9941 Artist Palette, $60, Sephora
be less sensitive
Those of you with sensitive skin understand the difficulty of finding a peel that will work for you at home. DDF came out with its Ultra-Lite Peel with Elm Extract, a gentle, leave-on peel that exfoliates and soothes sensitive skin with anti-inflammatory ingredients. Arginine Glycolate and Elm Extract help exfoliate, refine and help renew your skin. DDF Ultra-Lite Peel with Elm Extract, $40, Canyon Ranch
