Since winter doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon, it’s time to start getting into a warmer state of mind by adding a little colour to your look.
Lips
Draw attention your pout with a pop of a brilliant shade – think bright reds, pinks and corals. To really make your lips stand out, avoid using too much colour on your eyes so all focus goes to the bold shade on your lips.
My picks: Maybelline New York Color Sensational Vivids Lipcolor in Vibrant Mandarin, Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in 06 Carina
Eyes
If the runway looks for SS 2013 were any indication, spring is a time to add a little drama to your eyes. Take a cue from Carly Rae Jepsen and add some blue to your lids – it’s perfect for giving eyes a boost and will make any eye colour pop. Swipe a pale blue shade across your eyelids or add a line of navy under your lower lash line to make your eyes really stand out.
My picks: Essence Eyeshadow in 69 Here I Am!, Maybelline New York Color Tattoo Metal 24 HR Eyeshadow in 75 Electric Blue
Nails
Painting your nails an eye-catching shade is the easiest and safest way to have some fun with colour. To help you escape from the grays of winter, try adding a bold polish to complement your outfit like Pippa Middleton.
My picks: Bourjois So Laque! Ultra Shine Nail Enamel in 63 Purple Fiction, Nicole by OPI Nail Lacquer in Please Red-Cycle
Cheeks
There’s never been a better time to add a bright flush to your cheeks. Adding a cheerful pink or coral blush to your look is a great way to warm up your face and get glowing in the middle of winter.
