Ready to refresh your makeup routine? Learn how to incorporate seasonal colours into your look for a vibrant, on-trend finish.
The ritual, step by step
- Assess Seasonal Palette Start by identifying the colours typically associated with the current season. For instance, warm tones like oranges and golds in summer or cool tones like deep blues and purples in winter. This gives you a foundation for your makeup choices.
- Choose a Key Shade Pick one standout colour to act as your focal point. This could be a bold lipstick or an eyeshadow that reflects the seasonal palette. This shade should enhance your features and tie your look together.
- Blend with Neutrals To avoid overwhelming your look, blend your chosen seasonal colour with neutral shades. This could involve using a beige or soft brown eyeshadow to soften a vibrant colour or pairing a bright lip with minimal eye makeup.
- Experiment with Textures Don’t just stick to matte finishes. Experiment with shimmers or glosses to add depth and dimension to your seasonal look. A shimmery eyeshadow or a glossy lip can elevate your makeup game.
- Adjust for Skin Tone Make sure to adjust your seasonal colours to suit your skin tone. Warmer skin tones may shine with golds and corals, while cooler skin tones can rock silvers and berry shades. Always test how the colour complements your complexion.
Where people go wrong
One common mistake is overloading your look with too many bright colours at once. Another is choosing shades that clash with your skin tone. Lastly, many forget to blend seasonal colours into everyday looks.
