When I think of winter make-up I always think of dark colours - sultry reds, black kohl smokey eyes and deep purples. Sometimes these looks can look really dramatic against my pale skin and so I tend to shy away from these looks (although it depends on the occasion of course!). Instead I have found that an all-pink look is much more wearable. The trick is to find pink shades that are a similar colour (so you don't end up looking like a clown) and to make sure that the colour you use compliments your skin tone. Rosy tones are usually great pale skin. I chose Elizabeth Arden in Iridescent Pink, P.S Love Blusher Stick (found at Primark) and Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Pout. If you're nervous about doing an all pink look, slowly work up the colour. I apply a small amount of blush and rub it in with my fingers and will add more if I feel like I need it, alternatively just leave out the blush completely.

I love dark red lips against my pale skin, but you are right for an everyday I love more nudes and pinks.
ReplyDeleteGreat post.

I've never been much of a pink fan but I think it's time to convert! I'm going to be trying some more pinkish colours, slowly though!

I'm the same with darker tones in both lipstick and blush, when you're very fair skinned they just look like too much.
