Matching your makeup to your wardrobe can be a very flattering when done correctly and atrocious when done wrong. So to help guide you on matching your cosmetics and clothing, we've put together some simple tips for pulling off a regal look, royal or not.
DO:
WEAR COMPLEMENTARY COLORS
Pinks
and browns are a combination fit for a queen. To get a wearable smoky
eye, apply a light pink shade over the entire lid, and then use a
small, pointed brush to apply a mauve shade in the crease. Blend well
and complete the look by adding a touch of brown shadow on the outer
corners of the eye. Finish with a pretty pink and brown blush.
DO:
EMBRACE SHIMMER
Silver
is such a sexy shade on both your body and your eyes. When wearing a
shimmery color like silver or gold, don’t be afraid to add a little
sparkle to your makeup, too. The trick is to apply it lightly —
don’t overdo it. A light shimmer powder on the cheeks, will make
you look ethereal and gorgeous (just be sure to play down the rest of
your features when accentuating with shimmer).
DO:
SAY YES TO YELLOW, BUT THINK PINK!
Yellow
can be fun and fashionable, but it can also wash you out. So think
pink, but keep the overall colors soft and subtle.
DON’T:
AVOID COLOR ALTOGETHER
White
is such a clean and bright shade to wear during all seasons, but
without a little color, you’ll look less sunny and more mummy. When
wearing all white, be sure to add a pop of color in both your
accessories and your makeup. Try a bold lip, or even a bright eye
shadow. Going too pale (especially for bleached blondes) will leave
you looking washed out and sickly.
DON’T:
BE TOO LITERAL
When
matching your makeup to your clothes, stick to one feature only, and
then play down the rest. And when it comes to your hair, if you need
to play with color, try a clip-on extension that complements your own
hair color.
