Although pink, specifically rose quartz, was the color chosen by Pantone as the king of 2016, we have to admit that this color is always a trend. Whether on the cheeks, on the lips or giving a sweet touch to your eyes, pink is still a basic and women always trust it thanks to its rejuvenating effect.
But does this color look good on everyone? Just as a haircut does not favor one woman the same as another, the same thing happens with makeup. Light pink tones are ideal if you have light skin and hair.
Does this mean that if I am a brunette I cannot use pink? No, you just have to choose a more intense or darker tone.
Rouge
If we know that showing off rosy cheeks is a sign of good health, why not apply a touch to our makeup? If your skin is fair, using a pink blush will sweeten your features. And if you also apply illuminating powders on the cheeks, you will achieve an even more radiant appearance. Avoid very intense and warm tones, such as orange or gold. At most, go for peach (peach hue).
For a natural result, never go overboard with quantity. And if you want to enhance the cheekbone, apply it upwards, towards the ear.
A trick. Put your index finger under the center of the eye. Place your other index finger extended below the nose. Where they intersect is where you have to start applying the blush.
Lipstick
Although there is a wide variety of shades of pink, each type of skin supports one or the other better.
- Light skins. Go for light or fiery pinks, like fuchsia. And for the night, dare with the most aubergine tones.
- Medium skins. In this case, dark pink, cherry color, and hot pink are the most flattering for you.
- Dark skin You who can dare with the most electric roses.
Eyeshadow
In this case, the shades of pink tones favor everyone, regardless of eye color. The lighter the hue, the brighter you will give your look. For evening looks, opt for more intense and powerful shadows, and play with pink as an illuminator, that is, giving a touch of shadow in a very light tone just below the arch of the eyebrow.
Nail polish
In this section we believe that anything goes. Use a light pink or coral nail polish if you want to sweeten your look. If you are more daring, combine different shades of pink in the same hand, or do not give up the fuchsias and electric pinks to give more cane to your outfit. And if you want to be the center of attention, add a stick to your nails and get ready to succeed!
Pink continues to hit hard this year and not only in beauty, in fashion it also seems that it will stay with us for a while. Do not miss the trends and learn to wear this color without looking corny.
