SHADES OF WINTER
Winter is all about keeping skin hydrated, healthy and plumped. As our tan begins fade, our makeup should also change to compliment our lighter skin tones. Shades such as soft pinks, corals, mauves, rose golds, taupes and warm earthy tones will all be on trend this season. It’s all about luminous skin with a flush of colour on the cheeks that compliments our hair tones and eye colour.
As our skin does tend to loose that golden glow that it radiates in summer, it is important to select softer makeup hues to bring your features to life, rather than washing you out.

WINTER GLOW:

“In order to maintain that healthy glow during winter, my top tip is to boost hydration in order to prevent skin from becoming dry and looking flat. Skin illuminators and hydrators are the best way to plump and protect your complexion during the colder months. I love the fact that all of our foundations and primers are packed with essential vitamins and minerals that nourish your skin while preventing damage from the sun and other age aggressors. My must haves – I can’t live without my Radiant Glow Illuminator and Illuminating Bronzer in Sun Goddess during the winter months! My favourite shades are Lip Velvet in Pink Truffle and Glam Lipstick in Go Nude. My go to blush shade is Baked Bronzer in Golden Goddess – I use this as my winter eye shadow too!”
