Pink and nude make up:
Stay away from dark lip colours and eye pencil or eye-shadows. Opt for nude, pinks, light brown and peaches to get the natural look. Just go for kohl look and dab a little gloss to you lips, this look is ideal for the college-goers or to work. You can also opt for bright pink nail paint and soft pink lips; it gives out the perfect balance.
Things to keep in mind:
When buying dresses or tops in contrasting shades, always keep your skin tone in mind. Also try to choose from linen, cotton, muls and light weight fabrics rather than the heavier variety. Also remember, cropped jackets are a good way to substitute blazers on a warm day. Add a scarf to your regular blouse, top, dress and turn it into an evening wear. Do not leave your house without your daily doze of sun-screen lotion, sunglasses, fun accessories, sling bag or boho bag and mild scent. When using one bright piece, try keeping the others neutral. This way it will make the outfit look balanced and will also let just one piece grab all the attention Keep the flip-flops, flats, osho chappals, tie-up shoes handy to pair them with your outfits. Drink a lot of water to hydrate yourself and work out to add the extra glow to your skin. Make sure your hands and legs are well groomed. Your hair should be away from the face, ideally be tied into a bun or ponytail. Refrain from keeping them open and get the mint flavoured shampoo to keep your tresses fresh.
So what are you girls waiting for, step up and step out in style!
