Pretty in Pink Makeup

Don’t we all feel pretty in pink? Pink makeup is perhaps one of the most celebrated looks in the history of beauty, and for good reason. On any complexion – from deep to pale, warm to cool – pink is uniquely flattering, in a league of its own where other colors just can’t compete. That’s because pink gives a natural flush to skin that implies healthy circulation and a vibrance that’s both visually pleasing and complementary to any complexion.

If you believe in the power of pink makeup and how it can perfectly flatter your complexion, you’re probably wondering which particular pink shades are worthy of your attentions. We’ve compiled our

Blush, almost by definition, means pink. The word itself implies a flushing of blood to just beneath the surface of our skin, causing our cheeks to glow pink. Commonly thought of as a sign of emotional upset, blushing can also be a sign of healthy blood flow, happiness, and excitement. This is how we choose to use our blush: to give our cheeks a healthy, vivacious flush of color when we’re feeling a bit sallow or pale.

Using a soft, fluffy blush brush with semi-loose bristles and a fruit pigmented® blush, you can recreate this healthy flush with just one or two quick swipes.

A liquid lip is simple and sweet when it comes to shades of pink. A rosy undertone with a glossy finish is nothing short of bubble-gum-sweet perfection – perfect for summer days, first dates, understated work looks, and everything in between. Gloss adds an essense of whimsy and playfulness to your look, and if you opt for full-pigment pink lip colors with a glossy finish, they’ll look much more grown-up than your Barbie glosses of junior high.
