Make-up trend: Think purple!

Pantone, the authority on all things colour, recently named a fuchsia-purple hue, officially known as 'Radiant Orchid' as 2014's Colour of the Year - especially for your make-up scheme.


So, let the shades of orchid, lilac and lavender rule your make-up palette this year. These shades can instantly brighten your face. The prettiest way to tackle the trend is by applying a wash of eyeshadow, which is both dressy and a bit adventurous. Or try a pop of colour along your lash line using a wet purple liner. And if you want those intense, piercing eyes, go for the purple smokey-eye look with nude lips. If you're passionate about purple, go full-on and sport deep purple on your lips and nails. 


The colour screams 'sexy' and if worn well, can make a woman look drop-dead gorgeous.

 Tip: 

Go easy on the amount of eyeshadow you're applying. A light, blurred effect is preferred over a dark, dramatic look.
