#SBBC Day 9 - Incorporating colour into your makeup

Heya my lovely readers!
Imagine, Day 9 already! Time flies when you are getting stuck into something!
Today's post is about how I would recommend working colour into your daily makeup.
For me the Golden Rule is - go for eyes or lips but never both if you are working with bold vibrant colours, if you go for both you more than likely will clash!
So..
Firstly, how to incorporate colour into your eye makeup? Well, besides going for the usual bright shadows I would suggest going for coloured mascara for a funky take on colour. I recently purchased these mascaras - Bourjois are brilliant for their quality products and these do not disappoint! I think these would bring a pop of colour to a natural eyeshadow!

Here is a swatch of the colour! 


However if you want something a little more striking than a slight hint of colour on the lashes I think the best way if introducing colour is a colourful eyeliner! My favourite liner has to be Urban Decay's 24 7 Glide On liners - they are so creamy smooth & the range of colours is just amazing!

If you applied a little natural nude shadow on then used one of these funky colours this would look brilliant!


So that's the eyes!
If you wanted to keep the eye makeup to a minimum you could incorporate colour into your face of the day by using a BOLD lip, and it doesn't even have to be red! 
Trying a berry pink (like Heaux from the RiRi loves MAC collection) would be great for Autumn 
Or if pink is more your thing you could always rock a bring lip using Rimmel Apocolips in Stellar (this has a slight coral colour to it)


Or, go crazy & use something like MAC's Violetta - a purple magenta! 


So, that's how I work colour into my makeup looks- how to you incorporate colour?
Thank you for reading, until tomorrow lovelies!

  4. I am terrible at incorporating colour into my makeup. I love the lipsticks as I think they would be easier to work in. Great post xx

    1. Coloured eye liner is probably the least scariest to start with, and then work your way towards a bold lip!
