The Bland and the Beautiful

The sky has darkened and so has your mood as your summer glow becomes a distant dream. Don’t let dreary days inhibit your unique beauty! Your face can be a fresh pallet for the changing of the seasons with these simple solutions:

1) Ravishing Raven: Nothing looks lovelier against pale skin than darker locks. Take your tresses to a darker place by coloring your hair in a darker or warmer shade for the winter season. A semi-permanent hue to try at home, like Garnier HerbaShine Color Creme with Bamboo Extract, washes out in 28 shampoos and, with it’s no ammonia formula, is less likely to damage your hair. But don’t go extremely dark! Going Gothic might exacerbate the winter blues!

2) Pretty Pout: Play up that old Hollywood hair with a merry and berry tone on your lips. Choose a lip-color in a deeper shade than you’d normally apply, like Mary Kay Berry Luxe Lipstick, which has a hint of shimmer and plenty of moisture for those cold weather crackle-lips.

3) Colorful Decolletage: Not a fan of bright make-up? Scarves in every texture and color are a practical and perfect way to bring color to your lovely lightness. Choose from warm peaches to rich jewel tones for maximum color contrast.

4) Keep it Glowing: Pallor doesn’t mean pasty. Frost yourself with a hint of glow with bronzers and skin illuminators such as Bonne Bell gelbronze. But don’t go over-glowed, Rudolph! Limit application to slight glimmer above the brow-bone, bridge of the nose and apples of the cheeks

Voila! Use these tips to go from washed-out to work-of-art. Before you know it, you’ll go from summer dreams to dreaming of a whiter Christmas.
