If the last time you whipped out your trusty blue eye shadow was for the school disco, then it’s time to update your old palette with a new, more refined blue. From navy to turquoise, blue is back. When it comes to eye make-up of 2016, a hint of this colour is so in right now – whether that be drawn across your lids or brushed up your lashes, it’s the colour of the season.
Embrace an old trend with a new edge
Colour blocking isn’t only back in fashion, it’s back in beauty too and that means it needs to be back in your make-up bag. Revive your teenage self and embrace an old trend with a new edge. Turquoise blue is a shade that most people tend to be scared of if they’re going down the blue route. Granted, it’s a bit unconventional, but it actually works really well on lots of different skin tones and that’s why this trend can be for everyone.
Be sure to balance the bold appearance of a thick, electric blue liner with a fresh, otherwise-make-up-free face. This trend stands out well enough on its own, so there’s no need to overdo it with trying to apply too much make-up. Keep the skin fresh faced and moisturised to give that post-shower glow, creating the perfect clean canvas for the blue to stand out against.
Use different shapes and shades to keep the look interesting
A bright blue feline flick? Whyever not? It’s another great way to adapt this versatile trend and the perfect way to change up your cat-eye routine. Rotate in different shades of blue and various liner shapes to keep the look interesting. Think Studio 54 meets modern day diva!
We saw bold-coloured eye make-up attempt to creep through last season, but it was a firm fixture on the catwalks this season, and now it’s all blue everything! Everyone from Marc Jacobs to Missoni, Jenny Packham to Chanel, this is (literally) one of the coolest revivals of the Nineties (yes, Nineties again!).
There’s a shade for every individual style
One we’re all familiar with now is coconut oil. Plenty of research has shown that coconut oil restores dry hair and dry skin just as equally. Coconut oil is good for pretty much every element of your beauty regime, including teeth, nails and diet, as well as your hair and skin. Its pure contents provide you with the natural source of oil that you need.Other Images
